Cards

Cards are game elements that are not items, but only as the possible effects of evoking of a deck item. There are two aspects to the potency of a card's effect, called "power" and "power_level" in the source code.

Power

Power is used as a basis for determining the power of any spells cast by the card, and is computed as follows:

  • Everyone gets a base power of nine times their Evocations skill
  • Ornate decks add 150 to the base power; legendary decks add 300.
  • Characters under Nemelex penance subtract their penance score from the power.
  • Nemelex worshipers in good standing add (Piety × (Evocation + 25) / 27) to the power.

Power level

Many cards use the power level to determine what they do. By default, the power level of a card is zero; ornate and legendary decks can boost the power level:

  • Ornate decks get one (power in 700) chance to boost the power level.
  • Legendary decks get one (power in 500) chance and one (power in 700) chance.
