Default Cool Blood Site Idea

The Vale of Infinite Horrors gave me an idea. While it presently has no positive attributes. it would be cool if a blood mage could enter and send a horror to attack a province each turn.

If that is a bit much, maybe a lesser horror.

I think, it'll be hard to implement because now "enter site" order is not parametrized and you suggest to parametrize this site action with province number)

You haven't played EA Agartha, have you? They can scry from their starting site.

There is also a random site that allows you to scry any province you want.

Just forgot about it. I know the race well, but I didn't play them - that's true)

Regrettably, it is only new players whose blood mages get eaten by horrors/lesser horrors. Experienced ones either banish it to the inferno or kill it with a life for a life.

But Vale of Infinite Horror is pretty much the Blood equivalent of Inkpot End. I like these sites that only do bad stuff.

More sites is a good suggestion!

Also, do you really want to give send lesser horror for free? It is a pretty good PD/temple killer.
