One more question : can one of our things have *two*passive abilities of our invention?
Yes but be careful. 2 new passives sounds like an overly complex card design. Double check to see if both are justified as passives.

Can I submit more than 3 cards if they are all examples of the same passive?

No. You should only submit the best example (1 card) of a passive ability per passive ability.

What if I have an idea for a passive ability, which would affect a whole group of cards? I'm planning cards around this ability, so it would be useful.
I guess I should post the card ideas, which are based around the ability, however does not involve the ability directly. (Wings is based around airborne, but the card itself is not)
What should I post? I'd post already if I was ready :)

All that's needed is one example of the passive ability you want to demonstrate. Go ahead and post the other ideas, but only the one with the actual ability goes here, not ones affected by it.

Permanents

Active:Destroy, Sniper, Tsunami, Lobotomize, Hasten, Catapult, Ignite, Duality

Innate:Momentum, Scramble, Fiery, Regenerate, Immaterial, Vampire, Unholy, Edissipation (typo??), Bow, Empathy, Weight, Bones, Reflect, Hammer, Dagger, Boneyard, Sanctuary, Spines, Firewall, Ice, Hope, Flood, Fog, Cloack, Delay, Stasis (not sure... Sundial, it's here I think), Nightfall, Phaseshield, Solar, Dusk

Perpetual:Airborne (Animated Weapons), Ranged

I put here all the Abilities of permanents. Clearly the number of Innate is huge, mostly due to the Shields and Weapons. More Perpetual abilities for Permanents I say :)
You forgot:
Perpetual: entropy, death, gravity, earth, life, water, fire, light, air, time, darkness, aether, ?random, ?pendulum

Oh okay... Well I know this ability had been mentioned before. But I think it is great and should really be used. What I'm talking about is
AQUATIC.

It is simple and could be well utilized. Airborne is already in the game, and it is unique to a limited amount of creatures. Aquatic would work in the same way. New cards should be designed around it, so elements (such as fire) could also have some creatures with this ability. Of course the base element for this ability would be water.

I think most of the dragons could have this ability, just to make it more balanced among elements.

Card Ideas:
-Similar shield as Wings, but with only allowing Aquatic creatures and maybe some ability for weapons similar to Ranged?
-Bonding between aquatic creatures. Like schools of fish reinforce each other and are stronger together. Gain +X | +X, permanent. Bit similar to Nightfall, but would depend on the number of creatures in play.
-Spells giving more bonus to Aquatic creatures, Aquatic creatures would also survive flooding. (Spell idea: All aquatic creatures gain momentum, drains all quanta)

I know it's a simple idea, but simple can be better often. We could come up with fancy new passive abilities, but I think an ability, which can affect more creatures is better.
Comments?
