Simple asnwer is Yes.

Direct quote from amendments page:
Carrying Items and Power Ratings
The ability for people to carry items of power in Erdreja has increased slightly.
Only items stop working or are destroyed by the following rule not other powers such as Special creatures, powers or talismanic auras. In addition rare items such as Artefacts and Iconic items are also immune to this destruction, and will not stop working.
If the sum of the Power Rating of all lammies you are carrying exceeds 12 then all items with a Power Rating greater than 0 that you carry will stop working immediately. If you exceed 13 points of power then your magical items (those items with a Power Rating greater than 0) will be Destroyed. Each item will become hot for 10 seconds prior to its destruction, first all potions and sigil effects (these all heat up and are destroyed together), then proceeding through each item starting at the one with the lowest Power Rating. If your Power Rating exceeds 14 points after all magical items on you have been Destroyed, then your torso will be Destroyed by Artefact damage. You may not sneak additional magic items onto another character without there being a ref present and aware of your intentions.
