You'll get it as rewards or from selling monster parts or whatever, money will be coming to you as you advance through the game.
You can use it for all kinds of things, as money tends to be, but the important ones are Items and Equipment.
Using an item is a Support Action, and a character can only use an item once per scene!
Restorative items can be used freely out of battle, but during battle, they're more limited, and their effects are reduced.
Some items are instead used offensively - for those, you pick a target in range and roll any attribute you feel like!
This part is a little wacky, because I didn't want gear to just be small passive bonuses, it didn't feel very Valorish for them to be subtle.
A character has two Gear slots, and can equip any two items as long as they aren't, for instance, both body armor.
This will of course work a little differently for people who have plot-locked weapons, like something attached to their body or the holy sword Excalibur.
Any item that's relevant to your character and can't be left behind will permanently occupy one slot, but it may become more powerful as the game progresses.
If you have a piece of gear equipped in a slot, you can activate it once! Then, it's down for the rest of the scene.
Most of the time, you must pop the Gear Ability before rolling the attack, but some powerful weapons may not be bound by that rule.
Flame Brand
3850 gil
Ability: Increase the damage of the attack by 20 and deal fire elemental damage.

Armor works similarly - you activate it before rolling defense, and it will reduce the damage on a hit, or push the attacker away, or whatever. There are lots of possibilities!
IN SHORT, advance through the game and find increasingly sicker loot to loot or buy, and use it to win.
Generally speaking, you can pass an item to someone in your ZOC as a Support Action, or use it on yourself as a Support Action.

This is going slightly old-school! Expect a larger than average number of fights, many of them smaller or easier.
Dungeon Crawls will be extended stays in dangerous territory, where you explore, solve puzzles, fight monsters, do plot events, et cetera.
Dungeons are divided into Rooms - players will have a chance to scout out rooms to see what's in them before they enter. Challenges, monsters, treasure, window dressing, plot, boss fights, or a Sanctuary.
So in this game we might be able to build a few more healing technique than we normally would without making battles stupid
You may encounter strong enemies who have extremely powerful attacks, far earlier than anticipated.
However, they will usually have some kind of trick you can use to avoid or prepare for them.
So, attack the scorpion while its tail is up, it's gonna counterattack with its laser, etc.
Oh, even if you don't have a weapon Equipped, you can generally assume you've got a sword or whatever in hand, it just isn't a cool one with special properties
I'm picturing a plotting clique plurk up right now that's just "Hey guys suggest item abilities to me"
I'm not locking in on any character concepts until Kasu weighs in on the announcement plurk, though
Ruka: "I'm making an Acid themed attack"
Prof: /starts including enemies with acid weaknesses and shit

I don't think I"m going to be PARTICULARLY elemental themed but I might have a bit of, like
Belated update - I'm scrapping Equipment due to characters having a lot of unique plot weapons, but I'm keeping the mechanics and refluffing them as Materia Slots
You can buy Materia and slot up to two into your weapon and then activate each one once per scene for a Materia effect
