would be interesting. It would most likely be something that isn't quite a mutation... Reconstruction? It would be nice to see a new healing creature.

@penguin3921 thanks

@Nepycros what do you mean reconstruction? like a healing creature then?  I haven't made the one yet, so we'll see.

Did you do the same process to edit the element symbols on each one? If so, how did you do it?

[Ajit]

Most of them I worked the same way; opened up the files provided here (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,5998.24.html), made them into brushes, and then used them on the work, usually adding a soft white brush behind it to make it glow.

A couple of them vary on how they were done, namely the Gravity card and to some degree the Aether card.

Instead of moon stone, for darkness, make it Onyx.

[Ajit]

I think Moonstone works fine, alluding to moonlight.  Onyx would be nice, but any month that onyx could potentially represent has already been accounted for (according to Wikipedia; July is a potential for Onyx, but almost always Ruby, and December is sometimes Onyx, but Turquoise is the more common, accepted stone for that month)

How about black pearl for darkness? Pearl is the birthstone of June anyway, so black pearl seems like a reasonably good fit.

[Ajit]

Right I was considering a black pearl, but some issues i faced;

- the pearls are more commonly pink and white, rarely black
- if i made it pearl, I wondered whether or not I should include the word black in it
- Pearl Stone and Pearl Gem sound kind of weird

Anyways, may I ask what the desire to get rid of moonstone originates from?  Something wrong here?  Seems to fit thematically excellently with cards in the darkness deck like Eclipse and Moonlight.

To be honest, I'm just trying to make it as close to the birthstones as possible.

Thanks QuantumT, your help is appreciated

*sniff* I-I've never seen such beautiful cards *sniff*
For Sapphire:
I was thinking something along the lines of, "Frozen creatures gain +1 | +1 per turn. Sea Salt: Defrost (unfreeze) a creature."
