Chips

Chips are the primary form of currency in the bustling city of Oasis, serving as a universal means of exchange in the various casinos, brothels, and other establishments that dominate the town. These small, flat, circular tokens come in a wide variety of colours and denominations, with each colour representing a different value. They are typically made from durable bones that are dyed, ensuring that they can withstand the rough handling and frequent use that is typical in the city's rowdy establishments. Chips are prized possessions in Oasis, coveted by all who seek to make their fortune in this unforgiving land. They can be won or lost at a dizzying pace, changing hands with every roll of the dice or turn of the card. For those who are skilled or lucky enough to amass a large number of chips, the sky is the limit - they can buy their way into the city's most exclusive clubs, hire the best mercenaries, or even purchase their freedom from the criminal underworld that threatens to engulf them.
Despite their many advantages, chips are not without their drawbacks. They are easily counterfeited, and unscrupulous individuals are constantly on the lookout for ways to cheat or swindle those who hold large quantities of them. Additionally, the constant fluctuations in value and the fickleness of Lady Luck herself can make even the most successful chip holder a victim of circumstance in the blink of an eye.
Despite these challenges, the citizens of Oasis continue to rely on chips as their primary means of exchange, valuing them not only for their practical utility but also for the excitement and allure that comes with the city's high-stakes gambling culture.
