Proposal: Stardust
timed out and unpopular 1-6 failed by card

Add a new rule called “Stardust” with:
Each Prince has a non-negative integer amount of Stardust which defaults to 3. A Prince can, if they have an empty space in their inventory, create a noun in that inventory space, by paying Stardust equal to the amount of characters that noun has. A Prince gains 1 Stardust each time they roll into the Katamari a word which has more letters than any other word the Katamari has. A Prince gains 1 Stardust each time they Squish another Prince. A Prince loses 1 Stardust each time they are Squished.
Amend “A Prince may spend 4 Stamina to remove this “Squished” status.” to:
A Prince may spend 4 Stamina to remove this “Squished” status from themselves.
Points or exotic currency. Also a rider to solve an ambiguity.
Sylphrena:
I’m intrigued by the idea, but I’m not sure that the Squished status can support this much gameplay as it’s written now. Currently, by my reading of the rules, Squished is synonymous with “has their name in the Katamari” (which makes the “remove the ‘Squished’ status” line a little weird; the way I read it, spending 4 stamina either does nothing or has the unwritten consequence of ejecting the Prince from the Katamari, and that ambiguity makes neither outcome super desirable). “Squishing” is not an action defined by the ruleset. So,
for now, but nothing against the proposal itself.
