When you gain an Action, move 1 from its pile to this. When you buy a Curse, take the from this. Setup: Put 2 on each non-Gathering Action Supply pile. |
Defiled Shrine is a Landmark from Empires. It acts kind of like a Gathering card, accumulating tokens as players gain Actions, and then giving them to a player when they buy a Curse.

FAQ
Official FAQ
- Note that this triggers on gaining an Action, whether bought or otherwise gained, but only on buying Curse, not on gaining Curse other ways.
- tokens will go on the Ruins pile (from Dominion: Dark Ages) when used, but not on Farmers' Market, Temple, or Wild Hunt (the three Action - Gathering cards).
Other Rules Clarifications
- When you gain a Temple in a game with Defiled Shrine, you can choose which order the two on-gain effects trigger, and so can gain all of the on the Temple pile before one is sent to the Defiled Shrine.
- Setup instructions should happen in an order that allows everything to happen, so an Action Bane added by Young Witch would still get 2 put on it.

Secret History
It triggered on gaining a Curse, but it was not entertaining in games with Witches, so now you have to buy the Curse. The "non-Gathering" thing was a late change to deal with poor interactions between this and the cards that put on their own piles. It's kind of weird to have that type there just for this one thing, but it also ties the cards together. That's what I said when insisting on that change, and people's reactions to the Gathering cards has borne that out; they really are tied together.
