Replace Ulster/Fenian figures with Tuatha Dé Danann - #22
Merged
Conversation
The cast had drifted outside the Mythological Cycle. Re-skin every off-cycle figure onto Cath Maige Tuired / Lebor Gabála material, keeping each one's mechanical role byte-for-byte identical. Characters: - Scáthach of the Shadows (Ulster — Cú Chulainn's trainer) → Ogma Grianainech, champion of the Tuatha Dé and cutter of the first ogham. His lines now recall taking Orna, Tethra's sword, at Mag Tuired — which ties to the existing Tethra patron. - Fedelm the Seeress (Ulster — prophesies to Medb in the Táin) → Bé Chuille the Enchantress, one of the two witches who swore to Lugh they would wake the trees, stones and sods into a host under arms. Fitting for a game about falling stone; she now reads the stones, not a flame. - Bricriu of the Feast (Ulster — Fled Bricrenn) → Nuada Airgetlám, the silver-armed king Bres displaced — the game's own final boss. His service pours the ale of Goibniu's feast, which kept the Tuatha Dé from age and wounds, replacing the Ulster "Champion's Portion" framing. Floor events: - "The Fallen Fian" (Fenian) → "The Fallen of Mag Tuired". - "The Ríastrad's Echo" (Cú Chulainn's warp-spasm) → "Neit's Fury", after the Tuatha Dé war-god, grandfather of Balor. Id follows the rename. - "The Bradán Feasa" (reads as Fionn's tale) → "The Salmon of Segais", reframed onto the nine hazels over Nechtan's well — consistent with the existing Well of Segais event and Salmon's Passage omen. Service keys, handlers, params, and rewards are all unchanged, so balance is untouched. Sprite-map keys renamed to match. Old ids left in a player's codex simply stop matching a live entry and are ignored.

Service keys, handlers, params, and rewards are unchanged, so balance is untouched. Sprite-map keys renamed to match. Old ids sitting in a returning player's codex simply stop matching a live entry and are ignored — no crash; the new figures show as "???" until met.
