Chroma Champion - 1x
Artifact Creature - R
Spend only 1 color of mana to cast Chroma Champion
Chroma Champion is the color of mana you spend to cast it.
If Chroma Champion is black it has deathtouch; green it has reach; white it has vigilance; red it has haste (too overpowered?); blue it has shround; colorless it has (I can't think of a colorless ability? Maybe tap for mana?).
Another idea for it is that it is the colors of mana you spend to cast it, and that it has each ability of each color you spend to cast it (like black/blue it has shroud and deathtouch), but I think the main idea is more balanced.

I'm not really sure what you mean by "(mirrodin plane) lands". Do you mean a land from a mirrodin set, or a whole type of land that is based on a plane?

Talos the mighty! Talos the unerring! Talos the unassailable! To you we give praise!
Anyways, the card seems pretty well balanced. The only thing I would say is that the last seems out of place. It might just be me, but something about it seems off...
Glehar, Spirit - Just noticed that, thanks for pointing it out
Trade Route - I meant to word it that way so it can be applied to various things, although your wording makes more sense and functions pretty much the same way.
Forest Spirit - It's meant to be green-only, when I put up the flavor, you'll see that all the green cards (primarily beasts and other animals) have a strong connections to Glehar, who is essentially the "forest-father". Perhaps it can be renamed to something like "spirit"?
Pilgrim's Path - Thanks! The pilgrims are essentially meant to be a lot of tokens, but I wanted to add something to them to spice them up. I decided they would add one life. I guess they go and join up with another frontier town?
Port Of Ashad - Yup, I meant to change that!
Trading Post - Yup, pretty much for flavor!
Black-Market Deal - I think I'll scrap the card and make it into something else. What I do for inspiration for cards is just go on art websites and look for pieces of art that would make good cards. The art stood out to me.
Braving The Seas - When I eventually add in the flavor, you'll see that blue is primarily "neutral" merchant vessels and things of the sea. I'll see if I can change the idea of the card.
Deepsea Goliath - I'll fix it's type. As for high-tide, that wording makes sense, but I wanted High Tide/Low tide to be pretty much copies of each other with the opposite affect. I'll change them both, because the opponent's creatures don't block on his/her turn either.
The Eventyr plane is somewhat based around the Americas. First you have settlers and pilgrims coming to colonize the land. Then, after a while, the colonies split from the mainland. In this case, you have pilgrims coming to the continent of Rishari (I need a better name) to colonize. Here's the breakdown of colors:
Red - The native tribal people of Rishari. They are primitive, but they know their way around the vast forests and jungles (similar to the Native Americans).
Blue - "Neutral" merchant vessels and sea monsters. These are the trade ships that have no affiliation. They aren't brining colonists, and they aren't shipping slaves.
Black - Colonists that are trying to exploit the natives through slavery and other nefarious deeds (different from white).
White - The regular colonists and pilgrims that are coming simply to found a new life for themselves and others.
Green - Beasts and animals that have a strong connection to the forest. That are somewhat tied together with red, but they aren't allies.
As for affiliations:
Blue - White : The Ships and the Colonists
Red - Green : Natives and Native Animals
Black is somewhat on it's own, no one likes them 'cause they're evil.
Anyways, there's a lot of work to be done, and this is a very, very, very, very, very unfinished set (background and card wise).
