Mechanics

Rules should be readable before they become signatures.

This is the safety layer: what can change, what cannot be undone, and what the wallet will eventually be asked to approve.

Potential

Potential is a lifespan budget. It is not a power score and it is not guaranteed rarity.

Evolution

Evolution is automatic and driven by eligible hold time or paid market activity. It changes an artifact without fully rerolling it.

Corruption

Corruption is permanent. It can stabilize an artifact early and may block future actions depending on the effect.

Freeze

Freeze stops future evolution by choice. It preserves a state, but sacrifices the remaining unknown future.

Merge

Merge consumes one fragment of each form and creates one assembled artifact with full source lineage.

Lineage

Assembled artifacts preserve source snapshots, states, traits, and lifecycle histories.

World stability

New waves unlock when the world stabilizes.

Stability combines wave mint progress with roughly a week of collector activity. Merges push hardest, freezes preserve state, evolutions move the world forward, and corruption resists the reveal.

Transaction guard

No direct irreversible signing

Before merge, freeze, or burn-like actions, the backend must simulate the result and the UI must show the exact consequence.
