Suvnica Week 14 Review, Part 1: Living in the Future (Kismi Keywords)

Kismi proved to be one of the more challenging guilds to design keywords for. Because so much of their identity is tied up in predicting the future, and because translating that into game mechanics leads to either very cumbersome rules text or unfun methods of playing, it was tricky to find a keyword that hit that sweet spot of fun, grokable, flavorful, NWO-friendly rules. Still, we came up with a number of really strong efforts here. Let's see what everyone had to say about our fortune-tellers.

Designing Suvnica, Week 14: Present Tense

Here we are -- the last week of keyword design challenges. I'll probably be taking a week or two off after this to figure out where we're going next with Suvnica (and to catch up on card reviews -- I know I'm a few weeks behind). Let's wrap up this stage and dive into Kismi and Sorba.

Suvnica Guild Profile: The Kismi

(This is part of a series of documents that are meant to provide snapshots of each of the guilds. These documents will probably be updated with some regularity. They are meant to provide a starting reference point when developing new cards and ideas for the guilds.)

{G}{U} The Kismi

Fate has a very prominent role on Suvnica, and no group is more immersed in tapping into the signals fate broadcasts and interpreting them than the Kismi.
