Mist Tokens, shorthand MT, are denominations of the account-bound metacurrency in ''The Domains of Dread'' awarded on character closure, including the [[Death, Dying and Maiming\|closure]] of [[Dread Figures]]. Mist Tokens do not expire and are not capped. They are awarded in increments of <code>5</code>, where <code>5</code> is the lowest cost for an option and <code>100</code> the highest.

	~~As above, Mist Tokens are bound to the account - that~~ is ~~to say,~~ the ~~CD key -~~ of the ~~player. There is no method to earn~~ MT ~~other~~ than ~~through~~ character ~~closure~~. ~~The intent behind~~ such ~~a restriction is to encourage~~ the ~~permanent conclusion~~ of ~~character storylines and to provide perks for future characters~~.		The value amount awarded per closure is determined by the Game Masters using a variety of factors plus some randomness. Generally, characters who have reached the <code>14th level</code> and achieved milestones such as becoming a notable figure within a supported [[Factions\|faction]] shall be awarded more MT upon their closure than a character who did not achieve the same milestones. It should be noted that characters who expire “ahead of schedule” for reasons pertaining to story such as from Game Master chaperoned events will still be awarded an extra sum of MT upon their closure, so holding onto characters for the sole purpose of “farming” MT is never necessary.
