Influence Currency Symbol

[Murcielago]

I know influence was always touted as "not a currency" by the live devs BUT if influence were a currency, what would it's symbol look like?

[Wild Claw]

Hrmmm...

 

Currency symbols are mostly the a letter from the name of the currency (often an italic version) with one or two lines through it, because money people are often singularly uninventive. Or is the symbol for the previous currency carried forward... for the same reason. 😉 For examples  the dollar ($) and the pound sterling (£) are supposedly derived from the Spanish peso (which was legal currency in the US before they started striking their own coins), and the Roman libra (again the predecessor to the pound).

 

Since Influence/Infamy/Information all start with I, if it was a true currency it's probably an I with two lines through it.  Though it would be funny if Influence was  (as in the designers were trying to say 'not a currency'), and Infamy was  (as in 'ha, we've x'ed out your not-currency!')

The Praetorian version can be used in Loyal Tea and Coffee, so you can use Information to grab a byte.

Ah, you mean Infamy?
