Scavenger of Fates -- A Forager-Spirit

Description
Eric: I agree to the terms for creating Spirit Island game elements set forth in the FAQ.[querki.net]



Scavenger of Fates is a high complexity Spirit of foraging and gathering. Its special mechanics enable it to Scavenge tokens and Power Cards, storing them in its Cache to reuse later.




INSTRUCTIONS

This Spirit was created for use with MJ & iakona's TTS mod, which can be found here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2104364163

To install, click the green Subscribe button on this page.

To add the content to your Spirit Island game, first boot up Tabletop Simulator and create an MJ+iakona Spirit Island room. Then open the Games menu from the top bar, hit the 3-dot button on Broker of Fates, and select "Additive Load".

Scavenger should appear in the upper left. From there you can hit the Select Spirit button and play them like any other spirit.




LORE

To find a seashell sitting atop a mountain hill, or fragments of jade and amber stashed in a hollow tree, is to know that Scavenger of Fates has passed by. A Spirit of seeking, hiding, and seeking-again, it eagerly gathers both the physical and the ethereal: Autumn's last warmth in a river stone, laughter trapped in hollow reeds, the sound of rain sleeping in rattling seedpods.

The Dahan accept its "borrowing" with resigned humor. Missing tools reappear several fields over. Children learn patience - their toys will return, though rarely where expected. Spirit-speakers follow its trails seeking lost items, though they may find twenty other stashed-away wonders first.

Initially enchanted by the Invaders' baubles, Scavenger now seethes. How dare they desecrate the cliffs of many eggshells, the tide pools of polished stones, the meadows where bones become beautiful beneath flowers?




PLAY STYLE

Scurries around the board to gather Spirit Tokens and preserve them when they would be used, then employs them as fuel for its Innate Powers. With clever management of its pile of shinies, it can be very versatile.

Doesn't create many tokens on its own, so it wants to find and preserve what it can. Needs to carefully consider when to hasten token effects with its left Innate Power; if it exhausts too many too early, it can find itself without options.




SPECIAL THANKS

Thanks as well to everyone who has playtested and offered feedback over the years, your advice has been instrumental in shaping this spirit.

In particular I'd like to thank AndRay, HorazVitae, and Lars1205 from the Spirit of Creation Discord server for their extensive playtesting and feedback. Your help has been absolutely invaluable and I appreciate it a ton :)
