City Gate/Treasure Map
Just keep topdecking your Treasure Map until it finds its other half. Really easy way to connect Treasure Maps.
Obviously only works if you have no drawers. Open City Gate/Treasure Map, then Treasure Map and other card that does not draw, then you should be able to connect the Maps before third reshuffle.
I'd try and get a +Buy card though
Yes, like Forager. Wait ...
Inheritance/Tournament (specifially, Followers)
With Inheritance, Followers becomes especially powerful because the Estate it gives you isn't junk anymore. I even bought Inheritance before Province in the game I played and I got 4/5 prizes and won the game before the other one was taken.
Your Estates will still be junk if your opponent has a Province in hand, though.
You don't have to choose to inherit Tournaments.

Prohibited is actually closer to an Adventures-style token, i just didnt want to have the rules for it buried in the rulebook, nor have it be player-specific. While there havent been non-player-anchored states, there's no reason to reinvent the wheel here - let states be attached to whatever and provide additional rules for what they're attached to.
Possibly interesting conceptually, though I think adding only Arson for all the Damage cards is not worth the complexity--especially along side it also being a Looter: I'd want additional cards that use Damage cards. Maybe give Arson a type similar to Looter?QuoteArson
Types: Action, Attack, Looter
Cost: $4
+$2. Each other player reveals the top card of their deck. If it costs $6 or less, they trash it, and gain a Ruins if it costs $1 or less and a Damage from one of the Damage piles.QuoteDamaged Laboratory
Types: Action, Damage
Cost: $1
If the number of cards you have in play is odd, +2 Cards. Otherwise, +1 Card, +1 Action.

Types: Action, Damage

Choose one: +1 Action and +1 Buy; or gain a card costing up to $3 from the Supply or one of the Damage piles.
(This is not in the Supply.)QuoteTarnished Silver

Worth 1VP if you have 3 or more Estates.

QuoteGremlin
$5 - Action/Attack/Doom
You may trash this, to move the Jinxed token to an Action supply pile. If you didn't, +2 cards, and each other player gains a card from the Jinxed pile.
-
Setup: Add an Kingdom Action pile costing up to $2 to the supply and put the Jinxed token on it. When a player plays a card from the Jinxed pile, they first receive the next Hex.
A way to use kingdom piles as junk. You can also use it as an expensive one-shot attack on your opponent's engine in a non-mirror. Of coure, instead of using tokens, you could use the randomizer or just an embargo token or something like that.
This is gonna make for really long, slow turns if you put the Jinxed token on something non-terminal.
2) In games without trashing, this would play a little weaker than a Witch.

If the ramifications of multiple players calling Totems is too confusing, I'll change it to only be callable on your turn and lower the price.
Submission for Renaissance.Would this make a slog of every game by hammering the Estates? A higher price seems much safer so decks build towards bigger greens.
QuoteSorcerer’s Apprentice Action - Traveller - $4*
Put a non-Reserve card from your hand onto your Tavern mat. If it is a...
...Action card, gain a card costing up to $5
...Treasure card, +$2, +1 Buy
...Victory or Curse card, +1 Card, +1 Action

When you discard this from play, you may exchange it for a Sorcerer.
(This is not in the Supply)
Are you sure? If your discard pile is empty, you're basically just drawing two cards and putting one onto your deck. That makes it a Secret Passage/Fugitive variant, both of which cost $4. If your discard pile has something useful in it, it's even more powerful.
I had this card idea, but it's probably too slow to resolve with all the decisions you have to make.
Rearrange, Action $2
+1 Action
Look through your discard pile and at the top card of your deck.
Set aside a card each from your hand, the top of your deck, and your discard pile.
Put one each into your hand, on the top of your deck, and your discard pile.
Edit: Forgot the +1 Action.
You could just make the rearranging forced:
Rearrange
+1 Action
Discard the top card of your deck.
Put a card from your hand on top of your deck.
Look through your discard pile. Put a card from it into your hand.
That's good, but I'd change the order so that you can put the original card back on your deck if you so choose. (That way you never end up worse off than you started.)
+1 Action
Discard the top card of your deck.
Look through your discard pile. Put a card from it into your hand.
Put a card from your hand onto your deck.
That makes it a little stronger too because you have to put 1 of 6 back on your deck, instead of 1 of 5. Still seems pretty weak though
We could add +1 card to it. Then it could cost $3 or $4.
Would be a bit boring, though.

Discard-playing effects are surprisingly absent from Nocturne.
