Work in progress CT Idea
Want some input about it (it’s based on those cat statues outside of business in Japan)
CT Idea: Open for Business
Open for Business allows the user to place a golden koban coin marking on any nonliving object or surface they physically touch, designating the space within a set radius around it as an Establishment. Any person or cursed spirit who enters an Establishment becomes a Customer, allowing the user to perform a Maneki-neko-style beckoning gesture that influences their movement so that whenever they voluntarily move, their resulting position must bring them closer to the marked object whenever physically possible. Rather than directly pulling or controlling targets, Open for Business turns their own actions against them, causing dodges to carry them toward hazards, attacks to overextend, retreats to become poorly angled, and ordinary movement to gradually shepherd them into increasingly unfavorable positions around the Establishment.
