TOPIC: AOW effect

I saw Druegar posted on this and got excited because I thought he was sharing what the AoW is going to be.

9 years ago.

NINE.

Wow.
And by the HTML code, you can even tell it's from the old forums.

That.... is an evil question.

Now I want to see a Cursed Magic Item which does that:


Cursed Crown of Greed
+3 to any stat (your choice); -3 Treasure Chips at adventure's end.


Oooh, or an actual cursed item you can pick up in game.... it gets marked on the Player Card. When you get to the Treasure/XP room, the Volunteer at the desk says, "$CLASS NAME, please come forward. Here's your Completion tokens. Unfortunately, you picked up the Cursed Crown, so you do not get your base 3 Treasure chips, but you do get this limited edition Cursed Crown token. Enjoy!"

I know all the collectors would try it at least once, just to get the token ]

As long as multiple people on a run could get cursed. Or folk might fight over being cursed. Though cursed might not be strong enough since you can remove curses.

Perhaps this is Castle Altus

Though Jeff may want to do something more themed to the King Killer world for the special effects this year.

I'd never pull that trigger. On the other hand, if it was -1 to any Stat for +1 Treasure Chip, I'd have negative stats pretty quickly.

Goodbye Charisma. And intelligence.

I bet there'd be a very good token trading market for newbies/non-collectors who didn't want their "Cursed" token, trading it to collectors who do.

But you bring up a good point about the ability to remove curse.

Hypothetically, you could use this Cursed crown, and then turn in a scroll of Remove Curse (or use the Censor of Sacrifice & turn in 100 GP) in order to still get the Treasure chips. In which case, it would be an interesting way to make some old consumables have a purpose again.
