From Arcanet
Gloam is a usable liquid form of the arcane energy which permeates the world of Nodd itself - it is pure potential, chaotic in nature. Gloam has many applications, it's primary uses are as a power source, a fuel for magic, and Nodd's currency. Dangerous to handle openly, gloam is almost always kept in some manner of container. Spent gloam used to fuel something, whether an artifact or a spell, dissipates into the air as a haze. The Conduit gathers this haze to recycle it. A citizen may generate gloam through chaotic and indulgent acts.
