Jewdragons a shit

Unrelated to flakes, I have to say...

Bolas is still fucking great.

Can we have a new sheet? Or do we want to set up something cool, like a challenge to make a new flake/plane around randomly rolled aspects/cards?
I have this thing, and it'd be cool if we explored some of the lesser known aspects of the colors.
Like, how often is a blue mage elemental air? Or Green destiny? Or even White Idealism (which is different than 'good')

I feel like white has more to do with destiny these days.

Green also has as much elemental air as blue does, doesn't it?

>I feel like white has more to do with destiny these days.
Maybe so, but it shouldn't.
As for elemental air, blue has flying as a native power for most creatures.

>>54666528
They're overprice, which is EEEVILLL

>>54666539
Yeah but green has stuff like windstorm and Arashi, which are literally just wind.

>>54666556
Green has natural wind, blue has manmade wind

Your chart is, to some extent, full of shit.

>>54666641
Well, the difference clearly isn't man made vs natural.

So can we agree that elemental wind is a U/G thing rather than just one or the other?

>>54666646
No it's not you tard.
What parts of that chart do you think are wrong? Where does it even contradict that image? (Which is unfortunately a little dated, by the way)

Blue tends to have more winds, and more harrowing or impeding winds, but rarely something that would actually hurt you.

Meanwhile green has the wind that cuts and uproots and destroys.

>>54666694
Well, green wind also generally has beef with fliers.

So it's kind of the wind that enforces a natural order.

>>54667212
The Phyrexian Plaguelord is a flake meme that originally was a posting of the art in each thread, with a threadly reminder that all flakes are shit.

It's basically just someone reminding everyone that there's no point in getting up on your high horse about making snowflakes.

>>54667212
It's a reminder that all snowflakes, especially yours, is shit.

>>54667236

>>54666086
question for you all on a flake I'm thinking about making.

What "kind" of magic could you consider sand-manipulation ala Duneblast that isn't geomancy? Like how Ajani's power is considered to be Soul Magic, but effectively manifests as healing and buffing most of the time. I'm trying to think of a power that would be wide open in use and scope, but at its most basic form could be used to do desert stuff.

This is also because I really like the new desert cards and am making a dumb casual deck of them.

>>54667608
a person who manipulates sand is a sand witch

>>54667608
Any sort of wind I guess.
Technically you could get away with it just under its own heading, like how sandbending is different from earthbending in Avatar.

>>54667608
Gust magic

>>54667608
I made a desert themed flake who was all about boardwipes in black, green, and white. All sandstorms and flash desiccation.

Rolled 4 (1d5)

>>54666456
MAKE AN ASPECT FLAKE
> Rules:
Roll xd5 (however many colors you want)
Then roll a d13 to see which aspect you get however many times in whatever color you want.
BONUS/HARD MODE: Make a walker that uses that aspect NOT in the color you roll it in (e.g. wind magic is under blue, make a monogreen that uses it)

I'll start

Rolled 10, 12, 6 = 28 (3d13)

>>54668200
Alright, monored. Rolling 3d13 to see the aspects I get.

Rolled 2 (1d5)

>>54668200
Interesting idea, I'll give it a shot.

Rolled 2 (1d5)

>>54668225
I'll try for that bonus extra hard mode, and roll another d5 to figure where I'm getting that aspect from.

>>54668225
6: Inspiration
10: Chaos
12: Humor
So I'm looking at a person who draws inspiration from Chaos, and sees the lighter side of it all. Or, someone who's a natural jester and con artist, who causes chaos in their wak-
Oh god, I just rolled Sheogorath.

And I guess their mechanic is burying cards.

Rolled 7 (1d13)

>>54668235
Well shit. Maybe I'll just make it some weird planeshifted blue then.

>>54668258
Hrmm, planeshifted blue creation then. Maybe something with false thoughts, janky blue primal-plasma style stuff?

Rolled 8, 12 = 20 (2d13)

>>54668384
Eh, fuck it I'll give it another two rolls.

>>54668256
Finished selecting the cards. Now I just gotta write up for her...

Rolled 4, 4 = 8 (2d5)

Alright, white and green. Let's see what we get.

>>54669622
>Honor, Restrictions, Spirituality, Growth

I'm kind of at a loss here. Especially with the restrictions and growth part. I want to say gardener, but honor makes that weird. Maybe commonality? Human tribal?

>>54669656
Need some help?
> Honor
Speaks for itself. Although with green, could interpret as honor ancestors (spirituality), nature (growth), whatever.
> Restrictions
Even better. Holding oneself back in ascetic lifestyles to preserve ones honor, or the sanctity of nature, or to allow other things to grow
> Spirituality
Clearly into that ancestor spirit stuff. Maybe Kamigawa dude? We don't have many walkers from there.
> Growth
Probably the easiest. Growth doesn't need to be plant growth, it could be spiritual growth (honor/spirituality/restrictions works in there) or the growth of a people (so he could be a fairly powerful patriarch of a clan), or even just gettin' swole on his own.

>>54669707
>Even better. Holding oneself back in ascetic lifestyles to preserve ones honor, or the sanctity of nature, or to allow other things to grow

I didn't even consider personal restrictions. I just defaulted to stuff like arrest and the law-mage side of white and didn't go further than that.

Thanks anon.

>>54669729
I'm envious you got those desu. >>54668910 was fun, but she really is just an ADHD character no better than Chandra, but there's surprisingly more limitation when you're drawing outta just one color.

The best walkers are those that have a bit of outside the box thinking, I feel, and it's a surprise in the rolls we've had so far they've been so... idk, generic.

Not a random roll, but I do have a flake to post

>>54670267
Cute! Cuuuuute!
In all seriousness, nice character. She seems very green (as in new) so there's a lot of potential development there, and you've captured the main flavor of monowhite. Planeswalker's pretty decent too, although the ult in a lifegain would be so overpowered.

>>54670267
Where's Odatham? Is it a custom plane?

>>54670342
Thanks. And yeah, she's a newbie, so there's plenty room for change.

>>54670679
It's a custom plane. Bit of a "generic fantasy" vibe, like Shandalar. It's got plenty of castles, both in use and in ruins, and the plane used to be a water world. Now the only evidence of that is the many underground seas where merfolk dwell.

>>54670745
Thinking of doing any fics with her? There's maybe a few other anons who have flakes on Theros right now. If memory serves, there's a couple. That other knightly dude, Gnath, and the destiny guy Thane
