When gold hits the floor, little cave dwelling creatures called Pilfers pop up from the ground and try to steal them. Each piece will be targeted by only one Pilfer; once that Pilfer has been repelled, no other Pilfers will attempt to steal it. Gold can be used to purchase items and gear upgrades. The player may carry a maximum of 999,999 gold at any time. Gold value is affected by Blessings and the Canary's Philospher's Touch ability.
