Maybe a cleric? Who is the god of bean-counters in Eberron, Kol Korran?

Yep.  Sovereign Host are the majority religion in Karrnath, too.

Do you have access to the 4E character creator?

One could also roll up the Goblin King.  Sorcerer or Warlock would do as a class I think.  Or hybrid one of those with bard.

I'm not a very good controller.

So hey.  IMO the costs of artifice, potions and (to a lesser extent) rituals are prohibitively high.  I'm open to ideas on how to homebrew that without unbalancing things, if you mathemagicians have any suggestions.

How about skill checks to scavange parts and ingredients? Make each ritual, potion, or thing a challenge. That substitutes time, circumstance and luck for cash and allows us poor soldiers to do stuff without carrying around mountains of arcane flux.

Part of the problem too, IMO, is that sometimes it barely makes sense in-character for my PCs to be buying items, much less using gold for rituals/potions/etc.; Lula grew up pretty damn poor, and the idea of spending the equivalent of the price for a luxury car on a pair of boots horrifies her.  My current character for this game is also poor, and her inclination would be to save up any coin she gets along the way for the future, not spend it on anything.  So having components and ingredients and such that we find along the way strikes me as a good solution in general in a lot of cases, even apart from using it as a cost-saving measure.

(Is anyone even going to have rituals and brew potion, incidentally?  I'm martial/primal, so nope on my part.)

Can I borrow an Insider login? I cancelled mine ages ago due to lack of use.
