Proposal: Atlas Obscura

Times out 3-2-0. Enacted by Brendan.

Adminned at 05 Dec 2021 15:53:20 UTC

Rewrite the rule Lost Relics to read as follows:

A Relic can be Lost or not Lost, defaulting to not Lost. When a Relic becomes Lost, it ceases to be held by any Soul who is holding it. Each Lost Relic has a Location, which must be the name of one of the first 99 Dynasties (following the referencing convention set out in the rule Gates); there is a publicly tracked list of all Lost Relics and their Locations, called Obscurity. Whenever a Relic is added to Obscurity, it is added to the top of the list.

Whenever a Soul has Dimension Access to the Sixth Dynasty of Josh they may, as a daily action, Cast a Relic Into The Timestream. Casting a Relic Into The Timestream entails selecting a single Relic that they hold and making it be Lost by adding it to Obscurity, with a Location that is the valid dynasty of their choice.

A Soul may gain a Lost Relic whose location is a Dynasty to which they have Dimension Access as a daily action, provided that doing so does not cause them to exceed the maximum number of Relics they can hold at a given time, as set out in the rule Relics of Power.

Hmm, I wonder if this is the first step of a multi-stage scam.

You of all people should be reluctant to vote down proposals on the basis of the presumed intent of the author, Brendan.

Point taken, but I am actually curious about the disjunct of terms in the last paragraph—is “a Lost Relic from a Dynasty to which they have Dimension Access” meant as “a Lost Relic whose Location is a Dynasty etc etc” or is it intentionally fuzzy with regard to the idea that Relics are created from past Dynasties?
