This page lists things that are likely to affect GOD crew, because they're special for this event and change how we normally do things.

This doesn't try to cover everything in the Winds of Fortune: sometimes player ask for information about conjunctions, or about how certain titles or opportunities work. They're things we might be able to help with, but they're not covered here because they don't fundamentally change how GOD processes work.

General event information

This is the Summer Equinox 386YE. This event, dusk is 20:30–21:30. Bows and crossbows cannot be used in Anvil after 21:30, and cannot be used on quests that start after 21:30.

If you have plot wiki access, see also Ref Info Summer 386, which covers a similar but different set of topics.

Character packs

Potions and similar

  • Shining like fire: Shimmering Echoes: Any mine that was enchanted with Revelation of the Jewel's Sparkling Heart during 2023 E4 will provide a single deepstone each event throughout 2024 in addition to other benefits. Green iron = warstones, weltsilver = bloodstones, tempest jade = spellstones, orichalcum = heartstones. If someone thinks they should have one, try to find out if they had that ritual cast on them at 2023 E4; if investigating that doesn't explain what's going on, escalate.

(Noted here because they're printed on character packs even if they're not things that go in character packs)

Wounds

Magical changes

Combing the Beach

  • Tales of mystery: Beaches and Nets: This ritual has been removed and cannot be cast. Anyone who once knew how to cast it will have had it removed from their character sheet. They can learn a new ritual in its place as normal, which they can do by logging in on the player PCs.

Distillation of Diverse Parts

Scrivener's Bloodmark

  • Famine and feast: The Lictors: If someone casts this ritual, invokes the Lictors, and spends one ring of ilium per target (which almost certainly means two rings of ilium), they get additional effects. If someone does this, simply record the fact in the ritual notes.

Golden Voyage

  • Famine and feast: Rhianos
    • Someone using a Tonic of Sunlit Glass during casting this ritual will gain two extra ranks of Summer Lore for the casting. There's no need to record if someone does this.
    • Someone who has the ritual mastered, and who invokes Rhianos while casting the ritual, can substitute weltsilver or orichalcum (or a mix thereof) for mana. Three ingots count as two mana. There's no need to record if someone does this.

Clear Counsel of the Everflowing River

  • Famine and feast: Sung: Someone who consumes a Goosewhisper Infusion for the casting will get (a) one extra rank of Night Lore and (b) is able to use up to three personal mana instead of crystal mana for the casting.
