NAME = TOME OF ANCIENT SECRETS
SUBTITLE = MAGICAL WOUNDING

ARTIFACT EQUIPMENT GLYPH
At the end of each round, if the figure equipped with this card has the Magical Defense special power, you may reveal an "X" Order Marker on this figure's Army Card to roll one combat die. For each skull rolled, place 1 Wound Marker on this glyph's card. After revealing an Order Marker on this figure's card and instead of taking a turn with this figure, you may choose one figure within 5 clear sight spaces, remove all the Wound Markers from this card, and inflict them on the chosen figure.

Is it worth trying to get the Holy Bible off the cover?
“Hi, I’m Skeletor. Have you heard about our lord and savior Jesus Christ?”

I might actually not close the door on the Jehovahs if this guy represented them. Granted, it'd only be for the entertainment value, but that's the best they'd get...

I've never had any respect for those people, ever since they came to my house when I was a kid and they got scared off by my dog... even though there were two doors between them and said dog... and the dog was a corgi. I bet Skeletor wouldn't have been so easily chased off.

[Lazy Orang]

I just don't have any respect for them anyway, chap. For... so many reasons.

Did not spot that, obviously. I'll go with another image a bit later. Shouldn't be hard to find a replacement.

Cards are up.

Thanks! Looks good, but I worry the book blends into the background too much. Any way to make it pop more?

[Lazy Orang]

Since we moved away from the whole Bible thing, I just want to be sure we're good with the

Pentacle

Pentacle

and all the symbolic meaning associated, and are aware of the symbols we're using. Personally, I think it's beautiful, though.

~Lazy Orang, who actually wears a pentacle.

[IAmBatman]

The magical association seems relevant. Seems like it predates wiccan and has been used in different contexts.
