NAME: Kinesis ELEMENT: Other COST: 7 TYPE: Spell ATK|HP: TEXT: Sacrifice a pillar or pendulum to generate 3 Divine Pillars or Pendulums depending on the sacrifice.	NAME: Kinesis ELEMENT: Other COST: 5 TYPE: Spell ATK|HP: TEXT: Sacrifice a pillar or pendulum to generate 3 Divine Pillars or Pendulums depending on the sacrifice.

ART: Zblader IDEA: Zblader NOTES: The art is actually what inspired this card - I was messing around with some art I had and eventually started to think about the Divine series that Bloodshadow was planning to start. The rest of the card developed from there. This is a Divine spell, which summons a Divine creature or permanent. The summoned creature/permanent is in the same thread. If a pillar is sacrificed you get 3 Divine Pillars. If a pendulum is sacrificed you get 3 Divine Pendulums. As for the mechanic of the Pillars and Pendulums it was inspired from a previous discussion on Hyroen's Void and Divine thread about how Divine Quantum was "Converted" from normal quantum. Inspired by Bloodshadow's Divine series. SERIES:

NAME: Divine Pillar ELEMENT: Other COST: ∞ TYPE: Permanent - Pillar ATK|HP: TEXT: Converts 2 random quantum to 1 quantum of your Mark each turn.	NAME: Divine Tower ELEMENT: Other COST: ∞ TYPE: Permanent - Pillar ATK|HP: TEXT: Converts 2 random quantum to 1 quantum of your Mark each turn. Convert 2 : 1 when played.

ART: oquintero99 (http://mi9.com/abstract-red-dragon_1243.html) IDEA: Zblader NOTES: This is a Divine card. All Divine creatures and permanents have ∞ (infinite) costs, and cannot be played from your hand directly. You can only indirectly play Divine creatures and permanents by casting Divine spells. Divine creatures and permanents are not standalone. I know that computer programs cannot handle the value "∞", so instead of infinity maybe the cost of this card is actually a very large number. Despite the fact it can only be summoned though Kinesis, it's still a Pillar - thus it stacks and is vulnerable to EQ. If there is no quanta to convert then no quantum is produced. SERIES:

NAME: Divine Pendulum ELEMENT: Other COST: ∞ TYPE: Permanent - Pendulum ATK|HP: TEXT: Alternates between generating 1 quantum of your Mark and converting 2 quantum to 1 of your mark.	NAME: Divine Pendulum ELEMENT: Other COST: ∞ TYPE: Permanent - Pendulum ATK|HP: TEXT: Alternates between generating 1 quantum of your Mark and converting quantum 2:1. Convert 2:1 when played.

Uhh... Why would I want to convert 3 quanta into one quanta of my mark, when I can just generate quanta of my mark using normal pillars? You're ultimately using a 2 card combo (quantum pillar and divine pillar) to generate 1 quanta.

Aside from a Discord/Black Hole counter, this is simply too much.

[Rutarete]

I like it. Can be handy in situations, but if the tactic fails you're a goner. Also a big Fractal promoter

Idk, seems kinda useless, a regular pillar is better then the pendulum, and the Divine Pillars will only generate if you have quanta, which you won't because you sacrificed the pillar/pendulum. I don't see any use for this, unless somehow you can convince your opponent to steal it.

I was originally going to have the unupped convert 2:1 and the upgraded automatically convert 2:1 when played, but I was afraid of that being OP. I guess I consider strengthening the effect.

EDIT: Yeah, feedback demands buffing. Will change soon.

Actaully, the effect seems useless at first.
But on the contrary this provides an amazing counter to discord.
Personally I almost always run mono or duo decks and I pretty much have to quit the second a discord gets thrown out.

I quite like this.

Im thinking that it NOT sacrificing a pillar may be an even better way to go.  Merely instead generating a new pillar.

[Bloodshadow]

I'm sorry, Z, but I have my own idea for Divine Pillar. So unfortunately I will not include this card in my Divine series.

Divine represents divine entities in this world, so they require a sacrifice of some sort (See Bloodshadow's Apothesis card for a good example of this.)

It may be a great BH/Discord counter but otherwise it's too situational when compared to other pillars. I'm lowering the conversion rate to 2:1 for the unupped and convert when played for upgraded.

...  Fine with me.
Did you have an idea for the Pendula by any chance?

[AnonymousRevival]

I don't quite understand the mechanics of the Divine Pendulum. I'm kind of confused. perhaps you might want to improve on that by making the language simpler?

Argh, just when I had updated the images too. >.>

Basically, a Divine Pendulum works like a Pendula works vs. a normal Pillar -
Turn 1
It converts 2 random quantum to 1 quantum of your mark.
Turn 2
It generates 1 quantum of your mark.
Turn 3
It converts 2 random quantum to 1 quantum of your mark.

As for the text, I'm not exactly sure how to simplify it, sorry about that.

[AnonymousRevival]

I'm not sure if this fits in the card text but:

For every alternate turn, the Divine Pendulum would alternate 2 random quanta to 1 quantum of your mark and generating one quantum of your mark.

oh, to squeeze it a bit, make all numbers their arabic form (yeah, the one should actually be 1). Sorry, I couldn't edit BTW.
