It's not possible to give a full price list for all goods on this site, but it is possible to determine a rough "conversion factor" between common costs.

Spending power

Knowing the names of your currency is one thing but knowing what you can buy with it is another. Below is a simple chart of some common “adventurer” gear and their cost in the PHB vs their cost on Oberon.


Item ‘D&D’ cost ‘Oberon’ cost* Conversion
Dice set 1sp 1 Unari 1:1
Bedroll 1gp 10 Unari 1:1
Thieves' tools 25gp 50 Unari 5:1
Lute 35gp 90 Unari 4:1
Spellbook 50gp 150 Unari 5:1
Magnifying Glass 100gp 350 Unari 3:1


Item ‘D&D’ cost ‘Oberon’ cost* Conversion
Dagger 2gp 12 Unari 1.6:1
Battleaxe 10gp 60 Unari 1.6:1
Longsword 15gp 100 Unari 1.5:1
Rapier 25gp 150 Unari 1.6:1
Longbow 50gp 300 Unari 1.6:1
Greatsword 50gp 500 Unari 1:1


Item ‘D&D’ cost ‘Oberon’ cost* Conversion
Hide armour 10gp 50 Unari 2:1
Leather armour 10gp 75 Unari 1.3:1
Chain shirt 50gp 500 Unari 1:1
Breastplate 400gp 600 Unari 6.6:1
Chain mail 75gp 750 Unari 1:1
Plate armour 1500gp 5000 Unari 3:1


Does 1 Unari equal 1sp or not?

Kinda. Most of the time at least – it depends on the type of goods.


For ‘mundane’ items that the average man in the street has little need for, such as spell books, the supply to demand ratio makes the conversion rate range from 1 silver/unari, up to about 3 silver/unari. The value in unari is often less than you would expect from a straight 1:1 conversion.


Weapons are relatively plentiful among the populace as so many people serve in the Imperial Army and retain their gear after their service ends. These items are often passed on to relatives and tend to last for multiple generations. Hence the exchange rate for these items is a fairly consistent 1.6 silver/unari for items of around 30gp value, dropping to about 1 silver/unari for more expensive weapons.


For armour, fur and leather is plentiful and so the exchange rate is about 1.5 silver/unari. Steel is less easy to obtain and most armourers are in the employ of the Empire so good armour is rarer and hence the 1:1 conversion holds up better. Only at plate armour does the conversion rate drop to 3 silver/unari - plate armour is difficult to make but also not useful to most people.


So 1 Unari ranges from 1 to 3 silver, but does often equal 1 sp.
