- Gem trading/item trading. An item/gem exchange might be pushing it, 'tho. ("Fire gems up 0.05 to 1.85 Astral, Caulrons of Broth down to 30 Astral, et al"). Heh.

Both of these are good. I especially like the global stock exchange... "Blood slaves! Get your young & saucy blood slaves! Free manacles with every order!"
Hahaha... seriously, I like automated trading systems. The one in Earth 2025 (partner game to Utopia) had such a system, where you could put tanks, planes, technology levels, or whatever on the international market - at any price you chose. Any buyer could place an order for tanks (specifying a certain maximum that he would pay) and then he would automatically buy the lowest-priced tanks currently on the market. Supply and demand worked really well there...
