is color required? I pretty much only have line-art transformations.

I feel as if I need to pick from two paths...Light...Dark...Loneliness. Love will pull me into light, hate into dark and an absence of either into loneliness.

Well not really the pictures can be anything at this point I'm no good with digitally editing anything cause I only have MS Paint or Publisher to do that sort of stuff but Line art would do for a pic.. If I am able to get someone to join the project who could colour stuff in then maybe all cards would be coloured... just need to find someone willing first lol

If possible a 200x200 picture of your character, these arn't really important at the moment but it would make the card look good.
Preview of the Character Card: (Still isn't Finished) [link]
Preview of Power Up Card: (Again still not finished) [link]
Stat Sheet
Typical
Name (Of Character)
Level (All cards start at Level 0 unless it is an Update card See Below)
Artist Name (That's you ^_^)
Allegiance (You know Good, Evil or Neutral please only choose one)
Element (You have the choice of: Earth, Air, Water, Fire, Light and Dark. All Level 0 Cards can only have one. You don't need to choose an Element if you don't want to)
Stats
Please do not go power mad and rate everything 6 or 7 otherwise your character will be way too powerful. Even if it's stats would be that high.
Power: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7]
Durability: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7]
Speed: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7]
Intelligence: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7]
Energy Projection: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7]
Weapon Skill: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7]
Fighting Ability: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7]
Type
Some Characters are more than one type. For instance a Metal Unicorn would be a Machine and a Myth card if it still had bio representations of a Unicorn. If it was purely a machine that is all it would be
Anthro - Covers all animals forms with human atributes (Sonic the hedgehog for example)
Myth - Dragons, Unicorns, Phoenixs, creatures yes but not as we know them myth is far great than reality.
Animal - It is what it is an Animal, not and Anthro cause this version is what it is supposed to be.
Machine - This covers Androids (Including Bio Androids), Cyborgs and anything else that has mostly metal
Mortal - We all know what Mortals are. No tinkering and no super abilities just your average weight trained Mortal. (Think Jackie Chan etc)
Super - Could be Human but no Human has laser vision, in other words if your OC can do something unnatural it is more than likely a Super Hero or Villain
Alien - Not from this world? Tentacles and weird technology, yep your a alien buddy. It will be classified as Super if it does something like have laser vision. Aliens rely on technology or bio weapons mainly.
Cursed - Covers thinks such as Vampires and Zombies... Although Werewolf could fit into Anthro a Werewolf is a curse so it would be a Creature
Spirit - Is it dead? Something that resembles a Angel or Demon... It is classified as a Spirit.
Fandom - Made for a series that already exists... Might belong to you but its made for something else.
Collab Hybrid - These are insain cards made by fusing two characters together... The result is weird or cool but either way it is good. (A bit like DNA Digvolving)
If you can think of any more please tell me
Special (For this you can put an ability that effects the way you battle obviously depending on what you put it might have to be tinkered with to suit the game.)
Bio (Just short a sweet and to the point bio about the character.)
Flavour Text (This is the spice the card up it isn't needed if you don't want it but maybe you would like to include a quote from you or the character just to add a slight bit of comedy to it.)
Update Cards
Update cards are much better as they go along. Some will need requirements and others won't here is a series of Cards that go through Updates (Notice the Level as well)

Those are how Update Cards work.
Power Up Cards
If you like you can make Power Up Cards as well there are three types:
Attach: Attach to a single card on the battle feild and it will effect it in a certain way.
Link: Effects all of your cards on the battle feild in the same way.
Effect: A special effect that takes place on one turn only
All power up cards have a cost to them the better the effect the more the cost.
ID Cards
The most powerful card of them all if you have a lot of Characters. A ID card is a special Link card that has some serious effects behind it and a bit of information on the artist.
And that is all if you want to help out just fill out the list above.
