YAY!
I like that! It's literally the aether cycle!
If you want to you can try and impress me (Yes a challenge before it starts!) you can make a card that goes with lore or just with your Warden. (This might count for a point if I see one I really like.)
Bowler just claimed it but starting next season of this if all planes have been claimed but one after a certain amount of time I will let people make a second warden.

Your time as Wardens starts now!
Your optional challenge is to make a signature card. You must do this by November 30 and any I think are overly amazing will gain a Reputation Point.
Reputation Points: These are the points that you gain from challenges, they are based on the idea that the better of a warden you are the more popular you are to the plane's inhabitants. At the end of elimination challenges up to two people will be eliminated based on the number of Reputation points, the one with the highest will also sometimes get a bonus.
Challenges: Challenges will be given between an hour to a day after the previous challenges have been judged. Challenge cycles last from 5 days to 7 days but if everyone has completed their challenge before the end of the week judging will start early.
While the challenges are going on, story posts for each will be posted.
With that all said lets hand out the first cycle of challenges.
Cyucrales-Theros: The challenge for you is to make a permanent that either counters a spell or keeps things from leaving the graveyard.
Thalia-Innistrad: Your challenge is to create a legendary instant, sorcery or enchantment that represents angels working with the inhabitants of the plane to get rid of all the Eldrazi.
Alinseri-Lorwyn: Your challenge is to create a creature, the creature has to be artificial but has to use colored mana. This creature has to be capable of tapping opponent creatures.
Jezekei-Zendikar: Your challenge is to create a land boardwipe. The boardwipe must have a negative effect and whoever casts it too.
Akila-Fiora: You must make a card that causes you to look at cards in opponents libraries or hands. Make it based on some kind of surveillance system.
Alissa-Mirrodin: Make an equipment that destroys artifact creatures. It has to also cause someone to discard a card.
Dangis-Tarkir: Create a instant or sorcery that flips into a Legendary Creature.
Khenset-Amonkhet: Create a desert card that can be returned from the graveyard by one of it's abilitites
Okar-Kaladesh: Make a card that has both Fabricate and Populate. (I like this because it can show Kaladesh's theme of both artificial life and real living things.)
Thelia-Ixalan: Create an enchantment or artifact that makes players not want to attack other people, give it a huge negative effect for those who do. Make it work like a peace treaty.
The top 5 cards will be awarded with a Reputation point. This isn't an elimination challenge. Cards are due by December 4th.
(Depending on how the whole story for each plane pans out the next season of this will be called either Planar Chaos or Return of the Wardens. Just keep that in mind if you want any impact on whether the story ends good or bad.)
Secondly, @pjbear2005, for the optional challenge, how does the signature differ from the lore challenge presented earlier?
Nope they are one in the same, it's just a choice whether your signature pertains to lore or just your character.
Does a "land boardwipe" destroy all lands or is it just a land that can boardwipe?
(I will be happy to explain to anyone who doesn't get the Theros/Greek mythology reference what the reference is.)
Challenge: Either? How about both?
For the challenge of course, next time I will try to avoid going WUBRG.
Anything that includes both A boardwipe and some way to incorporate lands works.

Many Setessans have followed one of their civilians after she had a vision. This vision caused a great uproar that brought them to a worshipper of Erebos. The cleric, draining and corrupting the Setessans for power opened a gateway to the underworld which brought forth undead soldiers, gave him control over the Setessans and brought an evil Elspeth back.
Cyucrales had to find a way to stop the undead before they got too strong.
Using his monstrous for he was able to gain the trust of a legendary type of snake known as a Guardian of the Fallen. After gaining it's trust he was able to get it to curl
around the breach and stop the surge of undead.
Now it was time to plan a counterattack against them.
