Proposal: Late Bloomers
Times out and passes 5-0. Enacted by Brendan.

Add a new rule to the ruleset, called The Floating Island:
The Great Sea page of the wiki tracks an NPC called Schwingrasen. Gaia may change the name of Schwingrasen in the ruleset and gamestate at any time, and must do so if it shares the name with any Island. Schwingrasen is not an Island and may not take any Actions of any kind. Schwingrasen has all of the gamestate variables that an Island does, except for Turn Timer, for which Schwingrasen may never have a value.
The default values for variables held by Schwingrasen are always the values for the relevant variables held by Schwingrasen.
If Proposal: Bird’s Eye View has not been enacted, add the following to the end of that rule: “As a Mandatory Action, an Island must set the value of one of Schwingrasen’s held gamestate variables to match their own value for that same Variable. As an Optional Action, an Island may set their value for one gamestate variable to match Schwingrasen’s value for that same Variable.”
If Proposal: Bird’s Eye View has been enacted, add the following to the first list of actions, which includes Roll and Flood:
*Seed: set the value of one of Schwingrasen’s held gamestate variables to match their own value for that same Variable
Then add the following to the second list of actions, which includes Pressurive, Vent and Deposit:
*Propogate: set their value for one gamestate variable to match Schwingrasen’s value for that same Variable
In either case: from the rule Growth, remove “The default value for Land is 5 and whenever an Island gains a new Level that Level has a default value of 0” and “and defaults to 0”. From the rule Tectonics remove “and defaults to 0” and “defaulting to Level 1”.
What will be preserved after the tsunami?
Brendan: he/him
I know what it means, but I’m hoping a follow-up will define “NPC” within the terms of the ruleset. Does it have a “standard English usage?”
