Proposal: Cavity Issues

Failed at 2-10 (enough AGAINST votes that it can’t reach quorum without a change of vote). -Purplebeard

In rule 2.13 (“Sweets”), at the end of “A Student may eat a Sweet they own, at any time, by removing it from their Tuck.”, add:

If that Student has no Cavity enchantment, he gains a Cavity enchantment with a Force of 1. Otherwise, he increments by one the Force of his Cavity enchantment.
If this would increase the Force of the enchantment to 6 or higher, it instead sets all the grades of that student to ‘F’ and that student’s condition is turned into a Zombie, dying of overwhelming magical cavities.

Create a new rule, named “Brushing teeth”, with the text:

Brushing your teeth is a weekly action and removes your Cavity enchantment if you had one.

Create a new subrule to rule 2.8 (“Spells”) named “Brosseae Àe Dentae”, with the text:

Difficulty Level: ALC(-3)
Effect: Removes the Target’s Cavity enchantment if it had one. If the Target is not the caster, the Target must join the spell, or there is no effect.
If the Caster’s grade in ALC is D, E, F or Ungraded, and if the Target is Alive, the caster must roll a DICE2 in the GNDT. On a 1, the target’s condition is set to Zombie.

Eating too much magical candy gives magical cavities. Brushing teeth is about as weekly as going to the washroom. Drinking a potion made by someone who fails his Alchemy class is not a good idea.

imperial The removal effects seem a bit cheap.

against Seems like a fiddly extra mechanic and the ruleset already has enough fiddly mechanics.

imperial I’d like it more without the spell and if it didn’t effect your grades. Why would candy give me bad grades?

against Nobody’s ever going to eat enough candy to kill themselves without brushing their teeth once, which makes this, as Josh says, a fiddly thing to keep track of for no real reason.  I like the basic concept behind the risky potion, though.

I guessed the candies would end up having some uses, and I wanted to preemptively prevent the use of an abusive amount of them at once. (ie: a student with “F” in LAT trying to cast a spell by eating 8 Chocolate Basilisk).

The spell was to give another way to brush your teeth, so it’s not only a “You may eat only 5 sweets per week”.
