Creature Card Ideas: Dark School
« on: July 02, 2013, 02:27:48 AM »
Hey people, just some ideas I had for Dark school creatures.  I'll be releasing similar ideas for each school so Arcane Wonders, keep a look out :P.

(Disclaimer: I don't know how to balance cards, but you get the idea.)

Bone-Blade Suitor (9 mana) (0-0 range) (zone) (undead, skeleton) (level 2)

1 armor

9 health

8+ defense (1x)

Quick Attack (Serrated Strike): 4 dice, Bleed on 8+

Elusive, Frost Immunity

They dance a crimson waltz, perfecting their gruesome craft in tribute to the Bride.


Ravenous Hellhound (9) (0-0 range) (zone) (demon, canine) (level 2)

1 armor

9 health

Quick Attack (Bite): 4 dice, Piercing +1

Full Attack (Fang Flurry): 3 dice, doublestrike

Discarded in the Darkfenne as failed Sortilege experiments, the hellhounds serve their demonic masters with frenzied loyalty.


Festerling (6 mana) (0-0) (zone) (monstrosity, construct) (level 1)

0 armor

6 health

Quick Attack (Fists): 2 dice

Full Attack (Noxious Burst):  3 dice, zone attack, Effect die: Rot 9+


Fester Golem (13 mana) (0-0 range) (zone) (monstrosity, construct) (level 3)

0 armor

16 health

Quick Attack (Fetid Fists): 5 dice

Damage Barrier, Poison (Putrid Flesh): 2 dice, unavoidable Effect die: Rot 7+

Slow, Regenerate 2, Psychic Immunity, Poison Immunity



Lorana, the Cursed Bride (16 mana) (0-0) (zone) (undead, high elf) (level 4)

2 armor

15 health

Quick Attack (Pestilent Swipe): 4 dice, Effect die: 8+ Rot

Nonliving, Frost Immunity, Legendary

As a Full Action, you may choose a non-mage living creature up to one zone away from Lady Lorana.  Immediately take one Quick Action with that creature (its action marker remains unchanged).

Lady Lorana sold her soul to Moloch, that her beauty may seduce even after death.  Now, in service to the Crown, she turns would-be suitors into slaves.


Mournmaw, Shadow Fort Cerberus (21 mana) (0-0) (zone) (demon, canine) (level 5)

3 armor

13 health

Quick Attack (Crunch): 4 dice, Effect Die: Bleed on 5-9, 2 Bleed on 10+

Full Attack (Howling Frenzy): 3 dice, triplestrike

Bloodthirsty +2, Flame Immunity, Legendary, Dark Mage Only

Adramelech's personal hound acts as both gatekeeper and custodian of the Shadow Fort, consuming any soul unfortunate enough to wander upon its grounds.


Flemgore, Rotting Emissary (12 mana) (0-0) (zone) (undead, noble) (level 3)

1 armor

11 health

1 Channeling

Quick Attack (Skeletal Talons): 3 dice

Nonliving, Necromancer Only

Once per round, when a level 1 or level 2 Undead or Construct creature you control and own is destroyed, you may pay mana equal to the creature's Level +1.  If you do, immediately summon that creature to the caster's zone and flip its action marker to the active side.  Remove that creature from the game at the end of the round or if it is destroyed.

"Obey or resist--it matters not.  As sure as the grave, all will serve the Bog Queen in time."
