Neutral cards (Colorless) (includes Statuses & Curses)

Card Types

  • Attack - Usually deal direct damage to one or more enemies, with some adding a secondary effect.
  • Skill - All sorts of temporary and strategic effects are in this card type. Commonly grant Block or other temporary buffs to the player or debuffs to one or more enemies.
  • Power - A permanent upgrade for the entire combat encounter. Some Powers give flat stats like Strength or Dexterity. Others require certain conditions to be met or add beneficial effects whenever a certain event occurs in battle. Once played, the Power card is removed for that combat.
  • Status - Unplayable cards added to the deck during combat encounters. They are designed to bloat the deck and prevent the player from drawing beneficial cards, with some of them having additional negative effects. Unlike Curses, Status cards are removed from the deck at the end of combat.
  • Curse - Unplayable cards added to the deck during in-game events. Similar to status cards they are designed to bloat the deck and prevent the player from drawing beneficial cards, with some of them having additional negative effects during combat. Unlike Statuses, Curse cards persist in the players' deck until removed by other means.
