The Vault is an inventory list and bank account all in one. Items are divided by their main type or function!
Currencies
Eggs
Familiars
Usable Items
Materials
Gathered Items
Currencies are comprised of your Trinkets, the currency traded among dergons, and Tradecoins, the currency their riders carry, which is accepted internationally, even when nations have separate currencies. Group Credit is the out-of-universe currency which is a stand-in for USD, and can be earned in-game and used for items usually reserved for group sales.
Eggs are just that- dergon eggs! These come in multiple rarities, along with special event forms such as Frozen or Painted. Dergon eggs may be hatched, traded, gifted and sold as you'd like! Some dergon eggs may also be used as Alchemy ingredients, for higher rarities or Arcane/Radioactive versions. Inscribed Eggs and other semi-customs are listed here as well.
Familiars are pets you may bond to your dergon. Familiar eggs are stored here, along with Training Kits which you can use to tame a Gathered Item animal! Hatched familiars are stored in the Geno Database as well as listed in your Vault.
Usable Items are a combination of your Crafting and Alchemy results, shop purchases, and openable loot from Activities and other events. These items include tack, single-use geno editing and breeding boosting items.
Materials are the refined forms of raw items, used for Crafting and Alchemy. These may also be found while doing activities, but are slightly rarer. Some Materials may be used as-is, but are mainly ingredients for more advanced versions of the item's base effects!
Gathered Items are the majority of raw materials your dergon will find when doing Activities. They're divided into Animal, Vegetable, and Mineral, to keep the inventory a little bit tidier. These items must generally be refined or processed to be usable for crafting.
Your Materials and raw Gathered Items may be used in Crafting or Alchemy! (These are being updated at the moment.) These skills will make a wider range of items available beyond what's available in the Shops, and more powerful items will be accessible as your Dergon levels up in these skills!
Items may also be freely traded, gifted, and sold among players most of the time! A very few items will be listed as account-bound, meaning you may not transfer the item to another user. These mainly consist of Scenes which have been used, one copy of which is kept in your Vault.
You must have an item in your Vault before using or transferring it! A minor exception is when you've entered something such as a shop purchase and want to list these items for use; including the proof link will let admins know that you have items pending processing. Not everything gets processed at the same time, so this can be helpful!

Items may be applied to an undesigned geno in a number of ways. On submitting a geno for design approval, you may list any items you're using which have defined or chosen results, such as an item which lets you choose a marking to add. For other effects which rely on a random result, you should edit your geno before designing it; these items may be applied to a geno in the Geno Updates channel in our Discord, with the following form:
DeviantArt Username:
Geno Proof Comment: (and number, if a breeding)
