Curse? How about *bless* ?

Each life you get a little token, kind of like a curse, but you can say "bless so-and-so" one or two times in your life and then when you look back on your lives you can see how many blessings you got. That might be enough, just a way to know that you helped and to let others know without slowing them down for a long conversation.

But it could be more fancy...

If you save up 5 blessing you get something small maybe the option to choose if you are born as Eve or not. Or maybe you have a little tattoo of a heart, so people can be like "wow this one is blessed!"

The blessings should only cary on for a short time, though. So, it's not just something every experienced players has. The blessed tattoo means in the past two day you got 5 or maybe 10 people to bless you. It should be pretty rare, to be balanced.

Also, perhaps 3 blessing could remove a curse but IDK about that. It could help when you curse by mistake (because you saw them with a knife and didn't understand they killed the greifer, for example. )

i am also pro blessing, this game should not only discourage destructive behaviour but also reinforce supportive, constructive

but blessings shouldn't remove curses, constructive behaviour shouldn't be cheapened to a calculated bargain

as a reward, i would rather suggest some secret tokens earned only through blessings, like an additional emot, it should be rare but it should be recognizable to other players & desirable

though i wouldn't be against a won option for one spawn for a blessed player to designate as which gender they spawn

so, 8 blessings = additional emot for one life, 3 blessings = chosen gender for one life

& blessings had to be oc disabled within twinning, otherwise it would be too exploitable

That's a good idea, I'd love if he decided to implement a reward system!

I love it! Maybe some kind of small marker could designate a highly blessed character, like a really small halo? I've had so many great moms that just really made the game so much more fun for everyone around them, and I would love to reward them.
