ART: Ajit, original photo by Marcus Ranum (http://mjranum-stock.deviantart.com/art/Lucy-Remixed-13-92549323) allowed to use IDEA: Ajit NOTES: - Most passive skills when removed have the simplest resolution.  A Chimera who loses its passive "chimera" skill does nothing.  Losing Swarm just leaves that creature's HP at what it was at the time, etc. - If a creature has any status and can be targeted, it will be affected.  That includes momentum, adrenaline, poison, frozen, delayed, and gravity pull I've kind of got a bad feeling about this one.. that it is broken or something...

Um. Please do not remove Passive Ability's permanence.
The permanence of a passive ability is a great tool for Card Design.
If I want to have a debuff (like Absorb ) that ability would be coded as a passive ability.

Well you have to spend quanta to remove the debuff such as absorb

Just like you have to spend quanta to buff a creature.

What's so different? I mean if it is OP'd ability price can be adjusted can't it.

Either way, if something is terribly wrong, I could switch it to "target receives 1 damage and removes any status effects"

Wait, does it absorb  from you each turn? If so, how many  per turn?

1 as indicated on the card.

It is more that passive abilities are the last refuge for a designer to place irremovable characteristics on cards.
Usually irremovable characteristics can nerf an otherwise Broken card back to being on par.

How about this:

Smite: Lobotomize all your light-generating creatures. Do 1 damage to the enemy for each skill removed.

Possible.. but I feel its UP, and a little narrow as far as potential strategies.

I had originally thought of 2 damage but thought I'd rather want it UP than OP. c:

Right (:

Perhaps in a different direction;
"target receives 1 damage and removes any status effects"

could be used to remove negative status from your own creatures at the sacrifice of some health, or could be some weak CC.

I like the above suggested ability, it's a good counter to Arenaline, Gravity Force, and Momentum that way.

I find that this card's stats are a bit too high for its cost..
