The corrupted bell

event Bell · Events (all zones)

Corruptormenu Bell is an event node in The Void. The heroes can attempt to corrupt their cards here. A successful corruption replaces the chosen card with its corrupted version, but an unsuccessful attempt will replace it with the Void Memory injury instead. Every attempt has a base cost of 300 shards (which can be modified depending on the choice selected when entering this node) and a base success rate of 70%. By paying one or more of the following additional costs, a hero can increase the odds that they successfully corrupt one of their cards by 10%: A hero can pay any number of these additional costs, including none at all, but they cannot pay the same additional cost multiple times on a single attempt. For example, a hero could pay 400 additional shards on one attempt and again on a second attempt to increase the success rate on both attempts by 10%, but they could not pay 800 additional shards on a single attempt to increase the success rate by 20%. For each attempt a hero has made to corrupt one of their cards (whether successful or not), the success rate for subsequent attempts by that hero is reduced by 10%. In front of you is a large ominous bell emanating a dark energy. If you ring the bell, you sense that some of the energy will come towards you and corrupt you in unexpected ways. Do you want to ring the bell?
