"Passions can't be shackled by laws or mastered with logic. The choice is freedom or death." —Volume IV, The Book of Fire
The [Pack] is home to all Vorthos, flavour goobers, artwork enthusiasts, storyline lovers, and anyone else in touch with anything tasty!
We are very open-minded and enjoy anything from art to the written word, from rp-ing to card creation, from (MTG) books to music, from chattering to goobering.
And we have an official anthem
So, you can't wait to join right?
Just make a post with something like "Hi guys, I'd like to join!" (be creative) and post your favourite flavour card, and what you like so much about the card's flavour.
Live and Let Live (Allied Clans) [Clan Mono-Black] [Soundtrack]
Anthem
Sonata Arctica - Ain't Your Fairytale
The ones who seek justice
will pray for it all their lives
They can and they will skin us all one day
oh can you hear them cries
As far as the man can run from us we're following the trail of blood
So hunt my young ones..
I have always known the storm would come
Listen now, my young ones
This is not a story I tell
of midnight, moon and sun
Are you ready to walk the forbidden road
learn again what we tried to forget
The dark can now take over you
We have a common past, an ancient bond
The people once broke
We would only take what we need
They would harvest our weak
But they hunted us all
We ended the last of them, thus far, ten lifetimes ago
In hopes of healing the sore, but the war still went on
Preying for the moon, Hiding for the day These might be our last times I ain't gonna see you taken away...
Heading for the dawn Of our way of life You're welcome to give it your best try... Look me in the eyes, oh, wolver This ain't your fairytale...
It took us many years to teach them
How to cry wolf
We made the people serve the purpose
Those ignorant fools
My young ones!
Teach the ones below you something you've learned
And learn from the ones above you
Fear is your deepest wisdom
For these last days...
Preying for the moon, Hiding for the day These might be our last times I ain't gonna see you taken away...
Heading for the dawn Of our way of life You're welcome to give it your best try... Look me in the eyes, oh, wolver This ain't your fairytale...
The ones who seek justice
will pray for it all their lives
They can and they will skin us all one day
oh can you hear them cries
As far as the man can run from us we're following the trail of blood
So hunt my young ones..
The pack they have always feared is back!
On your last day, remember, we never die
death does not exist for us
They don't fear the wolf, but the wild within
no glory to the way this must end
This is a story I told
Unfolding before you
Preying for the moon, Hiding for the day These might be our last times I ain't gonna see you taken away...
Heading for the dawn Of our way of life You're welcome to give it your best try... Look me in the eyes, oh, wolver This ain't your fairytale...
The ones who seek justice
will pray for it all their lives
They can and they will skin us all one day
oh can you hear them cries
As far as the man can run from us we're following the trail of blood
So hunt my young ones..
The pack they have always feared is back!
Being the benevolent dictator that I am (emphasis on the "benevolent"), I shall redistribute my share of the prize cookies amongst the remaining top-five title authors.
In second place, we have Silence for his effort, "Phyrexia is all [pack]ed up and ready to move to Mirrodin". :cookie::cookie::cookie::cookie::cookie:
In third place (tied for points but with fewer actual nominations) is Kat, for "Black oil runs through the veins of The [Pack]". :cookie::cookie::cookie::cookie:
Fourth is Slim with the neighbourly "The [Pack] of Phyrexians at your door". :cookie::cookie::cookie:
Bringing up the rear in fifth place is, again, Silence with "The [Pack] leaves real scars on Mirrodin". :cookie::cookie:
I'd like to also give an honourable mention to Alchemist for managing to come in sixth with "The [Pack], for one, welcomes our new Phyrexian overlords", despite it being the last suggestion of the lot. He gets my last remaining cookie.
@Everyone: Don't forget to update your sigs with the new clan thread link.
Did anyone even look at my planes? *sniff* This is my offer to anyone who wishes to use my sets in their personal decks (online for MWS) or offline, for paper. Since the sets i own rights to, i'm offering it once.
If you want it, PM me and i'll email you the setfile in MSE format.
Sig link fixed. What else to talk about?

I opened one last year, got two crap worldwake packs and 8x scathe zombies, which I promptly hid around my sister's apartment for her roommates to find. But, yeah, it was a piece of crap.
You, sir, have just won the internet. Congratulations.

Screw it, i'm posting my planes to the public too, since you guys didn't seem to comment.. and i'm an attention whore.. i want critique... *whines*

@Castle: Sig fixed. Now it reads "Radha". I'm ashamed of such a typo. By the way, my Radha EDH list is here at salvation. You just have to click on my sig over her name. (That is also true for Arcanis, Treva and Drana). Those decks are not exactly optimized or anything, but they are fun (Even if I have only played a few games against some friends I'm teaching how to play). I would like to improve them, but my local shop doesn't sell singles so I'm dependent on trading (and since I started playing about a year ago, I don't really have that many things people are interested into... :-/)

About Anime, I've seen quite a lot:
Code Geass (Seasons 1&2)
Needless
Samurai 7
Fullmetal Alchemist (Season1)
Kurogane no Linebarrels
Air Gear
Cowboy Bebop [And I own the Film]
Sakura Wars [I have both the series and the movie]
Spirited Away [I own the dvd]
Princess Mononoke
Darker than Black
Death Note
Hayate, Combat Butler
K-On!
Kenichi the Mightiest Disciple
Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu
Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann
Xenosaga
Setokai no Ichizon
Ga-Rei-Zero
Kämpfer
Sumomo Momomo
Nyan Koi!
Black Lagoon (Seasons 1&2)
Great Teacher Onizuka
Macademi Wasshoi
Beck
Claymore
Ergo Proxy
And some chapters from other series.
But what I really like is manga. That list is much, much longer...
Bleach (Volumes 1 to 30)
The Prince of Tennis (Volumes 1-23)
Air Gear (Volumes 1-15)
Zatchbell [Konjiki no Gash!!] (Volumes 1-35 [Complete])
YuYuHakusho (Volumes 1-19 [Complete])
Death Note (Volumes 1-12 [Complete])
Change Up!! (Volumes 1-3 [Complete])
And some other volumes from other series...
I've also read many, MANY other series from friends or online. One of my all-time favorites is [I]Hunter x Hunter[/I]. It's probably the first anime that got me hooked, and since then I started watching/reading whatever I could get my hands into.
And the forum went down just when I was posting this... Thank God Google Chrome "saved" the message... (once the forum came back online, and the main forum was available again, I reloaded that "problem with the database" page and the "New Reply" page showed up :)) Serendipity also played a nice role here... I didn't close the browser just in case this did work.
And yet no [I]Howls Moving Castle[/I] (one of the best anime movies of all time imo)?
On Infect: my group at the gaming shop actually had the discussion of what is damage really with infect. When me and some others mentioned how weird it is that people thing it's like "double strike on players" one guy asked "How? That doesn't make sense." Well technically the damage isn't a "replacement" clause. So it's assumed that the creature deals normal and poison damage. "But the creature is doing poison damage not regular." "Yeah so expect a lot of arguments from infect players." He shook his head and sighed as we all did. So great rules gurus of the Pack, what is the truth: do infect creatures deal both normal damage and poison damage or do they deal just poison damage?
702.87b Damage dealt to a player by a source with infect doesn't cause that player to lose life. Rather, it causes the player to get that many poison counters. See rule 119.3.
702.87c Damage dealt to a creature by a source with infect isn't marked on that creature. Rather, it causes that many -1/-1 counters to be put on that creature. See rule 119.3.
702.87d If a permanent leaves the battlefield before an effect causes it to deal damage, its last known information is used to determine whether it had infect.
702.87e The infect rules function no matter what zone an object with infect deals damage from.
702.87f Multiple instances of infect on the same object are redundant.
Infect creatures do not do "normal damage"; they do "poison damage" only. What I assumed "double strike on players" meant is that a player has to lose 20 life, but only has to gain 10 poison counters, to lose. So every 1 damage an infect creature deals is like "double damage" in terms of how many turns it takes to kill you.

*Bows to your wisdom* Thankyou Jen, much has been answered for me,. This will clear up the mess of misunderstandings.
In other news, I'm busy typing up something again just for my amusement. If I feel like posting in my blog I'll ask for critique from my clan of course, bare in mind that there might be bad grammar (shakes fist in the air) since I haven't been writing as long as seth, raikou, and various other members that are writers. I'll say more about it later if I go through with posting it.
hey anubis, your sacrfice art for your hive tyrant isn't done by andrew Hou, i found the website where you found your art, (at least i think) The art for your tyrant is called BLOOD by Guangjian Huang. Not sacrifice by Andew Hou (that's the blazeform elemental) (also updating proper art in my card. but this is the art as of now.)

I doubt Infect will be a dominant deck as well for now, however I won't be surprised to hear reports that it's a popular deck at big tournaments just for cult following alone. However when the next two sets come out maybe it'll be an even more powerful force.
Don't try to understand my sig, for it is eternal. Do not try to control it, for it is primal. Do not be alarmed by anything it does, for it is magical.
Lol.
Anyway, from what I have heard., both Myr and poison intros are the ones to go with... I pity the fool who buys deadspread... (Carnifex demon = awesome. Rest of the deck = not so much)
Oh and only problem I see with the sig is that the ooze is Mirran watermarked... Try Skith instead

Oh, lol, just to make it clear, I was issuing a banner request to any other sig artists in the clan.
Ideas for new "theme deck" of sorts:
1 Assault // Battery
1 Contract from Below
1 Day of Judgment
1 Droning Bureaucrats
2 Duress
1 Fact or Fiction
4 Foresee (Foreseeability)
1 Miss Demeanor
1 Overrule
4 Remand
1 Repeal
1 Shadow of Doubt (Beyond a reasonable doubt)
1 Supreme Inquisitor (Supreme Court)
1 Voice of Reason (Reasonableness)
1 Worldly Counsel
So...anyone here participating in the GDS2?
@ Anubis: Lol, pretty cool. I got a Hand in my Prerelease prize packs, probably I'll trade it for someone's casual deck.
