Red Deck: “Failure” Cards with Emphasis on Blessed
1. Shattered Blessing
Effect: Your failed attack causes an aura of twisted divine energy to envelop you.
For the next round, all healing effects on you or originating from you are halved.
Roleplay Element: As your attack falters, a divine light that once guided your hand dims and then flickers into a broken haze. This shattered blessing causes any healing magics to become less effective, as if the gods themselves have momentarily turned their eyes away.
2. Cursed Benediction
Effect: A divine emblem materializes briefly but turns corrupt, enhancing an enemy’s resolve.
One enemy within 30 feet gains temporary hit points equal to half their level (minimum of 1) for one round.
Roleplay Element: A divine symbol appears, glowing brightly, but then corrodes into a twisted version of itself. This corrupted emblem fortifies an enemy with dark energy, granting them temporary resilience.
3. Divine Reversal
Effect: A blessing meant for you gets misdirected, dampening the capabilities of a friend or party member.
A chosen ally within 20 feet receives a -2 penalty to their attack rolls for the next round.
Roleplay Element: As you miss your attack, a heavenly voice almost whispers a blessing, but it diverts in mid-air to envelop an ally. Their movements become sluggish, as if burdened by a misapplied divine favor.
Green Deck: “Crit” Cards with Emphasis on Blessed
1. Sacred Surge
Effect: A surge of divine energy boosts the abilities of an ally.
Choose an ally within 30 feet; they gain a +2 bonus to attack rolls for the next round.
Roleplay Element: Your critical strike releases a burst of celestial energy that rushes toward an ally, wrapping them in divine light. Their weapon or magical implement glows with heavenly power, making their attacks more potent.
2. Angelic Shield
Effect: Your critical hit calls forth a divine guardian to protect an ally.
A chosen ally within 20 feet gains resistance to all damage types for the next round.
Roleplay Element: As your weapon or magic lands true, a spectral angelic figure appears to envelope an ally, imbuing them with celestial armor that mitigates the harm they receive.
3. Heaven’s Rebuke
Effect: Your critical success invokes divine retribution against an enemy.
An enemy within 30 feet receives disadvantage on all saving throws for the next round.
Roleplay Element: Your strike is so pure and righteous that it summons the ire of divine entities. An enemy is marked with a glowing sigil of heavenly language, making it more difficult for them to resist subsequent effects.
