Accounts:
In the realm of Dawn, the innovative banking system stands as a bastion of trust, offering a secure and convenient haven for individuals to safeguard their wealth. The initiation of an account is a meticulous process, involving the signing of a binding contract. During this ritual, individuals select a unique key from an array of options curated by the bank, or they can bring their own for an added layer of personalization. The next step involves crafting a passphrase or word, a secret that, when uttered, serves as the gateway to one's financial sanctum.

Interaction:
Account interaction within the bank is a carefully orchestrated affair conducted under the watchful gaze of discerning bank tellers. When an account holder seeks to initiate a transaction, the process begins with their identification. This simple act prompts the bank tellers to swiftly procure the account's ledger, shifting the interaction to a secluded, secure room, shielded from curious ears.
Before the actual movement of funds commences, a pivotal step comes to the forefront. The account holder must present their designated key and articulate the passphrase with eloquence and precision. This crucial juncture serves as the gateway to the ensuing procedure, a process that unfolds with nuances contingent upon the specific tier of the account in question.   Vaults:
For more modest accounts, the physical funds are meticulously placed within the bank's vault, and the account holder is provided with a detailed ledger as their primary reference. In contrast, holders of higher-tier accounts witness their wealth being deposited directly into a personal vault, an exclusive sanctum tied to the specific bank branch. Premier vaults are little more than a shallow drawer, Commerce vaults are deep drawer/cabinet/locker space. Guildhold and Enterprise vaults are chests in 2 sizes, secured with magic. Above this we're talking walk-in vaults in growing sizes. The Honoured and Royal are capable of holding live creatures.   Location bound:
The personal vault, while an epitome of security, carries an inherent caveat—its immobility. Relocating a vault becomes a colossal undertaking, a testament to the enduring connection between the account and its originating bank branch.   Account Access:
In the spirit of collaboration, account holders can extend access privileges to trusted entities. This feature proves invaluable for larger enterprises, enabling designated individuals to deposit or withdraw funds on behalf of organizations such as craftsmen, guilds, or noble estates. The extent of security accompanying an account mirrors its tier. Lesser accounts are guarded by humanoid sentinels willing to make the ultimate sacrifice, though the account holder may incur fees for injuries sustained. Higher-tier accounts, however, boast a formidable array of protection, featuring warforged sentinels, elemental guardians, and other powerful entities, all poised to defend the vault and its precious contents. Thus, in the realm of Dawn, the banking system not only preserves wealth but also manifests as an intricate web of security, trust, and collaborative prosperity.
