Coins, Magic and Work

Instead of using NWN's standard GP system, TER gives each character a number of coin items and a coin pouch to keep them in. While it makes no difference for the classic store interface, exchanges between PCs, dialogue-driven purchases and in-game texts frequently refer to these coins.
There are four of them:
- The copper piece, as the smallest unit, is equivalent to 1 gp in traditional NWN money.
- The silver piece is equivalent to 50 gp
- The gold piece is equivalent to 1000 gp
- The platinum piece is equivalent to 10.000 gp
In other words, 1 pp = 10 gp, 1 gp = 20 sp and 1 sp = 50 cp.
Locally, the copper piece is known as a Sardil or King's Thumb, and carries the face of king Imphras II.
The silver piece is known as a Halanth or Shining Lady, and carries the face of queen Ilmara I.
The gold piece is known as a Balan or Lost Lucky, and carries the face of king Imbrar I.
The platinum piece is known as a Torntar or Founder, and carries the face of king Imphras I.
When interacting with NPCs, only the coins in your coin pouch will be considered as something you're ready to spend. Keeping coin elsewhere in your inventory might mean that certain dialogue options don't show up because you are treated as being too poor to buy a service, even if you're not.
