BlogNomic: The First Dynasty of Desertfrog

A few problems:

* There’s nothing stopping the Explorer from using Shoo as a Planned Action if their Kindness is already 0.

* Who is determining the secretly random horizontal direction? The Explorer who did the Shoo? The Narrator?

The first one is intentional, I don’t think Explorer must only Shoo once and then find a way to increase Kindness.

As Planned Actions are carried out by the Narrator during the Mansion Phase, and the cat’s Location is also tracked by them, I think it’s the Narrator who throws the dice. Do you think I need to elaborate that part?

Changed the last sentence for clarification

I found the clarification on both points helpful, thanks for that!

Now that I understand your intention with the Kindness value I can vote appropriately later.

I think of finding a way for the cat to do useful things for Kind Explorers, but I’m worried about interactions with the Katastrophe :) So what do you all think about, say, attaching items to the cat’s collar and beckoning it around? Currently it seems to risk to get Katastrophed (if that’s a bad thing), and a bit slow way to carry items maybe..

Sounds interesting, but I would make that a separate Proposal.

Should this be a non-negative integer? Because if I remember correctly, integer is a set of valid values so it doesn’t trigger the automatic non-negative clause of Numbers and Variables.

Corrected, thanks

Now that the cat gives Katastrophe I think that the Kindness restriction might be a mechanic too far.

I like where Possession is going with other Proposals and with possibly more spirits, I think that this Proposal is becoming obsolete.
