Flickers

The Omphalic Market lists candles, torches, and lanterns for purchase. Each type of light source can flicker a certain number of times before it is extinguished.

Your light source flickers when the Meatgrinder says torches gutter. Candles can flicker 2 times. Torches can flicker 3 times. Lanterns can flicker 4 times.

Candles, torches, and lanterns are not designed for violence. Your light source automatically breaks and is extinguished if:

• It is hit in combat

• You use it as a weapon in combat

You can tie your lantern to your belt, but if you suffer a Wound, your lantern is also Destroyed, covering you in oil.

Dropping your light source might cause it to go out.

• Torches have a 50% chance of staying lit or being extinguished when dropped. Extinguished torches can’t be relit.

• Candles are extinguished when dropped. Candles may be relit.

• Lanterns are Destroyed when dropped.
