Ore Trade
Type	Utility Technique
Fields	Earth, PerQuest, Subrosian, Rupee
Cost	30 rupees

Ore Trade is a utility technique, and a exclusive racial perk for Subrosians. As such, a Subrosian can choose to gain it as a perk upon character creation. Since this is an exclusive perk, other races normally cannot acquire it as a treasure.

Subrosians come from a land where ore chunks are used in currency in place of rupees. Naturally, if they value money, their senses are particularly sharpened for finding ore, much moreso than other races. Once per quest or dungeon, a Subrosian can either acquire additional plain rupees, or additional quest rupees for metal-or-stone-based treasures. In either case, this is a PerQuest treasure of the Rupee field. As such, it cannot be used in combination with other Rupee PerQuest treasures.

If a material is chosen, the Subrosian gains an additional 10 rupees to spend on any metallic materials within this quest or dungeon. The treasure must be found within the affected quest. These bonus rupees can be combined with the Subrosian's quest rupees to pay for the material. Any leftover rupees not spent on a material are forever lost.

If rupees are chosen, the Subrosian must role-play finding the rupees, and gains an additional 5 rupees at the end of his quest or dungeon. In doing so, however, he cannot use Nose for Treasure, Lost and Found, or Rupoor Supply to find additional rupees in that same quest or dungeon.
