Thornwatch Tally
Season Arc · Shelob's Web @ Buckhorn
1All-In league: Thornwatch Tally stays with its holder — only its number moves with each week's standings.
Character Sheet
AI-written · FATE styleStamped from a scorecard that never quite balanced, the Thornwatch Tally was kept by a reluctant clerk who hid it in the rough beside Buckhorn's old thorn line. Each wayfarer who carried the tag added a notch, and the count grew until the disc began to hum whenever a new holder stepped onto the tee.
A light, dark green disc that records each transfer in faint script and hums softly when a holder's total rises. Its ink fades in fog and returns at dusk, and it is thin enough to slide into a card sleeve. The tally marks never wear off, even when the disc is left in the damp.
Keeps a running count of every tag transfer across all leagues, giving each holder a cumulative total that carries from one league to the next. It does not grant power itself; it simply remembers who held the tag and for how long, and the fellowships argue over what that memory means.

Thornwatch Tally slips off the main series stage, tally marks humming, bound for Shelob's Web @ Buckhorn. Anthony Bodanza is the one carrying it in. The count follows, and the ink fades in fog. The main arc keeps rolling without it. Side quest accepted. Your narrator remains in the booth.
