Silver

The colloquial name for HEMES no larger than a couple centimeters across. Silver can be acquired one of two ways: by joining Raids & Raiding Parties or by completing Contracts for supercorporations (see below).

Amber

Rewarded only though OOG service to the game. Amber is incredibly rare, valued for its magitek properties. This section will be updated as players make discoveries.

✒️ Contracts

NPC Factions will offer Contracts for service and/or goods in exchange for silver. Contracts have a fixed window for Negotiation in which characters can discuss terms, usually about an hour at the start of an Event. Completing a Contract for an NPC Faction will result in you and your Player Faction, if you have one, gaining favor with them.

Beware however, many supercorporations have corporate rivals and there may be consequences for playing both sides.

When negotiating a contract, Vikings with the Negotiation skill may adopt one of three strategies: Win Win Win, Hard Sell, or Appeal to Emotion. Using the correct bargaining strategy can win greater rewards from the contract than might otherwise be possible.

Rumors and Intel

Rumors and Intel may fetch a high price from the right buyer. See Social Intrigue for details.
