This deck is locked. Further cards should not be added - leave feedback on the talk page.

In this game, players choose a "Style" and use the spells in that "Style" to battle other players. Players spend SP (represented by a token of some sort) to play these spells.

Special Rules

-At the beginning of the game before you draw your hand, choose 1 Style card in which to play as.
-Each turn, every players gains 1 SP.
-Cards and actions that are the same Style as the player cost 2 less SP to play, with a minimum of 0.

Trading

-Players may choose at any time during their turn to trade cards with another player.
-Players do NOT reveal the specific card offered for trade. Players must reveal the Styles, however.
-Players can lie about anything else about the card up for trade.

Combat Rules

-Things have HP. The HP is restored back to full at the beginning of that player's turn.
-Players have 10 HP. If a player's HP reaches 0, he or she loses. This is not the only way to win.

Special Cards

-Reaction Cards: These can be played whenever an opponent plays an Action, provided you can pay the SP cost.
-Rune Cards: Runes are special Thing cards that stay in play for 3 turns, and then are destroyed.

Styles

Each style has its own way of waging war!

Psychic- This Style manipulates opponents with tricks they won't expect!
Arcane- This Style uses really really powerful actions at a high cost.
Stone- This Style won't break down so easily!
Sky- This Style likes freedom.
Biology- Zerg rush!
Technology- This Style is from the future.
Elemental- This Style uses classic RPG elements to inflict stereotypical damage.
Necromancy- This Style likes it when things die.
Light- This Style is good with protection and healing.

Note that some cards may not utilize a Style.
