Goblin Point Donations
The Rules Governing Goblin Points
NERO is a Volunteer Organization. We make things
work using the energy and resources of our members.
We accept donations from our members so that we can run the best
game, with the best props, that we can, at a low, yet reasonable
cost.
We encourage all NERO Members to participate in some capacity at all
of the NERO LARP Chapters they patronize, and we reward those
members who do for it with Goblin Points.
Goblin Points can be used for many things, including:
- the purchase of Weekly Goblin Blankets of Experience for your character
- the purchase of up to 100 levels of production equipment per month (1 goblin point per level; any production spent here cannot be spent on silver below)
- the purchase of Silver, up to 100, per month, provided the chapter permits it (NERO Indiana does not permit this)
- the purchase back of deaths (at 100 goblin points per death)
This page contains the awards associated with the different donations.
This is a list of Items that Members may donate, and the maximum
amount of Goblin Points Members may receive for their Donations.
This list will be updated in between events, as we account for received donations and future needs.
Some items are "Hot" or "Cold."
Donated hot items automatically receive the amount listed for "High Demand / Quality" and Cold Items automatically receive the amount listed
for low demand.
A hot item will be listed with a fire graphic to the right: 
A cold item will be listed with an ice graphic to the right:
