community-cypher-system-ref.../patches/de-ogcsrd/021-remove-creating-cyphers-artifacts-and-abilities.patch
Brian S. Stephan ed7b0a1696
remove a lot of the OG extra content and similar references
these are things that are not included in my version because they're
homebrew, because they are a lot of writing/creativity that I don't feel
comfortable stealing/distributing, or so on

this includes ideas that I like, but either plan to write my
own way in the future, or again I just don't feel comfortable copying
verbatim, especially if, for instance, I have my own process and don't
need to advocate for a different one

-In the Cypher System, discovering things isn't just for players. Thankfully, the game provides us some quick and easy
-ways to try anything once, especially where the PCs are concerned. If you've come up with the idea for an ability, or a
-player wants to try out a special customization for their PC, try it as a [cypher](#choose-cyphers) first! For example,
-let's say a player wants to try out focus abilities beyond their current tier. You could create a cypher that lets them
-do exactly that---for one day.

-The cypher's effects can\'t last more than one session, but might give you a good basis on which to judge how
-dangerous, delightful, or disruptive it might be. If you'd like to continue playing with things, refine your cypher
-into an artifact. If you're worried something is too powerful, you can also add balancing factors:

- number of abilities you choose is equal to the cypher level. The abilities you gain are slightly unstable, and any

-By the time the artifact depletes, you'll be in a better position to assign an [initial cost](#rules-initial-cost) for
-it as a [special ability](#choose-abilities), or to decide if the PC can [revive](#optional-rule-reviving-artifacts) the
-artifact, or make its effects permanent by [spending XP](#choose-xp).
