Money "notes" from the banking system - places like Skudd bank in Scorn, etc.

So yes, currency or more accurately, "cashier checks"

so it weighs a lot less than carrying around all that plat/diamonds? can you retreive them from banks not in scorn? and how about adding a magic credit card?

Imperials tend to weigh less, but they have to be converted into regular money, before they can be used for regular shops.

As for where you can withdraw them, any npc that is hooked into the bank script. (most banks).

Talk to the tellers that are in most "banks". Some of them are able to convert them.

the script that handles the exchanging is banksay.py, by grepping the maps-bigworld module for that script, a list of maps which will do this can be obtained, with a litte manipulation, we get the list of cities:

grep -r banksay.py * | grep slaying | cut -d ':' -f 1 | cut -d '/' -f 1 | sort | uniq
azumauindo
mlab
navar_city
pup_land
santo_dominion
scorn

/finding/ the banks in these cities is another matter altogether. (and one that I won't help with outside the spoilers forum).
