Why don't you make your dream card closer to the Phial of Galadriel, Star-Glass and just make it a transferrable condition that makes a minion lose gametext?

Well, my goal is more along the lines of the card being "hidden" so to speak for a phase from all players. I guess preventing the card from being spotted, or the target of any abilities would be better?

To meet that goal in its most literal sense, I would suggest "Phase:[/b]b]Phase:[/b [Cost] to make this card inactive until the end of this phase."

The problem is that "inactivity" has not been defined in this card game. In a game that requires the most detail in its cards as possible, this would just create another Galadriel, Lady of Light situation. What is "playing for free?"

I think the best way to do it is to have a card unable to use abilities or be targeted by events or abilities. Does that not accomplish what you wish, Lurtzy?

Well... I don't want to create a new keyword, but that may be necessary with the complexity of this situation. Thanks guys. :gp:

Hmm, how about using "not active" in some way, then. Surely, if "active" is described in the rules, "not active" would be OK...?

It's kind of a moot point, as I've already made a new keyward for it, to lessen clutter and confusion.

Perhaps you will hear more about that later. :whistle:

Bit of a side note, but that's got to be one of the worst lores I've ever read. What makes it even worse is that it's in the first set.

Yeah, crappy Decipher-made lore has always been a pet hate of mine, and this is a prime example.
