So, as you might already know, you have some galleons in your pocked. Galleons are needed to buy stuff for school, as well shop for fun.
Where can I get them?
When you post in the 'Characters' board, you receive your first 50 galleons. You can also earn them by posting in the role-play.
Can they be gifted?
Yes, sure, just talk to Mikotora or Ruby about it.
