The Avenues

Five ways to trade

From the open auction to the shadow bazaar, every avenue of commerce in Imperium, each with its own rhythm, risk, and reward.

Auctio

Auction House

Bid on the rarest loot in the realm

The grand auction where legendary gear, rare cosmetics, and one-of-a-kind drops change hands. Outbid your rivals in Denarius, or set a buyout and walk away the victor.

  • List items with a starting bid and an optional instant-buyout price
  • Outbidding extends the timer, no last-second sniping steals your prize
  • A 5% auction fee flows into the treasury to fund legion payouts
Mercatus

Player Marketplace

List, browse, and buy between citizens

The living trade exchange at the heart of Rome. Set your own stall, name your price in Denarius, and let supply and demand decide what your goods are worth.

  • List items for instant sale; buyers purchase at your set price
  • A live price history tracks the rise and fall of every commodity
  • Search by category, rarity, or enchant to find exactly what you need
Taberna

The Shop

The NPC vendor of last resort

When no citizen will take your wares, the imperial vendor will, at a price. A baseline floor and ceiling for common goods, selling reagents, repair bills, and staple stock.

  • Sells reagents, repair materials, and common consumables for Denarius
  • Buys unwanted loot at a fixed floor, your safety net against a flooded market
  • Vendor prices set the baseline against which player prices are measured
Commercium

Secure Trade

Player-to-player, face to face

A handshake deal, made safe. Meet a citizen in the trade plaza, lay out your offers in a secure window, and confirm only when both sides are satisfied. No scams, no grief.

  • Both players must confirm the final offer before any item moves
  • Any change to either side resets confirmation, nothing slips through
  • Trade tax applies to high-value exchanges, paid to the treasury
Contraband

The Contraband Market

High reward. Higher risk.

The shadow bazaar where forbidden goods change hands for staggering sums. The payouts are unmatched, but every deal carries a chance the Praetorian Guard seizes your haul.

  • Contraband items sell for far more than their lawful market value
  • Each deal carries a seizure risk, lose the goods and pay a fine
  • Repeated smuggling raises your heat, increasing the odds of a bust
