| **Evidence record** | One committed capture, note revision, testimony, or instrument report with provenance, room instance, arrangement/life, and factual limit | Record existence, player annotation, attributed interpretation, and present truth. A historical mark never becomes current automatically. |
| **Survivor** | One authored person, last confirmed transfer state and source, and—once resolved—their actual location/state | Never cargo. Waiting, Prepared, In transfer, At abort refuge, and Sent are not interchangeable. Sent commits only when this same survivor has completed arrival aboard and the required ship airlock is closed; confirmation provenance remains separate from world state. |
| **Population/transient hazard state** | The current arrangement's physical source identities, committed arrivals, surviving creatures and exact hazard state needed to suspend the expedition | Living return and load create no replacement population. Current flow, temporary interruption and a completed physical seal are separate facts; earned world work follows its owning rule. |

| **Reward-stage state — proposed** | One separately authored finite stage tied to a physical source and arrangement generation; whether it is uncommitted, unresolved or spent; its pending offer if any | Withdrawal and re-entry do not create a new stage. A living return preserves spent state but removes the offer/upgrade. A later stage must name its distinct source or machinery wake. This row represents the provisional stage-only model, not a decision against regular defeated-enemy growth. |

| **Reward-stage state — proposed** | One separately authored finite stage tied to a physical source and arrangement generation; whether it is uncommitted, unresolved or spent; its pending offer if any | A closure before commitment prevents the release and creates no offer. After commitment, clear or source seal resolves the stage even before its peak; bodies already beyond the closure remain in population state. Withdrawal/re-entry creates no stage, and living return preserves spent state but removes the offer/upgrade. This remains provisional, not a decision against regular defeated-enemy growth. |
Every transition names the identity it mutates, its precondition, the point at which it commits, and what an interruption preserves. A collectible changes from source to carried in one commit; it is never copied and then deleted later. Incremental oxygen transfer moves exact O between the same two object states, stops at suit 12 O or vessel 0 O, and leaves untransferred gas in place. Capacitor acceptance/release records exact U and whether the first receiver accepted. Ordinary chosen release commits 2 U; temporary Thunderhead commits a full 4 U only after its preflight accepts. Later refusal cannot reverse either committed release.
