Death Wish: Trades places with an ally about to be hurt.

ART:
Original Art Link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Tunturisopuli_Lemmus_Lemmus.jpg

Colorized in GIMP to fit entropy color scheme
IDEA:
OdinVanguard
NOTES:
"Today everything just seems to fall apart"

"But at least today you've got you're furry little friend to back you up."



Essentially, its a meat shield for other more powerful creatures.

The "death wish" part is actually a trait, like the salvage ability.

The "Lucky" part is its ability. Lobotomizing, therefore, will leave it just as insane and ready to jump in front of firebolts, but without the crazy luck and reflexes that help it survive as well.

Only one lemming will trigger per damage event. Each lemming will only jump in front of damage one time per turn (assuming they survive…).

The ability will not function if the lemming is stunned, frozen, etc.

Lemmings will, however, jump in front of each other if a lemming is targeted directly.

The phrase "about to be hurt" includes any form of direct damage or death causing effect.

This includes all forms of damage except for poison, and will also include sacrifice effects.

They will even take the hit for a creature afflicted with gravity pull

Lastly, trading places includes not only taking the incoming damage, but also physically switching field slot locations as well.

They are noble little furballs… Nobel, but very stupid.
Lore:
"Contrary to popular conception, the lemmings are not driven by an urge to commit suicide, but rather by a very comically one sided fight or flight response. Apparently, every lemming thinks its a superhero."
-Excerpt from a popular Elemental Xeno-zoology text book in the Light temple library.

Whether the glass is half full or half empty is a moot point. It is always filled to the brim. It is only a matter of by what. The real question is: What fills you?

I was thinking they'd have a built in catapult ability.

Cute though, can you imagine your dragon deck losing to one built around cats and mice?

They may not have it built in, but they would automatically "volunteer" to be first in line :D

Actually, their high HP and low cost make the unupped versions decent candidates.
-> Fracta-Cata-Lemming ... might be tricky to get the quanta balance right, but could be fun.

Fractal lemmings actually makes an almost perfect single-target CC counter.

There's no need to make the upped cost 2 :entropy. 1|6 stats = 1 :underworld cost. Its ability from the unupped would cost less than 1 :underworld. A 2|8 creature with the same ability should cost 2 :underworld, but you didn't factor in the upgrade cost.

Ah... Good catch. The ability was supposed to block 2 damage instead of 1 on this guy. I'll repost when I get a chance.

Wait... but... guardian angel < this, and yet it costs three times as much. (Strangely enough, Archangel even costs three times the upped :o)

What is your reasoning on saying that guardian angel is less than this?

Guardian angel heals allies at no peril to itself, whereas this creature jumps in front of the danger.

While this creature can potentially stop a lot more than 5 points of damage in one shot, it will take significant injury in the process.

I think you're comparing apples to oranges there.

protective like creature!
you cant possibly heal a dead creature of course. Lemmiwinks will take damage....

example;
you have like fire spirits which have 2 hp (instakill/ easily killed),
lemmiwinks will prevent them from taking damage and be killed

hmmm... I can drop it to 0 attack, but it really does need a decent amount of HP to stay viable for its function.
Compared to graviton salvager its not to far off.
