Coins and Currency

Coins and Currency

Coin is the basic unit of currency in the Kingdoms of Novitas. One copper piece is commonly referred to as one coin. A silver piece is worth ten coin. There are also "exotic" coins also known in-game as "slave tokens". These larger pieces of metal have symbols pressed into them and are notably heavier than a standard coin. Each is worth one hundred coin. There are no gold coins, and referring to how much gold something is worth is never appropriate.

Other alternate valuables exist such as the sea shells used by piscenes, or gems. The estimate value skill allows players to identify the coin value of any unusual item their character comes across, collectively referred to as "valuable items" in this wiki. There is no regulation of trading between two characters, a character can offer whatever price they deem appropriate for a trade and a seller can accept that offer or not as they wish.

Characters are not allowed to create counterfeit coins. Suspension of disbelief is an important part of larping and there would be no reasonable way for players to figure out what is fake and what is real.

Estimate Value

Characters with the estimate value skill are proficient in the appraisal of valuable (generally) non-magical objects such as gems and jewelry.

Each magic item or valuable object in the Kingdoms of Novitas is indelibly marked with one of these letters (followed by a number):

• "E": A Former Feb Feast Item - This item has lost its Feb Feast properties and is now keepable/ lootable (its easiest to turn an F into an E)
• "F": A Feb Feast item - Return it to its owner by the end of the event.
• "H": A hybrid item - a magic item that is also valuable
• "K": A keepable/ lootable item - This item can be looted. (The letter L is not used so it isn't mistaken for a 1)
• "N": A non-keepable/ lootable item - This item cannot be looted. Plagues are also listed with this letter.
• "Q": A quest item - Something that needs to be returned to logistics by the end of the event. It cannot be kept long term.
• "V": A Valuable item - This item needs estimate value to identify.
• None: Older items have no letter, some of these items are not on the magic item list, and are listed on the estimate value list.

A character with the estimate value skill is allowed to use this page to see a list of all valuable items. Players can also use this page to search up the value of a single item.
