in the enviroment of this set, dredge will not be broken, as there will be no opportunities to abuse the mechanic within the set. I do not intend for the set to be played with other sets in Magic.
I thought that suspend was a really cool mechanic, and so I'm bringing it back. Doesn't have to be realistic for me!
A set heavily based on lorwyn, Ioces is a tribal set that has tribes based on enemy coloured pairs. This is my first attempt at doing something like this, and I am most definately not finished, so please leave suggestions! I am especially looking for help with a storyline. Thank you!
Plants-B/G A thick temperate rainforest cover a wide area on Ioces. It is inhabited by sentient (not very sapient) plants. These plants can vary in size hugely, from the size of house cats to the largest, The Primordial Ancient.
Humans-B/W On the verge between the forest and the fields, lies countless tribes of humans. Due to their natural lack of strength, the humans of this plane call to the demons AND angels of the plane for aid. This has led them to have a strict caste system, which is lead by the arch-bishop nanhute.
Efreet-R/W Nomads that roam the foothills, the efreet are an extremely violent, yet intelligent race that feed on the burnt charcoal that their burning campaigns leave in their wake. The efreet roam in parties to collect material for the "Great Flame" from which they are born. the most powerful and notable warrior of them all being Flushfree, the incinerator.
Fish-U/G Fish that live in the seas, lakes, and rivers of Ioces. Some fish of the plane have the ability to fly and(in the cases of larger fish) the ability to create water from thin air(possible interactions between planes?). The fish vary wildly in size. The most powerful fish on Ioces, is Whemitan, the infinite sea.
Viashino-U/R unlike on other planes, the viashino of Ioces are very scholarly and collected. They feel that they are the most perfect beings on Ioces. The viashino have a very strong understanding of artifice, and will regularly cover themselves in high tech armor or create golems. Their ultimate quest is to keep themselves safe by any means necessary. A figure in their culture that exemplifies this ideology is Grand Architect Shi-Shi.
Suspend- a reprint mechanic that all tribes will use.
dredge- another reprint mechanic that will be present in the plants tribe, explored more than in ravnica
Defenders- a theme in the plant tribe
tapping- creatures and spells in the human tribe will have benefits for tapping many creatures
Illuminate- whenever this creature deals non-combat damage, [Effect]. This will be present in the efreet tribe.
Sudden- you may cast this spell any time you could cast an instant. When this spell is on the stack, your opponents cannot cast spells or activate the abilities of permanents they control. this mechanic will be present within the fish tribe.
contraptions- a spell or ability may assemble a contraption which puts a colorless artifact token named contraption onto the battlefield (with no abilities). this will be present in the viashino tribe and artifacts.
