Currency

Currency

Currency in Spera works in conjunction with the economy. There are four types of exchange value factors: which are coinage, jewels, items, and services. The coinage system is the most widespread, and falls under the rule of currency the most.

The coinage system of the Spera RPG follows a sort of exchange rate. Each coin has a certain amount of money that it is worth. With this, it translates into the currency tree called Money; which you use to purchase things. Due to how hard it is to find or gain these coins, depreciation is absolutely impossible.



Exchanging Coins

When you find/gain coins, they are immediately inputted into your character's bank account, should they have one. If they do not, you are unable to gain any Money. When you ask for any coinage that is found to be put into your account, you will be capable of accessing said account and extracting the Money.

You are never able to do so before inputting it into the bank. It takes two hours for the coins to process, after the new amount is available for conversion. Therefore, it will never go straight into your pocket. The previous balance of Money in your account is not malleable until the two hours are up. As such, it would be good to find something to do for two hours.

Finding Coins

You are only capable of finding a coin if you have Spoils enabled in an RP you are doing. You have 30 tries to attempt to find a coin. Each of these times has a chance of finding a coin. This means that you can find a maximum of 30 coins within one RP.

A 100-sided die is rolled. If the output is 40-31, a Copper coin is found. If the output is 30-21, a Bronze coin is found. If it is 20-11, a Silver coin is found. If it is 10-2, a Gold coin is found. Finally, if the roll output is 1, you have found a Platinum coin. You cannot find a coin unless you have a bank account to correspond with it.

Once you find a coin, you must post the link to the post in which you found said coin. This will be inputted into the system as accepted. You must, however, wait until the RP is finished before posting your link. If any links are posted beforehand, those coins will not be put into the bank.

Appreciating

The appreciation values of coinage works much like a backed up water hose. The original value of the coinage is frozen, and they are essentially worthless and unable to leave the bank. After four days, the value of the coins are increased by 30%. These coins are then given back to the user at the value of appreciation, essentially gaining them more money.

Raw Material refers to the material found in the earth, that is either created by heat or moisture. These raw materials are rare, but nearly three times as valuable as the coinage of Spera. Finding great material requires that one have Mining experience; as such, you must have the Mining abilities to find the most valuable things easily.


Chances
[list]Finding material is, like coinage, a rare thing. There are two things that must be done if the user wishes to mine.

• They must have at least one of the Mining Abilities. The level of ability corresponds with how hard it is to find one of the Raw Materials.
  
• The user must use a tool for mining; such as a Pickaxe, Shovel, Mining Machinery or Automatons built for mining.

Upon those requirements being present, the user is capable of beginning to mine. The NPC of the RP they are in will roll three 100-sided die. Two of those three must equal or be lower the definitive value of the Raw Material, or it has not been found.

In the case of two overlapping elements, such as getting a Gold value with two Silvers; the one with the most is the winner. If all three are different overlapping elements, such as getting in the Gold and Silver range with Copper; the NPC is able to choose the outcome of the roll and determine which of the materials have been found.


Material Input

Inputting material is essentially the same as exchanging coins in the bank. However, material takes up to a week before it becomes lucrative for use. Once it does, however, the user is capable of taking it out of the bank and using it.

Appreciation

The appreciation values of appreciation works much like the coinage. The original value of the material is frozen, and they are essentially worthless and unable to leave the bank. After four days, the value of the coins are increased by 10%. These materials are then given back to the user at the value of appreciation, essentially gaining them more money.
