Antecedentes: D & D 5e com um toque de punk a vapor.
Meu protagonista é um ladino changeling (pode assumir o papel de outras pessoas) com um pouco de mágica (Arcane Trickster). Minha divindade solicitou que eu semeie uma guilda de ladrões para atuar como uma rede de espiões que irão crescer lentamente à medida que o protagonista avança em sua aventura.
Nesta pergunta, gostaria de me concentrar em como poderia fazer isso sem atrapalhar o enredo principal ou outros na mesa. Eu quero fazer isso por diversão, mas não diminui a diversão que os outros estão tendo.
Na página 186-187, o PHB discute "Entre Aventuras" :
Between trips to dungeons and battles against ancient evils,
adventurers need time to rest, recuperate, and prepare for their next
adventure. Many adventurers also use this time to perform other tasks,
such as crafting arms and armor, performing research, or spending
their hard-earned gold.
In some cases, the passage of time is something that occurs with
little fanfare or description. When starting a new adventure, the DM
might simply declare that a certain amount of time has passed and
allow you to describe in general terms what your character has been
doing. At other times, the DM might want to keep track of just how
much time is passing as events beyond your perception stay in motion.
Embora isso não fale explicitamente sobre a semeadura de um super cult no submundo que você um dia usará para dominar o mundo, acho que esse seria o local apropriado para essa atividade, de modo a não causar interrupções. O que eu não sei é quanto investimento de tempo / dinheiro deve ir para isso.
De "Construindo uma fortaleza" (DMG, p. 128) - obrigado @ John:
A character can spend time between adventures building a stronghold. Before work can begin, the character must acquire a plot of land. If the estate lies within a kingdom or similar domain, the character will need a royal charter (a legal document granting permission to oversee the estate in the name of the crown), a land grant (a legal document bequeathing custody of the land to the character for as long as he or she remains loyal to the crown), or a deed (a legal document that serves as proof of ownership). Land can also be acquired by inheritance or other means. Royal charters and land grants are usually given by the crown as a reward for faithful service, although they can also be bought. Deeds can be bought or inherited. A small estate might sell for as little as 100 gp or as much as 1,000 gp. A large estate might cost 5,000 gp or more, if it can be bought at all.
Once the estate is secured, a character needs access to building materials and laborers. The Building a Stronghold table shows the cost of building the stronghold (including materials and labor) and the amount of time it takes, provided that the character is using downtime to oversee construction. Work can continue while the character is away, but each day the character is away adds 3 days to the construction time.

Como posso fazer isso dentro das regras do D & D 5e sem atrapalhar o jogo existente?
