Welcome to Gaia! ::

Since Lina Inverse would have so absurdly obviously been a Cald Magi I made a gag magi based on her one time. ((Some people tell me that this purpose was fufilled by Grega))

Lina Inverse
Cald/Core Magi
Starting - Dragon Slave, Fire Ball,
Energy 16
Energize 4

Walking Force of Destruction- Power, 2 - The next spell that Lina Inverse casts which removes that much energy from another creature removes energy from another creature of your choice.

Dragon Spooker - Effect - The first time any turn Lina Inverse is attacked by a Hyren she loses no energy in the attack.

"L-Lina Inverse?! You mean the walking force of destruction?! The natural enemy of all who live?! The girl who leaves chaos and wreckage in her wake?! Lina, the Dragon Spooker?!"

With the exception of Naroom there's a significant lack of dual region core magi. Whether or not this is a good thing, well, ::shrug:: .

Valid point. I guess I've seen more play of Naroom Shadow Magi.

Cards I've made for the Insiider card contests (at least, all the ones I could find), presented in reverse chronological order:

TASK: Create a card based on something from another card game.
RESULT: Based on the concept of jade from Legend of the Five Rings.

Jade Trinket
Universal Relic
1
Effect - Safe Passage: While Jade Trinket is in play, Core creatures may not attack your magi if you have creatures on the field.
Power - Penetrating Force: (5) Discard Jade Trinket from play. If the opposing magi is Core, creatures you control may attack the opposing magi directly, even if they have creatures in play.

"I don't care how little of it is left! We need more if we want to survive!"


TASK: Create two creatures: One Teeth, one Cald. They must be playable by Shadow Magi of that region.
RESULT: Based on Disney's Fantasia, and one of my RP characters' speciality.

Chernabog
Kybar's Teeth Creature
6
Power - Menace: (3) The next time Chernabog attacks, it loses no energy in the attack.
Effect - Invunerability: Chernabog loses one less energy in attacks.
Kybar's Teeth Shadow magi may play Chernabog.

"That mountain's a lot balder without it there."
-Zarian

Breme
Cald Creature
4
Effect - Flashflame: Once per turn, after your magi casts a Cald spell, remove X energy from all creatures in play, including your own, where X is equal to the printed cost of the spell minus the energy you paid for it.
Cald Shadow magi may play Breme.

"You can't die at the etude! I'm not satisfied yet!"
-Aria


TASK: Create yourself as a Dream Creature.
RESULT: I'm proud to say this was the most unique entry in that contest.

Guilloch
Universal Dream Creature
3
Energize: (1)
Power - Storytelling: (X) Choose one: Either add X energy to your magi, or remove X energy from an opposing creature.
Effect - Close the Book: At the end of each of your turns, put a page counter on Guilloch. If Guilloch has six or more page counters on it, discard it from play.

Think of it this way: Somewhere, another tale is beginning.


TASK: Pair two Magi together as a couple. One Magi must have something to do with the core.
RESULT: I very much liked Yayek, and was very distraught that he never got a card. As such...

Yayek
Weave Shadow Magi
13/5
STARTING: Shyrque, Terrorize, Ebony Mirror
Effect - Abandon: At the end of your Draw Cards step, you may discard any number of cards from your hand. If you do, add one energy to Yayek for each card discarded.
Power - Beckon: (2) Place any one Shyrque in your Discard Pile into play. You may use this power during your opponents Play Creatures step.
Effect: At the beginning of your turn, if you have any non-Shyrque creatures in play, discard them.

"Come my pretty," he smiled at her, "I'll show you what shadows should be draped on those horns."


The Blonde
Weave Shadow Magi - Alternate Marella
11/6
STARTING: Shyrque, Mind Blank, Stumbling Junjertrug
Effect - Mindless: Opposing cards may not discard cards from The Blonde's hand. You may only draw one card at the end of your turn.
Power - Different Thoughts: (4) Discard your hand, then draw a number of cards equal to the amount previously in your hand.
Effect - Dur: The Blonde may play Junjertrugs, ignoring regional penalties or restrictions.

Heeheeheeheeheeheeheeheeheeheeheeheeheeheeheeheehee...


TASK: The creators of Magi-Nation come up and ask you to design a card. What card would you make?
RESULT: I simply couldn't resist the allure of putting my rp character into the game.

Aria
Cald Shadow Magi
11/5
STARTING: Agram's Staff, Robe of Ages, Wildfire, Zungg
Power - Rock On: Reduce the cost of the next card you play by one, to a minimum of one.
Effect - Spellfire: Once per turn, the first spell or power you use that removes energy removes one additonal energy.
Power - Ultimate Fortissimo: (6): Remove X energy from all opposing creatures, where X is the amount of energy the last card you played would normally cost minus the amount of energy you payed for it.
Effect: Your cards may not alter Aria's energize.

"This is MY festival."


TASK: Create a Universal Spell or Relic.
RESULT:

Waking Up
Universal Spell
3
Attach Waking Up to your magi. When Waking Up is put into play, each player chooses an opposing creature on the field. That creature is returned to its player's hand, discarding all of its energy. As long as Waking Up remains in play, creatures of that name may not be played.

"It seems...the dream is finally ending."


TASK: Create a character for this one dude's fanfic.
RESULT: I was on a total whyrl bend at the time, and one of her arts inspired me to this.

Yukiko
Nar Shadow Magi - The Sleeper
12/6
STARTING: Darkbreed's Minion, Crushing Ice
Effect - Beautiful Dreamer: Whenever one of your creatures is discarded from play or defeated in an attack, summon it again, paying all costs. If Yukiko does not have enough energy to summon the creature again, the creature gets all energy on Yukiko instead of it's normal energy.
Effect - Guardians: Opposing cards may not remove energy from Yukiko as long as she has a dream creature in play.


TASK: Introduce a mechanic to a region that does not use that mechanic.
RESULT: I like card control. I like Core. It was a quick meld between the two. Unfortunately, I neglected how incredily unbalanced his second Power was.

Rishiid
d'Resh Shadow Magi
Pic: A blind dood in a black cloak. He's got fabric wrapped around his eyes, sorta like Agram.
16/5
STARTING: Black Agovo, Dream Rift
Power - Black Prophecy: (X) Look at the top X cards of your deck. Choose one and place it in your hand, discarding the rest.
Power - Anarchist's Dreams: (X) Look at the top X cards of your opponent's deck. Choose one and place it in the opponent's hand, discarding the rest.

"I spy...with my little eye...something that is blue."
"It's a Megathan! Awesome!"
"...Crud."


TASK: Create a card based on Final Fantasy.
RESULT: I like Kuja. And Yuffie. Unfortunately, I ended up creating a way to remove what could be quite a bit of energy from an opposing creature with just three energy with my Yuffie.

Kuja
Arderial Shadow Magi
14/6
STARTING: Darkbreed's Minion, Corrupt, Turn
Power - Mistform: (X+2) If you have a relic in play, search your deck for a creature and put it into play. X is that creature's starting energy.
Power - The Invincible: (7) Take control of any one opposing creature with energy of 8 or greater.
Effect - The Dark Messenger: When Kuja is defeated, you may instead choose to defeat your next magi. If you do, return Kuja to his starting energy and increase his energize by 2 permanently.
Kuja may not be the last magi in your magi stack.

"The weak lose their freedom to the strong. Such is the way of the strong. And it is the providence of nature that only the strong survive."

Yuffie
Paradwyn Magi
13/5
STARTING: Bagala, Bagala Pup, Bagala Fang
Power - Steal: (X) Take control of any relic for the next X turns. If that relic would be discarded, instead give it to the opposing player. After X turns have passed, return it to it's owner's hand.
Power - Throw: (3) Give control of any one relic you control to your opponent. Remove energy from one of the opponent's cards equal to the relic's cost plus the total cost of any powers on it plus 3.

"Now all I have to do is... a little this and a little that... nyuk, nyuk, nyuk..."


TASK: Name your card after a song. Include the song's lyrics in your FT. Make the text relevant.
RESULT: I had another entry before I changed it at the last minute. I ended up winning, so...

Ride the Lightning
Arderial/Cald Spell
4
Remove 3 energy from any one opposing creature, and add three energy to any one creature.
Non-Arderial, non-Cald magi pay one additional energy to play this spell.

Flash before my eyes
Now it's time to die
Burning in my brain
I can feel the flames


TASK: Card must reference Ergar. Card may not be a magi.
RESULT:

Ergar's Shadow
Core Dream Creature
0
When you play Ergar's Shadow, add X to it, where X is the cost of the most expensive power on one of your opponent's creatures.
Power - Darkflame: (X) Choose an opposing creature. Remove X energy from it, where X is the cost of that card's most expensive power.
Effect - Cursed Shade: Ergar's Shadow may not attack. Remove one energy from Ergar's Shadow whenever your magi energizes.
Cald magi may play Ergar's Shadow without regional penalty or restriction.

"And the Ergar comes in the NIIIIGHT!"
-Lanyx


TASK: Create a card having something to do with water. The words Nar or Orothe may NOT appear on the card.
RESULT: I wasn't happy with this entry. That's about all I can say.

Hydrophobia
Core Spell
5
Hydrophobia costs three less to play if the opponent has less then ten cards in his or her deck.
Divide your opponent's deck into two piles. Your opponent then chooses one of them. Discard the chosen pile. The other pile becomes the opponent's deck.

"In the water, no one can hear you scream. ...Well, they can, but it's really muffled."
-Qwade


TASK: Make an Orothe card with a German name.
RESULT: I probably went a little overboard with the German on this one.

Gezeiten Welle
Orothe Magi
12/4
STARTING: Tidal Wave, Deep Barl, Undertow
Effect - Die Meere Sind Tief: Whenever you play an Orothe spell, that spell costs two less energy to play, to a minimum of 1.
Effect - So Gehen Sie Nicht Zu Schwimmen: Whenever you play an Orothe creature with the word "Deep" in it's name, add two energy to that creature.

"Es gibt keinen Leibwächter im Ozean."


TASK: Create a Magi that is NOT Core but can somehow play Core cards.
RESULT: Since the guy that was judging this contest disappeared, I had to judge it, which meant I disqualified myself. I'd have felt guilty saying I won. razz

Auritz
Arderial Magi - Loreseeker
14/6
STARTING: Shockwave, Ayebaw, any one Core spell
Power - Dabble: (X+2) Play a Core spell from your hand. X is that spell’s cost.
Effect - Nightshadowed: If you used Dabble this turn, at the end of your turn, roll a die. If you roll a 1 or a 2, show your hand to your opponent. They choose a card and discard it.
Auritz may not be in a magi stack with Core magi.

Brave magi can attempt to use the dark magic of the Core, but even the strong can feel the tug of the darkness during the night.


TASK: Create a Cald magi.
RESULT:

Blitzeron
Cald Magi
14/5
STARTING: Braggle, Ergar
Power - Workout: (3) Remove two energy from one of your creatures. That creature gains the text "ENERGIZE: (1)".
Effect - "Wussy!": Your cards may not add energy to your creatures.

"Come on you ladies, feel the burn!"


TASK: Choose a Magi and age him 75 years.
RESULT: No one got the flavor text. It's a Dork Tower reference. *was sad*

Morag the Senile
Really Old Core Magi
11/6
STARTING: Any creature with a starting energy of 2 or less
Effect - Really Old: All creatures with a starting energy of 4 or more cost two additional energy to play.
Effect - Funny Smell: Control of Morag the Senile's relics may not shift to another player.

"We're still evil too, you know! We're still evil too!"
"Of course we are. Now then, when we get home, we'll have a nice cup of evil cocoa."


TASK: I don't remember. But I won.
RESULT:

Mik’kel
Arderial Shadow Magi - Shadowkeeper

Power - Denial: (4) Name a card. The named card may not be played until the end of your next turn.
Effect - Erratic: Cards may not alter Mik’kel’s energize.

Mind shattering, field levelled
Darkness thickening, secrets withheld

OR

“You won’t need that where you’re going...”



OTHER CARDS THAT I MADE THAT I FOUND:

Paj'Nazg
Core Magi
12/4
STARTING: Shyrque, Wudge, Dream Rift OR Turn, Corrupt, Gorath
When you reveal Paj'Nazg, choose one of the following effects: "Effect - Overwhelm: When you play a creature with 2 or less energy, you may search through your deck for a creature with a starting energy of two or less energy and put that creature into play with it's starting energy." or "Effect - Treacherous: Whenever you gain control of a creature, you may put a Core card from your discard pile from your hand." or "Effect - Unfocused: Paj'Nazg's energize is increased by three." Paj'Nazg has that effect.

"No matter what they bring, I will be prepared."


Rage
Cald Spell
3
Choose a creature and attach Rage to that creature. That creature must attack every turn if able to. When that creature attacks, add X+1 energy to it before energy is removed, where X is the number of times that creature has attacked with Rage attached to it.
Cald Shadow Magi may play Rage.

"Don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry."


Divided
Bograth Spell
5
Play Divided when one of your Bograth creatures is attacked. Negate that attack, but discard the creature. Search your deck for two creatures with starting energy equal to half that creatures energy, rounded down. Put those creatures into play with their starting energy.
You may only play Divided on your opponent's turn.

"You can kill him, but two more will take his place!"
-Emlob, Excessive Detailor

Another Magi, same type as my previous one sweatdrop

Effect- Adept
Meta may play Core cards ignoring regional penalties and restrictions

Roll two dice. Add that much energy minus one to any number of creatures divided as you choose

Thoughts?

[ Message temporarily off-line ]

Haha, whoops. Forgot to update Counterspell. sweatdrop I did fix his energize, too. It used to be a 6. Also changed the flavour text to be a bit more amusing. I need to better establish his place in the storyline.

Ahhh, I see why you did it to Alia now. Not too often you see something like that.
