Someone messaged me on chat asking if I maintain the site, and reddit's chat feature is such shit I accidentally blocked them and can't find any way to undo it. Sorry if that was you.
I haven't played any Eternal in the last year or two, so I haven't been keeping the site up to date.
Is there anything that needs to be added or changed? Any feature requests? If it's not too huge and I have the time I can add them.
This set of cards, 8 in total, tells the story of a scion Coen. The imgur album has the story as captions below each card as they relate to his tale.
Mechanically, I wanted Coen himself to be a very difficult to remove unit that both demands and rewards heavy investment (in terms of mana and cards). I wanted his associated spells to capture primarily his illusive nature with replacement/pseudo-counter effects, and secondarily his displays of force when sufficiently provoked. Finally I wanted his site and the "finale" spell to capture his paranoia and hubris as he amassed more and more power and knowledge.
In terms of comments on my own attempt at balance, I think Cling to Life could easily be 3SS but I liked the symmetry of 3SSS more. Perhaps I could make it fast? And Water Sphere Familiar is probably too strong. 4/4/4 feels right for me and I want to keep the statline so maybe go up to PPPP? Everything else I think is in a good spot.
Here is an idea of a Card that could make a game more interesting.

Hey all, I frequent the discord in making Custom Cards. Never post here so I thought I'd share a new power cycle I made.
ESSENCE! Trapped essence of the Xultan ancestors, which give you a unit late game when you don't need power anymore. These are stronger monuments and will give greater impact once they transmute. Not only being a warp unit but they also draw a card which can help you gain board control or keep yourself in the game.
Depleted unless you have no other power felt like a nice way to balance it out early and make it stronger later when you topdeck it later when out of power.
So I will post all of them below, numbers can be changed and balanced of course. Let me know what you think!

With all the Strangers around I felt like it would be nice to have some counterplay - you could use this to either make all of your units strangers and partake of their benefits or make none of their units strangers. I'm sure their are also other possibilities here, but this was the impetus. I considered making this a 3/4 Elysian unit with the first part of the summon (not the copying) and some battle skills, but this seemed more interesting. 1 cost less than End of Hostilities but with less of a ceiling. I wanted a card that could be used for counterplay against tribal strategies, but still good enough to be used in other decks too. It could be that the effect last only as long as the relic is in play, also allowing for counterplay against it, but I feel like it is a little niche still.
