Description
Next >Jasmine was a smart girl, born to a human mother and aasimar father in a noble house. She understood her angelic heritage, but it held no bearing on her life, aside from her glittering golden eyes and charming looks. What did was her brief, tasty and succulent samples of a higher life. The rich, powerful and wealthy received a life of absolute laziness, gluttony and hedonism, but a lower noble like her had these luxuries as fleeting rewards and celebrations.
She loved he amount she had compared to the villagers, but craved for more and more and more with every fleeting taste of how good it could be. She grew up in a house nearly a mansion, but no castle. She had a stocked kitchen, but not infinitely so. And she had skilled chefs in the restaurants in town, but none on payroll in her home, as she would so dream. Jasmine wished to fix this one day.
She loved to go down to the bakery and buy a day's supply of sweetrolls, but her finance was limited and her mother told her "no more than once a month, and only a dozen," so her appetite had capped out where it had reached at the age of twelve or so, when a dozen first became a manageable amount. Since then it was only enough for breakfast and lunch, but she still craved more to fill her painfully engorged gut.
This is why she had her mother hire the Wizarding tutor. Knowing she had no particular gift for magic, being a sorceress was out of the question, so some hard worked study was her investment for a wealthy, lazy life to come. The gift came naturally to her, and this was a better path than a sweaty muscly warrior doing the work herself! She even took a special liking to summoning spells. Why would she bother fetching dinner from the kitchen when a celestial animal could do the same?
But after months of being officially known as a wizard after years of training she decided it was time to push forwards and try to obtain the life she wanted! The life of a successful, gluttonous, adventurer! Not wanting to stray too far from home she set out to the village bounty board and looked at three offers:
-Hunt the Old Mattered Boar who eats crops and tramples land! Reward: the meat off his back, and 20gp
-Protect our wagon on travel to the nearby city of Lemon's Ledge, bandits may be a danger! 5gp per day, food and drink including (rationed), 10 days journey.
-WANTED: Vicky the Slip! A chubby elf with a bow has been ranging king's deer and stealing from trade supplies! Believed to have accomplices! Treat as armed and dangerous. Reward: Whatever treasure found in her hideout and bounty or 50gp dead, 100gp alive
She looked them over, thinking. The boar gave meat, though she'd need hired help to skin or cook it. Her love of sweets taught her a thing or two about baking, but she couldn't fry game. The wagon brought her to the city with cash. She could get either better tasting, cheaper or more fattening food there. Though it was more dangerous. And then the most dangerous with the most reward. A lot of gold, probably food supplies, and even treasure! But this one looked tough.
Jasmie could also try to hire others to help her, but with her power starting out as it was she'd need to share loot 50/50 for that to work, unless she could offer them something. She could also try to hit the roads without a job, if she wanted to make her own path, but that poses it's own risks, since as is she was only starting with 50gp, and if she wanted to keep eating well that wasn't going to last more than a few weeks. If she wanted to actually gain, even less.
"Decisions, decisions..." She said out loud.
"What should I do...?"

Meh, Wagon sounds like it's the safest choice with the best profit. If she goes after Vicky she'd need to get a team of her own to back her up.

The wagon. She'll be protecting nead and beer drumbs, valuable furs and jewls, and she'd be given a dagger and throwing knives to protect herself.
I.e. We're supposed to give ideas and senarios correct?

Protecting the wagon looks very attractive. I'd consider Vicki a boss fight, and that's not something one goes to in the beginning of an adventure.
