Real gem

Real gems are hidden in plain sight, but that is not always so obvious in a text-based game. When one is found, there is a monsterbold game-wide message that SOMEONE JUST FOUND A REAL GEM! The actual real gem will arrive at the finder's home about 2 months later along with a congratulatory certificate.

GEM (verb)

The GEM verb provides information about real gems.

Hidden in the lands in and around all of the cities are items which you can find and turn in for "REAL" items with the same name.  Participation is easy.  All you have to do is keep a sharp eye out searching everywhere you can.  Real items *will* be found.  Maybe the next one by you.

LOOK ON, UNDER AND BEHIND EVERYTHING.  There are great hiding spots everywhere!

We have also hidden some other REAL items within the game.  One such example would be special mugs that will earn you a REAL DragonRealms/GemStone mug.

You may only find a maximum of one item every six months per account.  When you find a "real" item, you will be given instructions on how to exchange it.  Follow these instructions precisely.  If you have any questions after you find an item, please do an ASSIST and a Gamemaster will help you with the proper information.
