Proposal: A Quest!

Times out 2-6. Failed by Brendan.

Adminned at 04 Dec 2021 04:17:27 UTC

Add a new rule to the ruleset titled “Questing” as follows:

As a daily action, a Soul may carry out the atomic action “Questing”, as follows:
Select a dynasty from among the dynasties they have access to, and post a comment in the dice roller stating that dynasty.
Roll DICEX, where X is that Dynasty’s Stratum. Y is equal to the result. If X is equal to 1, do not roll a die, and set Y to 1 instead.
If X is equal to or greater than 3, and Y is equal to X, increase Y by 1.
For each Aegis that the soul is holding, increasing Y by one.
If Y is greater than 5, increase the Soul’s power by 1.
The Soul increases their Prominence by Y, and makes a story post detailing the events of this atomic action.

If https://blognomic.com/archive/dungeons_and_dynasties did not pass, add a new rule to the ruleset titled “Power” as follows:

Each Soul has an amount of power, defaulting to 0.

 

This isn’t intended to replace the challenge system, but can also function in the absence of it. I constructed it as a way to gradually increase prominence, with greater returns as you get access to higher dynasties.

Arthexis, generally it’s considered good etiquette to wait until a proposal can’t be edited any longer to cast a vote, otherwise you make it so that the proposal can’t be edited if someone finds something wrong with it.

against Also a bit grindy, if (if I’m reading this right) there’s no downside to a failed roll and this is something you should do every day just in case it succeeds?

against I like the value this places on Strata, but there’s no risk involved.
