# Necron Amulet Shards

Necron Amulet Shards are limited-supply assets designed to serve as the primary distribution mechanism for Necron Amulets.

They do not represent equity, ownership in the studio, campaign rewards, or long-term standalone utility. Their sole purpose is to provide a structured and finite pathway to minting Necron Amulets.

### Purpose and Design

The shard-based system exists to achieve three goals:

* **Controlled Distribution**\
  Ensure that access to Necron Amulets is distributed deliberately and transparently.
* **Fair Entry Point**\
  Provide multiple aligned groups with a clear opportunity to participate, rather than favoring speed alone.
* **Ecosystem Funding**\
  Support early-stage development, operations, and ecosystem growth in a non-inflationary manner.

Necron Amulet Shards are intentionally temporary assets. They are designed to be burned, not held indefinitely.
