This card is intended for SG's competition, but I wanted to get other people's opinions before I make it final. I don't have time to try to figure out how to use an image editing program as I'm in school. So I'll post my suggestion and hopefully someone will be kind enough to create it for me.

Card: Wisp
-Death element creature
-0/8
-Ability: Confusion: Target creature has 33% chance to attack opponent, the owner, or no attack at all. This effect last for two turns. (You can tinker with the wording, it's past 12 here so I'm too tired to fine tune it.) Costs two death quanta.
-The upgraded version has an improved ability: Confound: Same effect/cost, last for three turns.

I found a possible picture, but if whoever chooses to make this for me wants to use a different one, feel free. The picture doesn't matter anyway. Like I said, it's late, so I just picked something from the front page of google images... if you can find something like a "bog wisp," that would probably be better... they are orbic in shape and are found in bogs/swamps :-p



Anyway, the creature is supposed to be hard to kill since it has no attack (I was going to make it a 0/1 immaterial creature, but then realized there would be almost no counter, and you could easily semi-cancel out up to 18 creatures). Now I'm going to bed... hopefully there will be a few responses the next time I check back...

I just took a guess at the creature and ability cost as you didn't include it.

I see the ability "confusion" and this randomness more as Entropy, not Death.

Maybe. I see it more as a Dark card, to follow suit with Dusk Mantle's 50% attack ability.

Darkness is for cheating, dirty tricks, stealing, veils, charms.
Entropy is for randomness, chaotic behavior.

So, if it is a consistent 'change of heart' effect, i would say 'darkness'.
But confusion is more like in the portfolio of entropy.

I see where you are going with that. The ability name could be anything, but it's effect is only slightly more random than Dusk Mantle, and somewhat on par with Fog Shield. I don't think it has a random enough effect.

All in all, definitely doesn't really fit well as a Death card.

Hmm, make it a darkness card with an entropy activation cost then?

Well wisps are ghostly, so I figured I'd make it death. I guess making the ability require dark quanta is better though... but I don't see it as an entropy ability, as entropy is about change... other than that though, I'd say it's good as is... Kamietsu, if you could edit the image and repost it, I'd appreciate it.

To make the ability cost dark quanta instead of death? Sure, no problem at all.
