You're so ridiculously clever Xoe. This feels so dystopian and serious but there's always this playful under tone of let's see what happens IF... in your work.
Maybe people will rise above and have a nice little Legle system for their world with no tears shed at all. Or maybe the world will burn in a chaotic angry fury of uncooperative frustration. *shrugs*
I can just imagine a discussion of: NO! Sneezing on a deer isn't going to HARM it.
You don't know the ramifications of that plague-ridden sneeze! I think you should be executed.... well at least banished.
Third player chimes in: That's a bit harsh. Would you settle for paralysis? Maybe we should call in the one eyed judgy bot... I mean Automated Arbiter.
Absolutely marvelous! Feels like exactly the kind of stuff I'd want in the proposed card deck: a weird sci-fi-ish, fantastic concept that immediately evokes limitless narrative on its own — I can't even conceive yet of all the possibilities that come with a few more cards in the mix 😵💫 A solo journal of an immortal repeatedly running afoul of the rules? A whole party of automated arbiters dishing out justice? Attacking and dethroning the god behind the tyrannical Lēglē regime?

omigosh, thank you so much Angel! I love games that let players be as amiable or adversarial as they want.
This sounds like it would be a lot of fun to add in. Great work
Thank you so much!!
Absolutely marvelous!

I love all these creative possibilities that I had not considered when drafting this!
