Addis' design is (loosely) inspired by Mel Medarda. She's a force to be reckoned with.
But seriously, what is back pay ? I have no clue
Probably some extra money for the work she has done.
Huh. It would make sense. More money for the special Konsi fun fund then
It's not shown in the comic, but Konsi puts that pay into a charity fund in the temple that funds a soup kitchen in the Field Ward.
Of course XD I expected nothing short of it.
Althought as a smithing cleric with expensive spells to use, Im surprised she still got as much left.
We-ell... we've got about 100k stashed between the party from adventures... the pay of a priestess isn't going to be much in comparison.
We've been on a lot of adventures with large payouts, and Konsi's not had much time to smith stuff - and some of the stuff she's made has sold for insane amounts of cash.
What level is she? If she's not already, you might consider the 5th edition version of the old Dwemersmith prestige class. Sounds like she's got all the prerequisites, and spending way less time, money, and XP on magic items is useful for making ridiculously overpowered magic items :)
Ah so... the "5th edition version" of prestige classes is "we removed the concept of prestige classes"
Artificer does have some features that reduce the cost and time to make magic items... but in Konsi's case, there's four problems with taking the artificer class as a multiclass.
In the comic here, she's level 9.
