a miniature granite statue of Khalas, the Wanderer - 25cr
While any copy of this wonderous artefact remains in the inventory of a player, it will ensure that Khalas is never released from his stony prison.
RL casino (or lottery, or most any other gambling): The goal is profit. You want the total amount of winnings you give out to be less than the total amount your customers spend. So, when a customer pays $x to gamble, they have a chance of getting a lot more than $x, but on average they'll win less than $x, because that's the primary way you'll achieve your goal.
Achaea: The goal is for the "gambling" to either be more appealing than credit purchases or to make credit purchases more appealing than usual, to encourage people to spend money. The two main ways you can do that are increasing the value or offering exclusive (not normally purchasable with credits) prizes, and most likely you'd do both. Unlike gambling money to win money in RL, there's no advantage in having the average winnings be less valuable than the amount spent. If customers consistently (or what looks consistent enough from a potential customer's perspective) get less value than they would have if they purchased credits instead, the promotion probably isn't working very well for achieving its goal.
(I'd actually love a miniature of him >>)
P.S: I think Sena put it beautifully concerning game gambling and IRL gambling.
Your artwork is not nearly as refined to capture His true essence. hmph
It is a purchase from the game to gain something, it's a gain for sure. And that gain is set to be unexpected, for the thrill. It's a modification from direct credit purchase, to offer more fun.

>To get a piece to gamble on a globe.
The only thing I see worthwhile in that 1000cr is literally the brocade, which is worth about 300-400cr.
The box now shows 2 platinum whistles and 1 forsaken Ithin'urai!
does that mean you got 2 talisman pieces that could contribute to a platinum whistle?
Penwize has cowardly forfeited the challenge to mortal combat issued by Atalkez.
If you get 2, you get a consolation prize of 1/4th of a box to do it ALL OVER again.
If you get none, you get 5-10 herbs for 25cr.
Edited: Duh, will try trading on market for unbound cr. Silly Aerei.
