    ...because that's what happened, according to the poster? VoP was given to everyone, for free, making them equalized.

    To make up for this, because dnd assumes a particular wealth curve.
    I gave everyone the benefits of Vow of Poverty, but without the restrictions.
    They could have all the items that wanted,

    I don't think anyone would want those pancakes even if you paid them to eat them.
