$ The Gatherers $
All worshippers of the mighty god Galduron, Lord of Wealth and Commerce, have the common attribute of an overwhelming sense of greed and self- indulgence. In line with this trait, Galduron grants his followers the use of an interdimensional portal to the vault of the Temple of Galduron in Sanctuary. The portal takes the form of a flexible hoop, which acts as a focus for the energies required for crossing unimaginable distances. With great concentration, the true followers of Galduron may use their vision to cross the boundaries of the portal to gain knowledge of what is stored in the vault.
Change #6439
Galduron's Vault (also known as the place where things go when Gatherers put them in the hoop) now transforms objects into wealth automatically when they are placed in the vault. Caution should be taken not to place things in the hoop that you want to continue existing as things other than gold coins. The amount of gold produced by this effect is, on average, roughly what you would get from selling the items to an indifferent vendor with moderate parity in one's respective haggling skills (ie a roughly average amount relative to what is possible for an expert haggler/trader).
In order to maintain the favor of Galduron, all followers must maintain a certain level of value either in the bank or on their person, in the form of both coinage and the value of carried objects. Those who fail to maintain the favor of Galduron in this manner will be stricken with illnesses stemming from their greed.
Unlike his brother gods, Vashanka and Doppel, Galduron bears no grudges towards them. He simply wishes to amass the greatest wealth of any being, and he wants his followers to attempt the same.
Should there be any member of the Gatherers that does not provide to the common wealth, five Gatherers may cast a vote to expel him, or Galduron may decide by divine authority that a member should no longer be allowed to use the powers of the hoop.
The magical hoop you carry as a symbol of your devotion to Galduron will respond to the following commands:
$ l<ook> in hoop $ shows you the contents of the hoop not yet transported because of magical interference $ l<ook> through hoop $ shows you the contents of the vault in the Temple of Galduron at Sanctuary $ get/take <item(s)> from hoop $ retrieves something from the vault or hoop $ put <item(s)> in hoop $ puts something inside the hoop to be transferred to the vault
Change #6340
Members of the Gatherers are now capable of providing banking services in the same manner as NPC priests of Galduron. Members can check 'help banking services' and related files for assistance with the syntax.
