Description
Does anyone remember Triple Triad from Final Fantasy VIII? Well this is my take on it with a bunch of my original characters. My version is designed to be played on a 5x5 or 7x7 grid, due to the sheer amount of cards that I have made. (AND I'M NOT DONE MAKING THEM.) I do have element cards as well, but they are all sitting happily in the grid right now, so they aren't here. xD Most of my characters have elements as indicated by the stickers I made and stuck to them. xD Gedeon is broken, we know this already, but he can be beaten. There are other mechanics I have worked in outside the original version, such as when you have more than one of the same character out on the grid, they kill each other. (much like the legendary rule is Magic. There is only one of them in the universe so two can't possibly exist.) Then you draw a card or two depending if one or both of the cards gone away were yours. You can be super strategic with this once you know how to use it.Anyway... my characters are put here from weakest to strongest. I will name them all for you. And if you want to know more about a certain one, just leave a comment with their name and I'll give you more info.
First row: Maeda Yukito, Yutaka "Naru" Abbot-Sandrini, Ionel Jonas Sandrini, Shiro, Malena Cuza, Matsumoto Hibiki, Kit (birth name is Angelo), Lewin, Amalia Revecca Sandrini.
Second row: Marcia 'Mars' Gwou, Mai, Missy, Kiyo Derek Abbot, Oto Mihas Sandrini, Celestin Sterling Sandrini, Kiska, Dustin Oratio Ganymede-Sandrini, Enric Kurtis Sandrini.

Fourth row: Aoki Miki, Kit (adult form), Melosa, Matsumoto Kiba, Nakano Junya, Odin Zachary Sandrini, Quark, Aoki Nishiki, Aiko.
Fifth row: Codey, Akagawa Hideaki, Leon Cuza, Dustin Oratio Ganymede-Sandrini (older version), Kuro, Nida (curse lifted), Kita Asato, Elionne "Eli" Dontae, Yutaka "Naru" Abbot-Sandrini (older version.)
Sixth row: Cameron, Maeda Ming, Baylin, Enoch Dontae, Astraea, Gedeon.

I'd say it's more insanity and boredom than heart.

..... holy crappin' cakes woman! How long did this take to do? Hell, where did you get those artist trading cards? XD Ahh! This is amazing!
And I never knew you had so many cool looking characters.
XD ..... and Gedeon seems like a real badass up there.

Well, I started making them around this time last year. I've never been consistent in when and how many I make... Just when I get inspired or when playing with a friend gets boring with the same cards. I think you can get the cards anywhere. I've gotten them at a number of places, they're super cheap, usually $1.50-$2.00 for a 20 pack.
I have... too many characters. Numerous stories, side stories etc. spawn them. Some may only be background characters, but even then I like to draw them and give them a bit of a story.
Gedeon is always badass, and is always a cheater. A notorious, notorious cheater.

A good way to keep the creative juices flowing if a rut ever strikes. Not to mention making a card game out of it!
XD We're both in the same club. Too many characters with such little time.
How he must be so popular with the LADIIESSSS.

It's so much fun to play! And provided you have a bunch of different color dice to do so, you can play with three or more people. Those games get INSANE. xD
I love the card concept, it's a good way, although slow at times, to make all your characters. Getting more in depth too, because the way I do it each placement of a number is an aspect of their personality. Top is intellect, left is creativity, bottom is strength, and right is logic. The higher the number the better of course. I like my characters with 1s or 2s for strength or intellect, because they're easy to make fun of. xD
Not really, even if they may faun over his manliness, his personality is a HUGE turnoff. And it's been said the mess of scars beneath his eyepatch can make a person hurl for days.

XD HAHAHA, MAN. I need to actually play triple triad instead of avoiding it like the plague.
*nodnod* It's something to help when in a rut... which I'm in the midst of. Yay.
Gedeon must have so MANNNNYYYY FRIENDS. *sarcasticmode*

It's much more fun in real life because you don't lose cards if you lose. xD Also playing on an enormous grid is AMAZING. has some of his own cards that we often add in when we play, adding to the shenanigans. Multi-character-verse stealing, magic slinging, punching fest.
Make cards... >_>
I can count them on one hand. xD

XD Yeah, definitely don't want to loose the cards. When I do get them from monsters/people... those cards are immediately turned into MAGIC!
And I just got them little artist cards today.

xD Sometimes when grinding for items for weapons it's easier to play people to win the cards.
I can't wait to see what you'll do with them. :3
