No idea. Haven't worked that out yet.

BARTERING AND TRADE
  Currency in Tersnia is made of a kind of polished obsidian coin representing dollar bills, a certain kind of red jewel as one hundred dollars, and a wood coin as twenty five sense. This currency is used in every civilized settlement in Tersnia. Some shopkeepers and merchants, however, have trading in their markets, allowing customers to trade items of similiar value.

  The red jewels that are used as currency are found in volcanic areas, such as lava feilds and near geysers. Caravans of wealthy merchants and their guards are often sent out to harvest these jewels. One of the greatest hotspots for these red jewels is the Volcanic Waste, but that is one of the most dangerous areas in Tersnia, so many guards must be hired to go to this inhosbitable place.

   Long ago, the four common races had many, many tribal battles for coins and currency. But now most such battles are very spread out and even then they are not the wild plundering battles they used to be. The only race that does this anymore are the Yukums, and even then they do it with the pride and honor common in their race. They never take slaves or kill the innocent people, and even try to avoid killing anyone when they can. It is simply because as the races grow more intelligent and civilized, they can grow food and hunt for themselves, and invent lots of new ways to make living easier for their race without harming others.

PREHISTORIC CREATURES
 Some very primitive and terrifying creatures lurk in the jungles of Tersnia. Giant centipedes and spiders wait silently under rotting logs and such, and intelligent man sized dinosaurs stalk inbetween the trees in packs, seeking to ambush and kill groups of other animals. And mighty carnivores hunt in the sparser jungles, eating everything smaller then them.

     Note: Use whatever dinosaurs you need when running this setting, but keep in mind what would change about them if they lived in the jungle for millions of years. I love raptors, and the Deiynoichos is the perfect stats for it. Giant bugs also make for a terrifying feel when journeying through the deepest, most mysterious parts of Tersnia.
