item-provenance

name: item-provenance description: Adds origin/provenance + rumor hooks to Emberwild item entries and updates indexes. metadata: short-description: Add item backstories + links

Goal

Take a batch of items and add micro-lore depth WITHOUT changing tone or breaking formatting.

Inputs I will be given

• A source file (usually 08_Items/Items_Master_List - GLOBAL A-Z.md or a region pack)
• A batch size + range (e.g., items 001–050)

Steps

1. Preserve existing numbering + fields.
2. Add these fields per item:
   • Origin:
   • First Known Maker:
   • Rumor:
   • See also: (3 markdown links to existing relevant files/sections)
3. If needed, create 1–3 tiny supporting lore stubs (short files) ONLY when no good link targets exist.
4. Update 00_MASTER_INDEX/Items_Index.md if new files were created or new packs added.

Output

• A concise summary + list of touched files.
• A “review checklist” (formatting, links, tone).
