[MTGO] 'Vault Guardians' Deck in Action, Part 2.

Duel 1/1.




Story.

As roads did unravel, Liliana, Attentus & Nasturtium travelled ... and looked for local myths & tales.

In one village they heard about the Weatherlight - flying ship hidden in one of the sea-caves along the shoreline.

Deciding to check the tale, they were noticed by Vlad, a Planeswalker & Psychic Vampyr who chose to challenge them.

Attentus' Mind was attacked by Vlad, who sent torments and denied Attentus his spells.

A few weeks of nausea & travel, of pains and emptiness in mind ensued.

Considering other planeswalkers, Attentus had quite Iron Will, as his Mind was considered. He patiently endured mind torture looking for opportunity to dominate local time-streams.

... Liliana did what she could to ease her consort's pains - and one day Tezzeret the Seeker, a Planeswalker Ally of Attentus and Liliana - answered Attentus' call. He brought with himself trinket that gave Attentus, Liliana and Nasturtium access to the Time Vault.

Vlad tried to avert the inevitable by constructing Nevinyrral's Disk, powerful artifact of destruction - but this came too late to save him, as Tezzeret sent consciousness-fragment with an override-sequence to the Time Vault, securing the Local Timestream Domination before Nevinyrral's Disk could turn the battlefield to a land of dust.

Duel 1/1.




Story.

As they went along shores, Attentus, Liliana & Nasturtium transgressed a forest that another plainswalker claimed as his own mana source.

A short duel ensued, Attentus gathered power quickly and summoned Transcendent Master, Silver Stream and two soldiers as an escort.

A shaman opposed Silver Stream, and was quickly defeated.

Enemy Plainswalker retreated from the duel as he wasn't prepared for this encounter.

Attentus, Lily & Nasturtium let him escape alive - and left his land as well, preferring to go around contested territory.

A little of delay was better than creating enemies wherever they walked, afterall.

Solitaire.




Story.

Travelling across shores, Attentus, Lilly & Nasturtium continued their training maneuvers.

They quickly found advantageous conditions for the time vault access, and voltaic key's construction.

They focused on dominating the local time streams, and maitaining the control.

... it was tricky & elusive endeavour, they were not sure if they succeeded - when they walked with their presence manifesting across multiple realities, everything seemed hazy, sleepy dream. Silvery energies of time streams they travelled superimposed with a plains & isles landscapes in slow motion.

Summoning escort in these conditions increased the challenge - focusing on a spellcasting is one thing, but casting while maitaining other challenging spells, while tapping on time vault's qualities was even more difficult.

As in a dream, they called upon services of the Mark's Monks - of Cornelia and her Spiritual Teacher, Silent Stream, Transcendent Master.

Silent Stream was impressed with a dream-walking experience of the maneuvers, he participated in, and signed agreement with Attentus & Lilly to come when needed for a price.

After a little more than a week of challenging realities, of adjustment to a new ways, of tactical maneuvers within the silvery time stream advantage, they concluded that part of the training.

They gifted monks with a modest payment and let them go their ways.

Their quiet and nice company will be missed for a while.

Story.

After a few weeks of travel, when winter was still young, Attentus, Lilly & Nasturtium arrived at Sejiri Refuge.

Mark, the Serene Master welcomed them stoically, and soon they embarked to visit the soldiers he recruited so far.

Human monks & soldiers of a nearby Castle-Town of 'White Haze' were waiting for them in nearby inns.

Attentus, Lilliana & Nasturtium collected their hairlocks, arcane connection used in summoning rituals - and promised a good payment for their services.

Contracts were signed, initial payment was issued.

Then a couple of Plainswalkers with their young female friend went to nearby plains, to practice new strategy with no enemy.

Together they walked Attentus & Lilliana's lands, awakening the sites of Magickal Power, drawing mana from Ley-Lines.

Liliana conjured a Voltaic Key when opportunity appeared, Attentus summoned four guards - Serene Master Mark, a Tactician-Lieutenant Ulyas, a Champion-Monk Cornelia, and a Vanguard Elite Soldier of a Mercenary Army by a name of 'Red'.

They practiced some tactical combat maneuvers, visited Destinies Doors with the escort, and consulted telepathically their Enlightened Tutor, a Sage they could contact occasionally with a spell - on a Way to gain access to the Time Vault in their present conditions.

More of offensive & defensive tactical exercises commenced, then Time Vault's access was obtained, and privileges were succesfully overridden with a Voltaic Key.

Training Maneuvers commenced, soldiers were paid and left.

After a few of nights by a campfire tents, Attentus, Lilly & Nasturtium decided to keep training still.

[MTGO] 'Vault Guardians', a Deck.

'Vault Guardians' Vintage Casual Deck, themed for Monks & other Humans guarding the Time Vault.

Still in construction.

Transcendent Master for the Vault Guardians deck. it's written cleric but i believe it's buddhist martial arts monk with godly powers.

Serene Master can still outtrick him, especially with the Bident of Thassa legendary enchantment artifact.

Swords to Plowshares is hilarious, and pacifist. People should not kill.

They should work in field, instead. Even if it's Buddha's Powerfield.

... with a lot of card draw & tutors to enable faster cards combinations.

i like to Meditate & Ponder, as well as Kalachakra (Buddhist Wheel of Time) - related Time powers.

 

Story.

After facing their Destinies, Attentus & Liliana sent his Raven Familiar - Visage - with a letter to kobolds - notified them of the success and - without promising - said that they should contact them later, after payment is ready.

Meanwhile they decided to seek escort to the Time Vault & it's Keys.

Their initial skrying revealed that these keys allow to override usual privileges, and to dominate the local time streams.

But until whole process is complete, they have to survive the duel.

Lilly contacted Mark, the Serene Master and gave him a task - to seek other monks & soldiers, and be ready for a call - promising him deeper insight into the Kalachakra powers, access to the power over the time-streams.

Mark initially agreed and said he should be free for that quest soon enough.

Meanwhile they visited their fief-lands and collected seasonal coin - this automn's harvest was rich this time.

Then they visited the nearby Mage Academy and bought most of their lost spells from the other Planeswalkers, including: 'Ancestral Recall', 'Timetwister' & five Moxen.

They did reacquire the 'Power Nine' for future, as well as did invest into some lands.

Attentus also got fairly cheap legendary artifact that required significiant amount of power to activate, the Bident of Thassa, but could hasten the time stream domination and taunt enemies to attack Mark, whose strength was mostly in defense. 'Too hasty attack is often defeat', as Attentus explained for Lilliana - 'On defense we have advantage. They won't muster crushing forces that way, not to mention we can get rid of their support forces'. She accepted that legendary artifact for it's price - and mentioned that Bident is almost a Trident, symbol of Awakened Energies, as well. It was blue magick, associated with Mind, Oceans, Seas, with Air, Illusions, Time and Water.

After Academy visit, they praised the moon godess in an annual rite and embarked to see Mark in his Sejiri Refuge - hoping to arrive just after winter's beginning.

They also met their new apprentice, a woman named after a flower, Silver Nasturtium, who wished to learn from them and travel together.

She was not so rich, but was eager and willing to commit herself seriously, at least.

They accepted her charms & company gladly.
