I wondering on the costs of creating a teleportation circle. The spell material component is worth 50 GP right? And, to create a permanent circle you need to cast the spell over a year. No biggie right? however the material component is consumed when you do this. Wouldn't This be Obscenely Expensive?
Yes. You're going to need 18,250 gp by the time the year is over. 18,300 if it's a leap year, I guess.
In practice you probably don't need to do this. If your home base is in a large city there's probably already a teleport circle there you can leverage. If you have a cleric buddy they can usually give you a ride back to town with Word of Recall as well. And once you can cast Teleport, having an object taken from the destination is just as good as a permanent teleport circle.
Permanent teleportation circles would normally be something a large organization or local government pays to install.
An individual with a private circle would naturally be very rich. I'm not sure how many examples there are. I bet Mordenkainan and Tasha have their own circles. Volothamp probably doesn't.
