Protheon

Protheon is a mysterious currency. It represents your insight into ancient knowledge.


 * You can exchange Protheon for a one-time bonus of 500 research (at Munchies' Dirt).
 * You can keep Protheon unspent, which increases your "over the time" research gain by +1 for each 10 Protheon that you have.
 * Protheon increases the efficiency of Insta-Freud (you lose Madness faster).

As a downside, Protheon turns you into a very reasonable and scientific person, so having a lot of it will drastically reduce the Madness gain over time (from being on Atropus worlds, etc.).
