Ministry of Riches

The Ministry of Riches of the Kaspari Empire, headquartered in Ejor, is responsible for detailing and applying a minor tax to all treasure extracted from the ruins of the northeast. The ministry is run (and fairly responsibly run at that) by one of Sultana Bina Amaus's companions, Jelvan Gusli, who holds the title "Minister of Riches". Conscientious and dependable, Gusli realizes that most of the treasure hauled from the mountains and jungles alone disappears overland, or is smuggled out of the area, with no reports made whatsoever. She focuses her attention on ancient thaumaturgical artifacts, striving to control (or at least regulate) their flow. In particular, she watches for useful or dangerous devices. Her bureau imposes only a 1 percent tax on monetary treasure, and the ministry pays a fair price for most of the rare treasures that are brought to it. Further, individuals who work with the system - and with Gusli - often receive grants to explore newly discovered ruins (or to investigate other, nonpaying tomb-raiders).
