Currency

Please Note: This page is under development, and information may change as it is built.

Within the land of BGL there are two forms of currency, Electrum, which is the in-game recognized form of payment when buying goods from NPC or Merchant Permitted Ranks; and Character Points, which is the form of currency used when buying perks for ones character outside of the game.

Electrum
The cats of Egypt used a single recognized currency throughout the land, regardless if they are from the Empire or residing outside of it, known as Electrum; which are made from a unique ore that holds a slight blue tint to it. These coins are made into a square shape, with various designed embossed on them; the primary one being of an interpretation of Bastet on the front, and the mark of Ouroboros on the back. The weight and general design of each coin is standardized and it is near-impossible for them to be mistaken for a counterfeit, as weighing on scales and a keen eye can easily tell the two apart.

Thought bartering goods is also occasionally used, it is a lot less common than the coinage in present times, and very few shops will accept it as a form of currency unless it is for exceptionally expensive purchases.

Electrum is a user-based currency meant for purchasing in-game items for characters within the member marketplace. They are the more easier form of currency to acquire, but have to be tracked separately from character to character, meaning if you earn a certain amount for one of your felines, it can only be used by that character, and cannot be distributed between all of them like CP can.

Electrum, like all currencies cannot be given away or transferred to other members.

Distribution
Characters are gifted a specific amount of Electrum at the start of each month depending on their class. The higher the class, the higher the form of currency at the start of the month.
