Relics and Villains (WBC Week 21)

Card image cap

I had an idea for something that I won't talk about just yet, and used my Story Engine decks to help craft some things for it. These are just little idea snippets.

Relic Ideas

Overlooked + Statue + Tusk + Used in making a tool or musical instrument + Sluggish

An easily overlooked statuette of a popular deity that was carved out of an animal's tusk that is normally a popular material for flutes and pipes. When the wind blows through the statuette, an enchanted lullaby plays, making people within listening vicinity sluggish and prone to narcolepsy.


Noble + Mage

A Bag + Fur + Camouflaging Properties

Circlet + Jewel + Glowing

A bag made out of fur from a creature with camouflaging properties. While the bag itself is remarkable, what is special is the circlet inside, which was once owned by a mage with a title of nobility. It features a jewel that glows softly, though the enchantment upon it would require specialized study to understand.


Villain Ideas

An Idol + (Agenda) Heist an Object + Bearers of a Religious Object

Sword + Ephemeral

Javelin + Poisonous

A member of a cult has gained a large following of worshippers. The fighters of the group use javelins that they claim to be blessed by their leader to curse any non-believer it touches, but the truth is that they are coated in a toxic and rare poison. The cult leader's agenda is to commit a heist to steal a legendary ephemeral sword from a safeguarded location.


A Ghoul + Scholar + Seemingly Endless Energy + Caused the destruction of a location

Wasteland + Keep + Famous of its unusual hue of soil or stone + Polluted

(Agenda) Capture a god-beast + Radiates an aura + Pleasant

A scholar in pursuit of unlocking endless energy caused the destruction of a region that is now a wasteland. The scholar, now a ghoul, has been building an undead army in a keep located in the center of the polluted wasteland. Their goal is to capture a god-beast that emits a healing aura.

I had fun crossing the decks together and will do more of these. But what these are for, well, you'll find out, if I decide to go all the way with it. :D
