Custody and Proof
Custody is the playable question of who can make a recorded reality count. In Storyteller, a death, confession, memorial, edit, apology, contract, voiceprint, or legal body does not fully exist until it has been routed through a recognized custody chain. This extends the rule that only an up-screened reality becomes system reality.
Custody objects
- Black-box clip — raw incident record, powerful and unstable until named.
- Archive shard — partial proof retained by an unauthorized historian, fan cell, editor, or inspector.
- Voice key — performer voice/likeness authorization, especially after disaster or memorialization.
- Legal body file — the corporate, medical, or legal record that decides whether a person is alive, dead, missing, retired, or asset-continuing.
- Memorial license — permission to turn grief into broadcast, sponsor protection, fan oxygen, or a permanent route asset.
Custody holders
- 白昼圣女 holds public sanctity and fan oxygen.
- 折纸经纪人 holds contracts, schedules, and damage control.
- 黑箱剪辑师 holds editable evidence and cut continuity.
- 未授权史官 holds unauthorized memory, archive shards, and counter-narrative continuity.
- 白手套监察 holds legal-body access, admissibility pressure, and inspection escalation.
Play rule
A custody object can be moved, sealed, burned, edited, or up-screened only through a rite or event with matching permissions. Required permissions include 退场权, 造景权, 冠名权, and 近身权. Local counters such as fan_oxygen, archive_integrity, continuity_debt, legal_body_exposure, and sponsor_stop_loss are costs/proofs, not replacement HP bars; terminal pressure remains schedule/license collapse.
