Valuables;
*Cash- Money makes the world go round, this is the most basic resource.
*Strings- While Cash is the most basic resource, a favor has twice the effectiveness- especially when combined with solid currency.

==Substances==
In addition to forming the widest array of traded "goods" in the game, Substances relate to the [[attunement (beyond the veil)|Attunements]] a [[character (beyond the veil)|character]] gains as they [[transubstantiate (beyond the veil)|Transubstantiate]] to higher [[rank (beyond the veil)|Rank]].

*Dark substances: These Substances correspond with various sins and negative experiences.

**Flesh- Greed, Gluttony, Lust, Sloth, Corruption, and Decay and is associated with the [[Domain (beyond the veil)|Domain]] of [[Coins (beyond the veil)|Coins]].
*Material substances; These Substances correspond with the primal and Alchemical elements.
**Earth- This element also covers Wood, Metal, Crypt, the Grave, and is associated with the [[Domain (beyond the veil)|Domain]] of [[Coins (beyond the veil)|Coins]].
**Fire- is associated with the [[Domain (beyond the veil)|Domain]] of [[Wands (beyond the veil)|Wands]].

**Justice reflects Temperance and Fairness in all forms. This rests with the [[Domain (beyond the veil)|Domain]] of [[Swords (beyond the veil)|Swords]].

==Raw Sprit==
*Psyche- In a realm where thought, spirit, and physics are one, this substance also passes as a combination of physical health, willpower, and psychic cohesion. Further, while Psyche can be manipulated just like any other Resource, it is the only resource which is entirely native to the spiritual realm. Unlike other Resources, however, the amount of Psyche a character can possess is limited, and a character’s Max Psyche is determined by adding the character’s Rank and Endurance plus one. A character with no remaining Psyche [[discorporate (beyond the veil)|discorporates]].
*Belief- "As above, so below." The raw belief of mortals translates across the veil to the spiritual world as one of the most universal coins of the realm.
*Souls- While various entities believe strongly in the rights of free will and the involibility of the immortal soul, it is undeniably a worthy resource and stained souls are traded by even the purest entities in their efforts to stymie those who seek to spread darkness.

==Time==
Generally, time isn't traded, though it can be used and wasted. Whether the time is measured in [[conflict resolution (beyond the veil)|conflict rounds]] or downtime, it is always worth keeping track of how your time is spent...
