The Devoted

Before the gathered congregation, we swear oaths of fealty to one another. The roar of a gong fills the air. When it fades, the congregation is gone — but the smell of incense lingers as we walk once more from the great hall.

  • The first traveller to devote themselves to another gains the Devoted’s Bargain.

  • Meanwhile, the traveller who gained the most followers becomes the party’s Idol. They gain brief, godlike powers. The Idol must immediately do one of the following things:

    • Choose any one Blessing owned by any traveller and convert it into a Bargain for that traveller.

    • Choose any one Bargain owned by any traveller and convert it into a Blessing for that traveller.

    • Take a Blessing or Bargain from one traveller and gift it to another traveller (not themselves).

HELP FROM AN ITEM

If any traveller that followed the Idol carries a LANTERN, they may claim the Devoted’s Bargain instead. If the Idol carries a lantern, the Idol may nominate a second Idol, to whom the same powers are granted.
