Coolness!

All Race Cards are Story Swaps. You can find out more about Swap Types here: http://www.untoldthegame.com/primer/creating-character

Also, we'd use your art as concept art and get new art for the actual card, if we create these guys. ;)

Yeah...

Scientists theorize that the creature known as "Ashy" does not actually sleep. That instead, he somehow has solar converters that allow him to absorb energy through sunlight and allows him to continue functioning throughout the night. However, there is the possible side effect of insanity...

As a suggestion to the flavor text, how about: "Shall we play a game?" or "Never tempt Fate"

I like it! but howzy bout.

I like it! but howzy bout. "There are times when you have to temp fate!" ? or "those that try to pluck the cords of fate often only tangle them."

I've been thinking about a whole string of power cards that focus primarily on luck and chance and always cause some sort of chaos. I think it may be fun to play a bit of a gambler character. Feel free to take the idea and run with it if you like it.

Combine with MHM's "Oops" deck

Hall asked:

If you combine it with ManyHattedMan's "Oops" deck idea (http://www.untoldthegame.com/forum/yes-concept), I think it would be great!

Hmmm....

The ONLY thing I don't like about it is that it requires other die. Untold advertises that the only die you need is a d20...

Multiple dice

True, I like the simplicity of all d20 mechanics myself. However, if you bring your own cards and this is one of them, then you'd probably be sure to bring your dice, right? ;)

Yes but...

Untold advertises that the ONLY die needed is a d20. While its an interesting card, I would modify it to fit a d20 mechanic, if nothing else, than to keep it true to the game's original design.

Guessing at MAG to UP conversion rate

I've kinda been trying to estimate how much UP abilities of different MAG would cost. I like changing levels to include more of the d20 as the level increased, but this is the math on the d20 rolls:

Counting 1-5 and ignoring everything above that: average value is 0.75
Counting 1-10 and ignoring everything above that: average value is 2.75
Counting 1-15 and ignoring everything above that: average value is 6.00
Counting 1-20: average value is 10.50

Those are the results you could expect to add to MAG randomly.

EDIT: Rereading I realize you're talking about to hit rolls (I'm tired too). Call it "Unerring Accuracy" maybe. But this would work for damage too.

Don't worry about UP cost

From this point forward - please do not worry about providing UP cost - and I've removed it from Ashy's post. As the WM, we will have to decide this based upon the system we have built for Untold.

We love your submissions - keep them coming! Let us worry about what things cost!

Thanks!

Thank you, Nathan!

Thank you. I love thinking about card concepts but I always worry, "Is this too cheap to be game-breaking? Or is it too expensive that nobody would ever play it?"
