@HTHR or even just tradebane or burning coins curse, just you can't access any merchants unless you're a thief, and then maybe it also makes that harder somehow

Fool's Touch
All gold you gain becomes Fool's Gold. Attempting to trade with a merchant using Fool's Gold will only succeed if you have high stats in trading and manage to convince the merchant that it is real gold. If you fail, you will be treated as if you had tried and failed to pickpocket the merchant.

@boots @HTHR hmmmmmrg... but you need gold for other things than trading

@Efi @HTHR@cybre.space yeah that's why you still get "gold"
in crafting-related things it'll just be treated like gold

@boots @HTHR but "fool's gold" is pyrite, which is a completely different mineral!

@Efi @HTHR@cybre.space
Burning Pouch
Your gold is permanently molten.
You cannot use it for anything other than crafting, and any attempts to use it to trade will start combat.

@boots @HTHR not convincing, molten gold is equally valuable

@Efi @HTHR@cybre.space well yes but you don't have anything to store it in and i doubt merchants will be very happy if you just try to pour molten gold into their hand when they ask for gold
