Proposal: Seeds and Popcorn

Self-killed. Failed by pokes.

Add to the list of spells:

[NNN] Seed: Create a Seed, which are noted in the GNDT as “S” alongside your shards (Seeds occupy the same space as shards in a Tesserer’s Shard inventory). At-will, a Seed can be destroyed to make two Nature Shards for yourself.
[FF] Flame Lance: Destroy a thing which occupies a space that Shards can occupy.

“Of course you should fight fire with fire. You should fight everything with fire.”

I’m a little confused on what space is referring to in this context. Is variable “Shards” that each Tesser have which is tracked in the GNDT considered a space? It’s an abstraction so I’m unsure on what the rules might yield.

I believe that yes, it effects anything in the Shards Field.

I think I like these. Though they presume that there will be lots of attempts to destroy shards, which makes me a little nervous.

I like these too although I agree the wording is confusing. I would be more comfortable if this was reworded to specify that:
- Flame Lance can destroy any object tracked in a Tesser’s shard field on the GDNT.
- A Tesser who destroys a seed receives two Nature shards. (with the current proposal it seems like only the Tesser who owns the seed can do this)

I would agree on this if it is reworded, even if I’m a little wary that a fire Tesser is proposing a rule allowing them to destroy other Tesser’s shards…
