and the prize, which may contain a positive amount of acorns, a positive amount of experience, a positive statistic modifier that may be temporary or permanent, or some other temporary or permanent positive effect that only directly effects the Einherjar who is attempting the challenge (but it may indirectly effect other things, such as some Special Abilities sway the outcome of a skirmish).

Insert the following text before the sentence that that says “All Challenge Posts are subject to the Allfather’s approval.”

A Challenge Post shall also contain a Penalty. A penalty can contain the following: A negative amount of acorns, a negative amount of experience, a negative statistic modifier that may be temporary or permanent, some other temporary or permanent negative effect that only directly effects the Einherjar who is attempting the challenge (but it may indirectly effect other things, such as some Special Abilities sway the outcome of a skirmish).

If the attempt fails, the attempting Einherjar may not again attempt a Challenge Post until the next week.

If the attempt fails, the Einherjar suffers the effects of the Penalty stated in the Challenge Post. If the Allfather rolled a 1 or 2 in the DICE10 roll, and the Einherjar failed the attempt, the attempting Einherjar may not again attempt a Challenge Post until the next week
