'''Kudos''' – these are outdated now. They were previously earned instead of sovereigns for being logged in and were then traded for sovereigns. This extra step has now been cut out and you earn sovereigns directly. For anyone who still has some of the old kudos you can double click them in your backpack to convert them directly to sovereigns.
 
'''Sovereigns''' are used in the UOStore for deco and vanity items. They can be withdrawn for trading via the blue gem next to the total. They are earned through being logged in at a rate of 1 per 30 minutes you’re logged on (for a maximum of 48 every 24 hours).
 
'''Putrid''' are Putrid Hearts and can be obtained from Trammel Despise and exchanged for rewards from the vendor at the entrance.
