Io

Level 1

Found embedded within most numenera objects and structures, io is a sort of catchall term for a variety of basic kinds of iotum. As such, it comes in many forms, but each can easily be held in the palm of the hand— smooth shards of muddy crystal in which a glimmer of gold light gleams, tiny green metallic boxes with etched lines that form strange patterns, cylindrical tubes of a soft but resilient material that sparks with static electricity, and so on. At a basic level, io provides or stabilizes energy to power crafted objects. It is also used as a currency in its own right for valuing other kinds of iotum.
