(Before anyone gets upset, the title is a League of Legends joke.)

Do gems do something special that I've missed out on somehow? (If it's something I have to discover by quests/guild then just say so.)

I don't get why they're separate from coinage. Just for variety?

Certain magic guilds use them in spells. Also you can sell them for coins.

Err ... well, they aren't coins. How would they *not* be separate from coinage?

G.

Well, they're treated like a different kind of currency by the banks, and I know the gem shops will give good coin for them, but then they're kept by default, so it seemed like something was up.

Ody 'splaint it though.

Gems are pretty to look at. Much more sparkly than coins.

Many people collect various gems.. for various reasons.
I believe there is someone hoarding Rubies ... *cough*Stern*cough*
Also .. you can have jewelry made with them..
or I believe have certain items encrusted with them if you collect enough.
And they have worth in other ways... as a means of gifting, bribing, distracting, etc..

Certain weapons use gems as well, to power them.
