I've been trying for a long time to come up with a signpost uncommon for the (White-black archetype), which is focused on the decadence mechanic. I've considered lots of options and they all don't feel uncommon, don't feel
, or don't feel like they'd have good gameplay.
I've come down to this self-animating decadence thing, whose flavour is slightly tricky but I think can be made to work.
This could be flavoured as the skyship that transports Nunnally in season 2 episode 6, the skyship with a fancy garden on board, because that does feel rather gratuitously luxurious.
Decadence itself is a somewhat tricky mechanic because you don't want a deck really super stuffed with it because then you can't afford your payments. A lot of decadence cards don't make much difference whether you trigger them for 2 or for 4. But with this effect it makes quite a lot of difference whether this is 2/2 or 4/4 or 6/6, so picking this early is a big pull to trying to collect quite a few more decadence cards.
here's some not-great art
