Currency in the Vulpine Imperium
The dominant currency in the Imperium is the gilder, minted in denominations from common single gilder coins (made from cheap material such as copper, and sometimes divided into quarters or halves) to rarer graduations of five, ten, fifty, or one hundred gilders, which are typically more complex mints or made from more expensive metals. Paper notes or certificates issued by the Epicurean Bank are sometimes exchanged in certain high-value, high-trust commercial contexts, such as between businesses, but would not be used commonly.
Some common prices for everyday goods in the Imperium.
One gilder might get you...
• Three non-fish fishsticks from a street vendor.
• A loaf of bread from a shop in the Trenches.
• One pint of a particularly cheap beer at the Bilge and the Bucket.
Five gilders might get you…
• A quick meal from a hole-in-the-wall eatery.
• One pint of beer at a tavern.
• A cheap, simple knife.
Ten gilders might get you…
• A room to sleep for a day, somewhere cheap.
• A small bottle of wine.
• A decent meal at a tavern or small restaurant.
These are not hard-set prices, but merely a guide for players to determine the value of their goods and coins. Prices likely fluctuate from location to location and based on the perceived quality of the good. If you have any questions about the potential pricing of something, you may ask on the Discord in the staff channel or DM a staff member on the forum.
