So, every non-land (and some land probably) card in the deck is to represent a character/item/place/ or idea from the book series The Wheel of Time. It probably wont be good, but then again, that's not the point. The point is to build a flavorful theme deck for my friends birthday coming in the next couple of months.
If you have any suggestions for cards, I'd love to hear it (Though lets try and keep it in some kind of budget, IE Gwendlyn Di Corci would make a great Forsaken, but not gonna spend that kind of money).
