Elvish Champion

Global Effects in Older Magic

New 21 Jul 2024 Asked by fanfactorpodcast 7 Comments

Why did older Magic make Lord effects global like Elvish Champion? Who advocated for that and what were the benefits they presented ?


Early Magic leaned into flavor. It turns out global effects both weren’t intuitive and didn’t play great, so five or so years in we (mostly) stopped doing them.

Unrules Question: For Hardy of Myra’s Marvels ability, if a piece of flavor text is a quote and the quoter is on its own line (e.g. “Elvish Hymn” on the flavor text for Elvish Champion) does it count as an additional line?


It does.
