    Our rewards will remain as they are unless we introduce new add-ons.

    We plan on showcasing more content throughout our campaign which we are personally very excited about!

    The Eminence Team wanted to pay homage to numerous gaming legends who all played a key part in our lives growing up. It's important to note that these cards will not appear in Eminence: Xander's Tales but were created merely as fan art.
    All the characters depicted in these designs and their IP belong to their respective owners/studios.

    For years, this notorious Division has groomed troubled young girls into merciless killers. Harlequins are trained to subdue their emotions and lend their powers to other nations for financial and political benefits. As their purpose to create conflict benefits them financially, some believe they are influencers of key wars which have plagued Artalys. Harlequins heighten their Alchemy powers by pledging to the Guardian Gemini. They're brought up to believe that the state of happiness in a dying word is an illusion which hastens ones death.

    Introducing the first card of the Division, Tragedy.

    Hi guys,
    thought I'd introduce you to Kana.

    This sinister harlequin uses trickery to achieve what she wants. Since a young age, she revelled in the misery of others to often mask her own troubled childhood. She was instantly promoted to a higher rank in the Division by strategically killing her predecessor. Kana serves the Harlequins as the organisations key spy and has shifted through many nations under numerous appearances conducting wide scale espionage.

    Though detached from the other members, her bond with Riddle is strong and has enabled the two to often work together using one anothers skills to achieve their goals. Despite lacking the same level of physical strength found with other Harlequins, she makes up for it with strong Alchemy abilities and high intelligence.

    Shurikan - Blades of Enlightenment

    As Indra's right hand, Shurikan's sole duty is the protection of Ixions relic, its people and enforcing the beliefs and principles of the land. He is regarded as one of the nations strongest warriors and the only person to ever put a scratch on the great sage Indra during a sparring session. A unique mask and armour adorns his body made from the skin of Indra's own guardian, Qinglong, providing him with unparalleled defence against physical attacks. His fierce martial arts skills uniquely combined with the power of Chakra Alchemy has enabled him to easily subdue large groups of enemies at a time.

    Each card can be designated for 'protection' , therefore if you have a Kickstarter exclusive card you can secure it despite losing a game - as they won't be able to obtain it.

    Gemini - Divinity of Chaos

    Once known by the Harlequins as the beautiful war maidens, Rozlyn and Nimesh wielded legendary fighting abilities. One shined with bright intellect and the other elicited extraordinary strength and agility. The two, un-separated for years went on to win battle after battle.

    Nimesh came to resent Rozlyn for her remarkable strength. Seduced by the dark power contained in the relics, she absorbed too much antima and lost her soul to the guardian Gemini. Nimesh, consumed by the guardian waged destruction and began slaughtering in countless numbers. Forced to battle her own, a duel between sisters collided into a bloody fight. With the conflict ending in both of their deaths.

    Their legacies lived on through their youngest sister Roza, who cried endlessly for their return. The souls of Rozlyn and Nimesh manifested into Roza's mind, and their war continued. With one trying to use Roza's body as a vessel for destruction and the other vowing to protect her youngest sibling. Over time, the Harlequins have tried to train Roza to harness the power of her kin. However, the two sisters' conflict has driven Roza into madness making her wield uncontrollable strength, which often cannot be contained by the Harlequins themselves.

    I thought that may be the case. Anyway as my input for thought during development I would think it fair to have special rules considering protection for anything KS related that can be stolen. Be nice if you do something for normal cards too of course.

    I haven't partaken of any info regarding the stealing of cards, so I'm not quite sure I understand the mechanism well enough, but it seems to me a given that any reward acquired from the Kickstarter campaign should be innately immune.

    Even the manual option to protect Kickstarter rewards might not be good enough, as that means that players can still lose their Kickstarter rewards if they forget to protect, tap carelessly, etc. Care should always be taken to protect early backers from any loss of backing privilegies.

    card battles remind me of FF 8's triple triad. Were you guys inspired by it? I really like the art style of the cards and environment but there is a clash of cute and serious all over. I wonder if that would mesh?

    Hi Pandaryll, the core mechanics are Triple Triad with our own unique rule modifiers mixed into play. We plan on continuing to refine the characters to streamline the overall aesthetics. Thank you for your feedback, always appreciated. :)

    Eminence Weapons

    Today we wanted to give you guys a little treat and show you some of the cool weapons you'll be able to equip your character with. This edition focuses on those who live by the sword.
    You'll be able to upgrade your weapons as you level up your character. These images show the progression of weapons in the game for the first four Divisions.
