Proposal: Safekeeping

Withdrawn. Failed by Kevan.

Adminned at 01 May 2024 09:24:01 UTC

Rename the Rule “Containers” to “Pouches”.

Add a new rule after “Pouches” named “Chests” with the text

Each Thief has a chest, which can contain 2 Possessions. As a daily action, a thief may Take Inventory.

Taking inventory is one of

- privately viewing and publicly taking one possession out of their chest

- privately viewing the contents of their chest

- privately viewing and publicly putting one possession into their chest.

Amend the effect of Lockpick to be “A thief may use a lockpick to make Taking Inventory entirely private and also able to operate on others’ chests.”

Enable stealing from others a bit. I think some direct pickpocketing is in order as well, to incentivise the use of chests.

against On the right lines, but the effect proposed for the lockpick is neither time- nor usage-limited, so as written it would permanently allow the user to steal from rivals at will.

against oops I gotta rewrite it then.
“A thief may use a lockpick to make their next Taking Inventory entirely private and also able to operate on others’ chests.”

Also missing the incentive to use chests anyways.

Agreed, as written there is no reason to use a chest but that could
Be added later.
