[ Straight reproposal of Catastrophe Curve, bearing in mind Hix’s veto - using a fresh keyword and allowing the Arbiter to manipulate such events. ]
Add the following paragraph to Rule 2.6 (The Timeline), after the third paragraph:-
Node Events with the “Perilous” keyword are too dangerous to manipulate directly, and can only be redescribed as the result of a side-effect, or by the Arbiter.
...and replace “Any Traveller may create or redescribe a Node Event” with “Any Traveller may create or redescribe a non-Perilous Node Event”.

“the encounter could create a time paradox, the results of which could cause a chain reaction that would unravel the very fabric of the space time continuum and destroy the entire universe! Granted, that’s a worst case scenario. The destruction might, in fact, be localized, limited merely to our own galaxy.”
