Kami Coins

The Kami Coins were a set of 5 orichalcum coins created by the Kami Kantaro and gifted to the heads of each Clan.

These coins have a worth far greater than monetary value; they hold symbolical and cultural significance.

During the Calibration Festivities, the Clans are invited to bid on Applicants for Adoption into their Clan. But wealth is distributed inequally among the Clans, and the wealthier Clans naturaly have a chance to adopt the best and most promising candidates.

The Kami Coins come in to even these odds: a Clan can "spend" a Kami Coin in its possession to automatically outbid any and all other Clans, thus winning the auction and adopting the Applicant. When a Kami Coin is used, it becomes available to be won or earned by every Clan. Years can go by without any Kami Coin changing hands, as some are harder than others to win back, and possession of the Coin can be worth just as much, if not more, than actually using it.
