Last but not least, the star toad pocket creature. Produces an infinite amount of star candies but dispenses only one per day. Some found flavors include lava fumes, rye bread, persimmon leaves, and goblin toes.

This is a post I'm interested to be seen by people who either do not play Magic: the Gathering or engage with it rather casually. If that's not you, feel free to reblog to reach a wider audience, but the exercise in here will not be as useful.

A few months back, the game released a new Base Set of cards called Foundations. It is meant to be a new batch of hundreds of cards that will always be available, that are simpler on average (though not necessarily less powerful) to be a point of entry for new players. Something else it does wonderfully is be a palette of the many worlds, aesthetics and vibes within the game. This is where you come in:

This is the important bit below

Take a look at the cards in the set! You don't even have to read them, there are many, many of them. If one of them or more catches your attention, reblog this post with an image of it, and if you want to learn anything more about it! Be it the world it depicts, its history within the game, or even the mechanics if they are what intrigues you.

This is the important bit above

Some of the cards are either generic or from worlds we haven't visited yet, but the vast majority fit within a larger whole, and there might be more like them to point at! I will try to elaborate on what you want to learn, and maybe even point you towards similar cards or entire card sets on the world or subject you took note of.

In case you're totally unfamiliar with the game, I'll put a short summary under the cut:

Magic: the Gathering is a fantasy trading card game that's over thirty years old. People are invited to create their own deck of cards out of a pool of nearly 30,000 different cards at this point. The gameplay has been summed up many times as being something that sits in between Chess and Poker as far as overall appeal, though the actual action-by-action game is unlike both of them. Just like with playing cards, though not as extreme, there are different ways to play with the cards too, varying which are legal, or the exact rules they're played under.

It is a deep game that can be enjoyed at many levels of engagement, and will take exactly as much time and money out of you as you're willing to give it. From $0 free to play gaming on arena or occasional board game night engagement, to spending hundreds regularly to keep up with a tournament metagame, to spending thousands if not tens of thousands on super rare collectible cards.

In the past few years, Magic has started collaborating with other franchises to make cards for their properties. Lord of the Rings, Fallout, Doctor Who, and plenty more, though it keeps making cards for its own worlds and lore.

That lore can be summed up as a magical multiverse full of very different worlds, each with their own aesthetics, magics, factions and struggles. They are interconnected by rare mages that are able to travel between them, and a major event recently started connecting them further, allowing the layperson to be able to travel between them using less practical ways to do so. Within those worlds, stories happen, sometimes through the cards themselves, sometimes through written fiction, be them novels, online stories or even comic books. Magic cards are divided into five different colors of magic, each with its own associated philosophy, elemental associations, mechanics, aesthetics. Those five colors can then combine and interact to form complex characters, factions, spells and more.

*juli awakes… her head hurts…. She sits up to see what looks like a full miniature crane. It is lifting up a bed tray with soup on it slowly up.*

[your up. Soup will be there in a moment]

*juli waits patiently as the mice deliver her breakfast in bed.*

“Thank you”

[no worries, metal winged one told us to do this.]

“Who?”

[oh you don’t know? Metal one named AMU has grown wings.]

“What!”

“Yes… a few things has happen since you have been out. You guys can leave now”

[right away ma’am!]

*the mice leave taking there crane with them*

*I regain consciousness, at my feet is the body of the, now former, head of the port mob… in my right hand is the head of a wooden figure head. The figure head was taken from the boss’s old ship… I look over to see the statue missing a head… splinters everywhere. I feel a warmth at my feet and notice that a pool of blood has formed and is now surrounding my feet. ‘What happened, why am I holding this head, what happened to my boss’. I crouch down to examine closer and notice wooden splinters and scratch and blunt wounds all over… the. I look at the head and notice a red stain…*

“Oh”

*I drop the wooden head and stand up. I walk back three steps… I look down and see the footprints my boots left behind*

“ooOOoooh… cool, don't you agree?”

“Ah!”

*a voice invades my mind*

I think we have enough. You can still join, but we have so many.

Pocket creature no. 3. This one is pretty cool. It can change daytime environments to night and night time environments to day, but only for the owner. Also it kind of runs out of magic after a minute or two and needs to recharge for a while after.

Let's build a dungeon! Add something you think a dungeon needs!

*it has been a day, Jade and Alice has been settling in to the three roomed shack the doctor loves in. The Bed room which the doc has given up to the kids till they can add onto the house. The living room/kitchen, and the medical practice room/office.*
