Emptiness is the polar opposite of Solidity, and so their primary stat is the "Water" icon. I really only made it look like water because it's the opposite of Fire. Really, the Water icon stands for resolve and internal strength. While Devotees of the Emptiness are peaceful and do not generally convert through force, they are able to withstand attacks against them in that way, making them a tough nut to crack when Solidity comes calling. Think of them in an Inquisition setting as the victim who refuses to convert no matter how badly they are tortured.
The cards generally depict noble, strong-willed but physically weak adherents.
You can think of Steadfast Clan as Native American tribes who don't want trouble, but want to protect their home. Walkers can be thought of as displaced Native Americans, searching for a new home.
Nightcaps was originally meant to look kind of like the fungus, but once I found that picture, I knew I had to use it.
Finally, I considered using a picture of starving people for the card Starving, but I figured that might be a little over-the-top to use such imagery in a card game. If I get real artwork, a created image of starving people might not seem too offensive.
Also notice that Starving has green text. Previously, red text indicated something to pay attention to while Crusading, and that all players needed to keep in mind. With green text, the player who has the card must pay attention to it during the Refill phase.
