    Edit- I decided make a full cycle of monocolor legends based off people I know, and the humanoid creatures and classes of the Final Fantasy tactics games. Like any good game, you need an adventure party. I included more info on the cards pages.

    An update to the prizes, to make it more likely the playmat is given out...
    ---

    For each cardsmith that enters a card for themselves and another person/cardsmith, myself will reduce the amount of people required to enter for each prize tier by 1.

    By the way, will also add a counter on the main post that myself will update as participation occurs. So we know how far we've reached.

    Backstory behind the quote: A young teen dies alone and wishes to live. Is then offered to be reincarnated in another form. But doesn't realize how others would look at that form. In turn she is treated as a monster, even though she isn't that scary.

  • This one was a bit of a lazy entry, since we all know @Corwinnn is a squirrel. But a two-headed squirrel?

    More to come!

    @TenebrisNemo Maybe each N is a head?


    I have like 80 cards that are my avatar who are angels.
  • @KorandAngels
    Must be a new card though. Sorry!
  • I know. I don't plan on entering unless something comes up.

    I've posted some of my own thoughts on this card as a comment, so if any of you have the inclination to do so for some reason, they're there. In terms of my choice of name for the card, I occasionally use Jacalt as a username, as well as TheWanderer, so I combined the two.

    Hey @murkletins I like this idea. Will definitely drop some more cards. Also just for clarity, how long ago constitutes old.

    Deleted comment. Thought this art was allowed in the past, so that's my fault.

    Didn't notice before, but your cards can't be entered since they are Human. Sorry, but that's the one main rule of this challenge.

    Changing the tally back to beforehand. (6+/10 as of now!)

    @Revan, I've always been a big Star Wars fan, especially the canon lore. I always think Darth Revan when I see your name.

    This one is based off of myself, I won't get into details, but enjoy...

    @spookoops That's why my name is what it is. Revan is my absolute favorite Sith Lord.

    I prefer Legends Lore myself.
  • @murkletins I know there's no card limit, but if I'm flooding the contest with too many cards, you can tell me to stop.
  • @Revan
    You're fine doing so. Myself take it as you enjoy the challenge.
  • @murkletins You would take correctly. Myself am enjoy challenge. Much yes. ^_^
