Town Finance Minister

A faction's Finance Minister functions and abilities are as follows:

• The Finance Minister may view the city treasury, purchase faction shopkeepers, or set the town's taxation rate. The taxation rate can be set from 1/3 normal price to 3x normal price in increments of thirds.
• In a town that has a taxation rate other then 0 (normal price), the NPC vendor prices will reflect the increased or decreased prices. Increased or decreased prices affect all players, whether they are in a faction or not.
• In addition to setting the taxation rate of the NPC vendors, the Finance Minister is able to purchase additional NPC vendors for the town. These vendors include Horse Breeders (who sell War Horses), reagent vendors, ore vendors, and lumber vendors. The NPC vendors will appear at the location where the vendor is purchased.
