We will look at every card made and the ones we like will earn a spot in the set. Each card selected will be given credit to the original cardsmith. If you add a link to your art source we can often use the same art, but if you cannot, that's alright too! In some cases we may change the art or functionality of the card to better fit inside the vision of the Athera Set.

Below is the lore of the Adventurers faction as well as a card count and card list. Please take a look and help us fill out this set!
ADVENTURERS - White/Green
The adventurers work outside Druaga. They exist in white and green and are composed of Humans, Elves, Scouts, and Warriors. They're a less disciplined bunch than the cityfolk, living as nomads who explore and defend Athera's less civilized regions. Some also climb the tower, in search of knowledge and wealth.
Their mechanic is Exploration [Cost], which reads "{t}, [Cost]: Reveal the top card of your library. If it's a land, put a +1/+1 counter on this creature."

As soon as I saw the exploration mechanic, I instantly thought of Ainok Guide. So I thought a functional reprint with more Atheran flavor would almost be an auto-include:

It can be made uncommon by adding 1 cmc.

Town Market
Shady Deal
These 2 are part of a 20-card cycle (the 20th being River of Tears, the only real one)
Scrubroot Plains
Solgrove Stream
I'm also thinking of making some "Explore me please"-type lands. Example:
Deepwood Trail
Thoughts?
