Story
Spoiler for Hidden:
He looked down upon the city he loved. Everywhere he saw death. It was the result of a plague unlike even he had seen before. He leaped from the temple roof, landing squarely on a building just across the street. What had happened? How could Athens, the strongest city of the empire have been struck like this? From the gloom below he heard a sudden cry. A cry of desperation, one praying for mercy. He tuned his senses, listening to the conversation happening below.
"Be strong, Korinna. Please do not suffer."
The speaker turned her head to the heavens in prayer.
"O merciful angel. Please take her. She has suffered enough."
Thanatos snorted from up on the roof. He was no angel. He stepped off of the building, gliding towards the ground. Invisible to mortal eyes, he hovered above the dying girl. He watched as her spirit exited her body. It looked around, confused, but when it saw him it seemed to understand.
"I'm here for you," Thanatos said. "Follow me."
She did, and they entered Hades together. Thanatos was just doing his job.

Explanation
Spoiler for Hidden:
Thanatos is the Greek god of death. One of Hades' lieutenants, he is tasked with taking people when their time has come and delivering them to be judged for Elysium, the Fields of Asphodel or Eternal Punishment. I chose him for this entry because to me death represents a great change. To the Greeks death was not the end but rather the beginning of another life. People achieving Elysium could be reborn into another life.  Also, this deck makes use of the Aflatoxin buff by not needing as many towers to support the twelve in the deck. The  image of Thanatos that I used is reminiscent of the Grim Reaper, one of the modern equivalents of Thanatos.

Spoiler for a story:
The Renaissance, known as a time when light spilled out of darkness, brought forth a change in its era. Darkness shrouded the community, but light slowly begin to gain forces and strength behind it. From the heavens came angels while their leaders, their queens, their nymphs watched over. Out from the shroud they came holding darkness in its grasp, using it against its own purpose. Choked with the lights and holiness of the heavens, fierce dragons flew from the sky. Their power was so ever great and impressive. Darkness looked up to see what they helped create. As these massive creatures flew down, they prepared to land, only to finally crush darkness into the ground. Pushed down so hard for so long, it was a miracle what light had done. With surprising forces and strength, light proved itself as an ever greater power.

Spoiler for an explanation:
This deck stands as a war between light and darkness on only one side of the battlefield. The concept in itself is unique in the way that it is as if two battles are going on at the same time. Despite the fact that dolls are not hit by the AI's own Holy Lights [which needs to be changed soon], the deck proves itself a controller of darkness as stated in the story. The angels are the attacking power while light quanta accumulates behind the cloak(s). To make sure the quanta is building without taking too much damage, Hope gives protection with great power from the nymphs, RoLs, and Dolls. If the extra quanta is needed to survive, the miracle ensues ;D

If dolls were used as I wish they were, the archangels could work off the holy flashes with them to create a more powerful deck, but the thematic idea of light choking out darkness still remains. The Renaissance's true meaning, rebirth, is so clearly defined through this deck in the idea that light is overcoming past times when darkness was the greater presence.

The city was destroyed. Battered and pulverised by the ravages of war, the damage was clear and easy to see. Pillars lay reduced to piles of rubble, and entire buildings were gone, reduced to piles of smouldering ash, their exploded remains smoking gently in the early-evening twilight. Somewhere, amidst the fire and the fury, deep down under the wreckage and the rubble, something was stirring.

Some small pockets of life remained in the city. The crusaders however, the knights that had tried so hard to valiantly defend this place were long gone, their code of honour forbidding retreat. The wardens of the town guard were less brave, those that survived the initial onslaught fled to the mines to seek refuge with the gnomes. However, they knew this hiding place was only temporary. All the while, the spirit was awaking. As the spirit drifted into consciousness, fragments of memories popped into her mind one by one. A few people, a face here and there, and a city. Then she remembered a promise she made long, long ago...

The gnomes and the townsfolk had heard stories about the enemy. As they sat around a bonfire for warmth, an inferno made from the remains of their city, they silently remembered the tales. There were prisoners who had come back missing all their limbs, some who had been partially skinned alive, and some who looked uninjured, but did not speak a word. There were so many more who did not come back. The townsfolk knew what was happening, and there was little they could do to avoid it. Some took the easy route out. They jumped into the fire, immolating themselves to avoid a fate worse than death. Their screams were silent but the agony was apparent as their lives were snuffed out.

The spirit was fully awake now. She knew now what had to be done. The next thing she remembered was her power.

Wielding a fiery sword forged from the heavens, she took command of the townsfolk underground. With her spirit and her blessings coursing through their veins, they left their subterranean graveyard to face the enemy. Calling next upon the ascended souls of the deceased she lead a charge of untouchable angels to purge the city of this unwanted presence. And purge it did. The invading army fled, terrified by the unstoppable angelic force.

The city was safe now. The spirit had kept her promise. But what should she do now? She had an unstoppable army at her command; should she use it for good, and usher in a new renaissance of enlightenment and progress, or should she sieze the absolute power that was there for the taking? As she pondered her decision, she remembered one more thing.

Her name. Athena.


Spoiler for Details:
The immolation rush has been around for a long time, but has made no appearance in the false gods, as of yet. So, combining this archetype with an unusual strategy, I used my favourite criminally underused card, Wardens, in combination with blessings and ragepots. Though this may make for a slightly slower deck (at least by FG standards) the extra control and damage makes for an unstoppable mid/late-game force.

Thematically, Athena is the Greek goddess of wisdom, inspiration, just warfare, strength and courage. Who better to lead an army of invincible angels?

The italian Renaissance master Michelangelo is proud to present: THE LAST JUDGMENT



One of the main theme of Renaissance is the repudiation of the decorative elements and return to the simplicity. But to speak of a work fully renaissance, the presence of this only element it's not enough, because the Renaissance was above all a new way of thinking and portray the world. The Last Judgement marked the end of an era and constituted a watershed in the history of art and thought: to the strong and confident man and humanism of the early Renaissance, that Michelangelo himself had excited in the time of the Nudes, he replaces a vision chaotic and distressed investing the damned as the blessed, the total lack of certainty that reflects the drift and the insecurities of the new age.

This deck is inspired by Michelangelo's masterpiece in which the angels announced the end of time. Only those who will prove their value will be allowed into the kingdom of heaven, the others will be damned and banished to hell for eternity...

Taking as starting point the return to simplicity, I've tried to create a deck that was both simple and solid. The 'new' is the Seraph, and the "rediscovery of roots" is given by the light cards. I've tried to avoid a permanent control abuse, that would make this deck unplayable, limiting to 3 (x2) the number of Explosions and after several tests I decided to add just one creature control card.
Seraph skill grants excellent protection against CC, permanents used (except for the towers) are immaterial making useless the use of PC while Hope adds a more than decent defense.

The result is a deck fast, solid and fun to face. The classic anti-FG decks may have little chance against Last Judge, but it's not just that one of the objectives of the Renaissance? The search for new solutions and new visions of the world?

Uranus,An old God,Symbolizes the sky
It is a Air :air rush deck :P



Uranus meaning "sky" or "heaven" was the primal Greek god personifying the sky. His equivalent in Roman mythology was Caelus. In Ancient Greek literature, Uranus or Father Sky was the son and husband of Gaia, Mother Earth. According to Hesiod's Theogony, Uranus was conceived by Gaia alone, but other sources cite Aether as his father. Uranus and Gaia were the parents of the first generation of Titans, and the ancestors of most of the Greek gods, but no cult addressed directly to Uranus survived into Classical times, and Uranus does not appear among the usual themes of Greek painted pottery. Elemental Earth, Sky and Styx might be joined, however, in a solemn invocation in Homeric epic.

Timeline is one of the older gods.
He himself remains immortal, only to fall in battle.
He uses his cards to make certain statements. The most common is that death, just like being born, is inevitable.
Sometimes, he may tell that you can cheat death, but it will come back for you.
He still remains, watching the lives flash by.

*the ???'s are Psions.

Rather than writing a glitzy narrative RP story I'll just give the cliff notes version.  Tesla is based on the real life person Nikola Tesla, who has been romanticized as a tragic figure in the electronic revolution, who's works were allegedly sabotaged through propaganda and other means by Thomas Edison.  The general idea in the RP back story sense is something similar happened here, where Tesla was a brilliant elemental but was hindered by an inferior, but more political, competitor.  After his visions failed to receive acceptance over his competitor in the general public, Tesla sought to prove his source of power was superior, but was again sabotaged by the competitor, this time the destruction of his technology turned Tesla into a being of electricity and warped his mind.  The false god Tesla seeks vengeance over the elementals who had rejected him. /end RP.

So the deck has a strong electricity/lightning theme, the Immortals combined with the Shards of Wisdom produce lightning attacks, while the Psions have the lightning attacks as a base.  Lightning spells need no explanation.  The time element cards are supposed to be symbolic that he was not appreciated in his time, being a tragic figure, and practically speaking it speeds up the deck with the hour glasses, as well as with the precognitions, with pendulums powering their use as to not slow down the bulk of the deck in the process.

Two of the cards included in the deck were inspired by Psion http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,28117.0.html (Psion and Shard of Wisdom), which I had come up with as part of the 13th element project (Mind) http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,25093.0.html .  I bring this up not to gloat, but rather as a means of full disclosure of why I built the deck the way I did.

The midnight make think what? it is very fantastic!
vampire,wolf man,and many things let people crazy :P

A werewolf, also known as a lycanthrope (from the Greek λυκάνθρωπος: λύκος, lukos, "wolf", and ἄνθρωπος, anthrōpos, "man"), is a mythological or folkloric human with the ability to shapeshift into a wolf or an anthropomorphic wolf-like creature, either purposely or after being placed under a curse and/or lycanthropic affliction via a bite or scratch from a werewolf, or some other means. This transformation is often associated with the appearance of the full moon, as popularly noted by the medieval chronicler Gervase of Tilbury, and perhaps in earlier times among the ancient Greeks through the writings of Petronius.
In addition to the natural characteristics inheret of both wolves and humans, werewolves are often attributed supernatural powers of strength and speed far beyond those of both wolves and men. The werewolf is generally held as a European character, although its lore spread through the world in later times. Shape-shifters, similar to werewolves, are common in tales from all over the world, most notably amongst the Native Americans, though most of them involve animal forms other than wolves.
Werewolves are a frequent subject of modern fiction, although fictional werewolves have been attributed traits distinct from those of original folklore. For example, the ideas that werewolves are only vulnerable to silver bullets or that they can cause others to become werewolves by biting or wounding them derive from works of modern fiction. Werewolves continue to endure in modern culture and fiction, with books, films and television shows cementing the werewolf's stance as a dominant figure in horror.
Vampires are mythological or folkloric beings who subsist by feeding on the life essence (generally in the form of blood) of living creatures, regardless of whether they are undead or a living person/being Although vampiric entities have been recorded in many cultures, and may go back to "prehistoric times",the term vampire was not popularized until the early 18th century, after an influx of vampire superstition into Western Europe from areas where vampire legends were frequent, such as the Balkans and Eastern Europe, although local variants were also known by different names, such as vrykolakas in Greece and strigoi in Romania. This increased level of vampire superstition in Europe led to mass hysteria and in some cases resulted in corpses actually being staked and people being accused of vampirism.
While even folkloric vampires of the Balkans and Eastern Europe had a wide range of appearance ranging from nearly human to bloated rotting corpses, it was interpretation of the vampire by the Christian Church and the success of vampire literature, namely John Polidori's 1819 novella The Vampyre that established the archetype of charismatic and sophisticated vampire; it is arguably the most influential vampire work of the early 19th century,inspiring such works as Varney the Vampire and eventually Dracula. The Vampyre was itself based on Lord Byron's unfinished story "Fragment of a Novel", also known as "The Burial: A Fragment", published in 1819.
However, it is Bram Stoker's 1897 novel Dracula that is remembered as the quintessential vampire novel and which provided the basis of modern vampire fiction. Dracula drew on earlier mythologies of werewolves and similar legendary demons and "was to voice the anxieties of an age", and the "fears of late Victorian patriarchy". The success of this book spawned a distinctive vampire genre, still popular in the 21st century, with books, films, video games, and television shows. The vampire is such a dominant figure in the horror genre that literary historian Susan Sellers places the current vampire myth in the "comparative safety of nightmare fantasy".
In architecture, a gargoyle is a carved stone grotesque, usually made of granite, with a spout designed to convey water from a roof and away from the side of a building thereby preventing rainwater from running down masonry walls and eroding the mortar between. Architects often used multiple gargoyles on buildings to divide the flow of rainwater off the roof to minimize the potential damage from a rainstorm. A trough is cut in the back of the gargoyle and rainwater typically exits through the open mouth. Gargoyles are usually an elongated fantastic animal because the length of the gargoyle determines how far water is thrown from the wall. When Gothic flying buttresses were used, aqueducts were sometimes cut into the buttress to divert water over the aisle walls.

I'd strongly suggest that Cunning_Wish change at least his "Athena" submission's name, as swishy has already fully developed his take on of Athena, even though it does not use the same elements.

Also, be sure to take advantage of the fact you can include 1 additional image along with your deck image. Give users an idea of what your FG looks like!

Spoiler for background story (315):
Soft clouds float airily upon the horizon, a gentle sea breeze drifting upon the air. There were many birds and creatures shuffling about their business on this day. The ocean was calm today. A wonderous place, the ocean was. Like today, it could be beautiful and serene, coaxing one to leave their worries behind. Other days, it would be a potpourri of chaos, waves tempest tossed and biting winds chilling your very bone. It could, with little warning, retreat suddenly, then come crashing back upon you with the full force of a tsunami.

Typhoon is the story of the ocean, a false god who shows little sign of great power when he has just started. However, given time, his power becomes unstoppable...

He used to look upon his domain benevolently, guiding it subtly with his powers over the waters, leaving the rest to the quiet work of time. But that was then, and this is now. Times had changed greatly since those days. Now, all he could see were greedy elementals hoarding their electrum, fighting over the smallest and most insignificant things, polluting what was once pristine and sacred, and boasting of their powers as if they were gods. It was the latter that truly enraged him. Noone was stronger, after all. He wouldn't allow such sacrilege!

His retribution would start slow, but it would surely end swift, purifying the world in the way only he knows how: through flooding and freezing what should not exist. And that meant all the elementals defiling his domain, to be treated like weeds, swept ashore at high tide and hung out to dry in the bitter sun. He would change things for the better!

While restoring balance was usually the work of Nature, there was no harm in hastening Nature along, after all. Everything would go back to the way it once was, this time hopefully for eternity.
