This entity exudes a palpable chill that frosts nearby chain links and dulls the warmth of lantern light. It moves with a whisper of rustling parchment and the faint, metallic clink of phantom coins. Its touch leaves a temporary, tarnished-copper stain on objects, and its gaze seems to calculate the material worth of everything it passes. The air around it grows still and silent, as if the very joy of the game is being quantified and found wanting, repelling the warmth of community laughter with an aura of cold assessment.

A merciless auditor of the fairways, the Profit Phantom patrols the borders between community and commerce, its ghostly quill noting every instance where a gate is locked or a hand is not extended in fellowship. It is the embodiment of value misplaced, judging each action not by the laughter it creates but by the coin it could theoretically generate, a relentless reminder that some accounts are tallied in a currency colder than gold.
