Red Deck: “Failure” Cards with Roleplay Emphasis on Attachment
Bond Severance
Effect: For one round, you cannot benefit from any auras or abilities that require an emotional or magical bond (like friendship, leadership, etc.) from your allies.
Roleplay Emphasis: The failure of your attack momentarily severs the subtle threads of attachment and trust that tie you to your allies. You feel isolated, and for a brief period, any benefits derived from your allies’ abilities elude you.
Frayed Loyalties
Effect: An ally within 30 feet of your choice suffers a -2 penalty to their next attack roll or ability check.
Roleplay Emphasis: Your failed attack causes doubt to ripple through the emotional bonds you share with your allies. One ally feels this acutely, their trust waning just enough to slightly impair their next action.
Echoing Disappointment
Effect: The negative energy from your failed attack enhances an enemy’s resolve. One enemy of your choice gains a +2 bonus to their saving throws until the end of their next turn.
Roleplay Emphasis: The ripple effect of your failure reverberates further than expected, temporarily invigorating an enemy. They feel a newfound attachment to their cause, making them more resilient for a short time.
Green Deck: “Crit” Cards with Roleplay Emphasis on Attachment
Unified Strike
Effect: For one round, all allies within 30 feet gain a +1 bonus to their attack rolls.
Roleplay Emphasis: Your critical hit enhances the emotional and magical bonds among your allies. They feel a surge of confidence and shared purpose, their attacks becoming more accurate as a result.
Heartening Success
Effect: One ally within 30 feet regains hit points equal to half of your level (rounded down, minimum 1).
Roleplay Emphasis: The spectacle of your critical hit revitalizes the emotional connections among your team. One ally feels particularly heartened, recovering some lost vitality as their spirits lift.
Shared Weakening
Effect: Your successful attack saps the energy from an enemy, reducing their attack rolls by -2 until the end of their next turn.
Roleplay Emphasis: Your critical hit disrupts the emotional or magical attachments that the enemy may have, weakening their resolve. They find it harder to focus, and their subsequent attacks suffer as a result.
These cards aim to accentuate the role of emotional or magical attachments among allies and enemies within the framework of the game mechanics. The red deck primarily offers consequences that involve the breaking or weakening of these bonds, whereas the green deck focuses on strengthening or leveraging these connections for benefit.
