Woohoo! Paris, TX is about 110 miles away.

I’ve been to Paris IL and Paris France.

Like they say in Indiana, French Lick - not nearly as interesting as it sounds.

Neither is Paris IL. :P

another suggestion to offset other Psychic enablers: have the Skull instead [or also] convert all "Imbues Psychic ability" abilities to "may use 1 additional different Psychic Power" (so Dark Disciple's Shirt would grant 2 additional Psychic Power uses under this effect)? it would make the Skulls (both semi-lich and Cavadar) more desirable to own in tandem, doesn't seem like it makes Cavadar excessively powerful, and revitalises old "imbues Psychic ability" tokens

Are you suggesting two versions of the final product, one with added HP, one without?

Ideally not, just the lone recipie with the skull.

If needed, I suppose there could be one with and one without, though that seems fraught with possible exploitation. And makes things more fun for Trent, so.....

-1 one of the biggest draws the the transmute over the teeth (for me at least) would be not having to equip enablers anymore. If I'm reading the suggestion right this would require skull users to keep those old enablers on. IMO let those go to future loose tooth users (and I think there will still be a very good case for using an enabler and say the 5 easier to get loose teeth in years to come if you dont make the skull during the window)

I agree with that. If someone has a Semi-Lich and wants to move to the Eldritch Skull of Cavadar, there are likely numerous people now and in the future that have individual teeth but not the transmute that would like to obtain the Semi-Lich. I'd rather not try to incorporate any of the UR tokens into the recipe, I'd rather those end up with people that need them to access individual teeth. If I recall correctly that's a main reason that Jeff created the Semi-Lich skull, for people that had individual teeth but weren't going to be able to get the Eldritch Skull.

You wouldn't need to equip the existing enablers. You'd just still have more reason to keep them around and use them if you chose to equip them, since their no-longer-useful power would be replaced.

This suggestion has nothing to do with the transmute recipe and has impacts to tokens other than the Semi-Lich Skull.
