Development Log: The Vortex #20 - More Solidity

Here are the next eight cards created for Solidity.  You can see another theme coming from this set: Solidity is the sect of the rulers of this universe.


Solidity is the religion of the King, and therefore controls things like Medical Frigates.  Back when I was talking about Locations, Yellow had the advantage in Capitalia.  You can see here that Solidity dominates the powers that be, and has its own power structure to boot (Bishop of Hatred represents that).

The consequence of Fevers is to suggest that when a Fever breaks, people come back to their senses.

Thunderheads is in red text, again to make sure that you pay attention to it, because it effects everything in play.

No offense intended to Catholicism, but the picture of Pope Palpatine there was pretty much what I was thinking of with that.

With The Collector, I think of it a little more like a collector of souls, which makes the special text make more sense.

The idea behind Medical Frigate is that if they kill you, they will save you and bring you back to life, and the resurrected card would then become a True Convert.

Devotees will not target King because they fear and respect him too much, but might be targeted by Zealots, because Zealots are crazy.

That's pretty much all of those cards.  Next log will be the last of Solidity.
