Will Aurum be convertible back to PLEX?
Only in the sense that you can buy stuff for Aurum and sell them on the market for Isk, then buy Plex with the Isk.

The main question here is:
will i be able to take your monocle if i pod you? :)
No, clothing is destroyed when you get podded, but if you had a stack on monocle's in your cargo hold they will drop like normal.

*EDIT 2*
I assume if we buy from players we can "use" the items and then it will be stuck on our account permanently. I would have to lose my ship and have to spend millions buying my trousers again.
You can take your cloths off, and then sell them to other player.

What exactly are those PLEX price equilibrium forcing tools?
E.g. when you say 'set conversion rate' is that ever going to be adjusted or will it always remain constant? And will it be possible to convert from AUR->PLEX and will AUR be on the market like PLEX?
The Aurum can be converted to plex by selling stuff you bought with Aurum for Isk, and using the Isk to buy Plex.
The Aurum are a new currency and will be stored in your wallet like Isk is.

I'm replying to you with my edit, so you don't miss it. Losing clothes on pod destruction seems rather silly from the lore perspective, or are you abandoning the fluidic pod concept entirely?
We are treating it as the cloths you are wearing are stored in your pod so you have cloths to wear when exiting your pod at the next station.

So the Aurum would be the same currency as will be used in DUST514, e.g. not convertible to PLEX.
However you didn't answer the most significant of my questions; will the conversion rate be static and unchanging, or will it be one of the tools used to keep the PLEX market healthy?
Not working on dust, so can't comment on that. As to the exchange rate, that is up to the store managers and I don't have any idea what there plans are. So no comment.

Will Aurum eventually be purchasable with RL$ directly?
Not at this time.
Originally by: Valeo Galaem
Also, will players be able to gift Aurum to each other as we can with ISK?
If so, I can see players setting themselves up as brokers for currency exchange, if you don't want to cash out a whole PLEX or want to sell Aurum for ISK without waiting for market orders to clear.
Yes you can trade Aurum between players, the broker idea... hmm you setting up the business?
