When you mark your character's final trauma and they retire, the amount of coin they've managed to stash away determines their fate. Your stash tracker is on your character sheet.

• Stash 0-10: Poor soul. You end up in the gutter, awash in vice and misery.
• Stash 11-20: Meager. A tiny hovel that you can call your own.
• Stash 21-39: Modest. A simple home or apartment, with some small comforts. You might operate a tavern or small business.
• Stash 40: Fine. A well-appointed home or apartment, claiming a few luxuries. You might operate a medium business.

In addition, each full row of stash (10 coins) indicates the quality level of the character's lifestyle, from zero (street life) to four (luxury).

Cross wants some alone-time with a prospective new friend, but he can't take them back to the hidden lair where he lives, so what to do? Ryan, Cross's player, says he wants to rent a nice room for the evening, so the GM asks for a fortune roll using Cross's lifestyle rating to see what quality of room Cross can manage.
