A few minutes ago I noticed that the Horsehead Amulet apparently works much differently than it did before. It is now located in the Curiosity section of the Inventory and this has been added to the old description:[The amulet's use has changed; it no longer needs to be equipped, but will save you, once, when you die in the Fifth City.] It still seems to retain its "-2 Wounds" property, though. I can't test it right now, but this seems like a good thing to make known.

Aww man, I like my amulets! I only have two, and I'd really like to keep them. More incentive not to die I suppose. But a choice to use them or not would be nice.

Oh no - all those amulets I sold when we had the old random reward system!

Sorry RL means I am not a very active player at the moment. No social actions unless you are prepared to wait and definitely no sparring or other mult-action things.
No Calling Cards or boxed cats please. Will take dupes on the affluent photographers. Other social invitations welcome. Parabolan Kittens usually available, send me an in-game social action saying you want one and I will get one to you as soon as possible.

I am so glad that I never sell anything if at all possible. I suppose I can count it as frequent die-er miles from all those Scars...
Also, I'm not sure if the -2 wounds will have any practical effect; the Starveling Cat has a -1 to persuasive, after all, but it doesn't ever do anything.

I must say though, if they become difficult to get (or god-forbid, removed due to inability to get more), this will play havoc with anyone who wishes to play through the Temple Club's storyline.

You can still sell them at the Bazaar, but now they go for 2 echoes, when formerly you could buy them for 1.6 echoes and sell for 16 pence.

I just died by looking into Heart's Mirror, and nothing abnormal has happened. I'm on the boat with no actions and no cards, and the Amulet is unusable. Lovely.
One nice new thing I noticed, though, is that when you're in a situation where you can't use items in your inventory (like being dead, for example), the green border changes to red. So I guess this trip hasn't been entirely worthless?
EDIT: Kind of on that note, does anybody know of an item that increases wounds (like now the Modish Bonnet increases Scandal ot the Sporing Bonnet increases Nightmares)? I need to catch up on my chess.

I don't think the Mirrors are the best way to test stuff like that, they tend to be less of a "You have died/gone crazy" and more of a "Direct Transit Line To Menace Location" type thing.

Since the Mirror provided nothing, it's time to go wrestle tigers with a Talkative Rattus Faber in tow.
