Edit: Honden of Tranquil Thought has incorrect text. Revision is posted in a comment below.

This seemed like a pretty obvious cycle to do. I'm sure there are loads of [[Go-Shintai of Life's Origin]] player's that definitely want to have UW versions of these.

[TLA] Re-skins compilation - Legally distinct bending!

Hey everyone, here are all the Avatar cards I've made so far, except with mechanical name changes for the bending abilities.

Now, I thought a lot about this before I started it, and my initial impression was to reflavor the abilities entirely more suited to the planes I choose. But, due to Aangs cards all utilizing multiple different bending abilities, I figured it'd be a little harder to make his cards match any sensible flavor.

Ultimately I decided to go with what could be called "legally distinct" bending abilities. I began by just using shape for all the suffixes, but windshape didn't sound appropriate. I liked the alliteration on all the non-fire ones, so it felt like the easiest and arguably cheesy way of mimicking how Arena handled Enweb.

Please feel free to give any recommendations or advice, even suggestions as to what you guys might think would be better terms to replace them. I'm a huge fan of Avatar, so I definitely see myself making more of these, and it'd be good to know what the general feel is.

Preliminary [TLA] re-skins - Part 4

All right, here we are. Finally we're at airbending. I honestly had no clue what direction to go in setting wise, given that I was finally dealing with a creature with the Avatar subtype. Obviously he's a Human Avatar, so that makes it simple. I'm not sure where Human Avatars fit into Magics lore, so I guess feel free to imagine what you like onto the characters.

Preliminary [TLA] redskins - Part 1

Hey everyone, here are a few cards I've been working on as a larger project to slowly integrate Avatar into the world of magic. While technically printable and playable as is, I still consider these to be conceptual.

Firstly, I originally intended to rename the abilities as to not keep the bending names in, but I'm not too sure of that anymore. I had some ideas, but ultimately the resting for [[Avatar Aang]] would need to have all the abilities on it, meaning it'd likely come across as weird with totally different themes is the names all vary too much. I believe the bending names still gets across the concept of "people who are magically controlling this element".

For today's post, I have a few Firebending cards to represent Kheral Keep on Regatha. It's a Monastery that teaches pyromancy, so it seemed like an all star place for all our firebenders to learn from. I imagine post-Invasion, Kheral Keep has gotten a good few more students from omenpath travel.

Now obviously there's a lot of cards to reskin, so that being said, what are some of the best exclusive firebending related cards that need to be ported over?

The Roil

I was reading on the wiki that the merfolk are the only ones that sense it. How exactly does that entail? Does that mean they're the only ones on the plane using the awakening magic? Can others learn?
