Story[]

At the origin of the universe, where all existence begins, the Plane of Chaos stands. Here, vast cosmic energies give rise to new beings of unimaginable scale and power, snuffing them out again in the same instance. Those creatures that exist long enough to escape the primordial null and become self-aware are called Chaons. Not a true species, the individuals of this race vary widely in power, size, and capability, ranging from levels smaller and weaker than animals, all the way to the level of gods and beyond.

Oriana is the most powerful known Chaon, possessing powers to alter space, time, and the laws of reality themselves. She has set up an empire of sorts--banding together the various races of the planes, and conquering her way across the multiverse. The Prime World, which sits in the very center of the linear planes, is one of her many current projects for conquest. This world presents an interesting problem, as the leylines surrounding Indines form a tight mesh that prevent her from mustering her full power in that world. Instead, she must reach through cracks in those leylines--using allies like Zaamassal or breaches like Cherri to manifest and project her power.

Oriana appears human in the world of Indines, but the body that she projects into the world is really just a puppet with only the tiniest fraction of her true capability. Those who have seen her true form say she is more akin to a star in appearance and magnitude. She's a character so alien as to be completely unrelatable and inscrutable.

Unique Abilities[]

Ability Name	Character Version	Description
Magic Pool	Original	Oriana has a pool of Magic Point (MP) tokens. She begins a duel with 6 of these tokens, and has a maximum limit of 10. She uses these tokens to fuel her attacks, and may ante any number of them during the Ante phase. The tokens have no effect, but many of her triggered effects will only activate if she has anted a minimum number of tokens. Oriana’s MP triggers activate based on a minimum number of tokens, so a trigger like “MP2+:” will activate if two or more MP were anted. Note: All of Oriana’s MP effects are cumulative. For example, anteing 5 MP with Calamity will give Oriana both the 2MP+ and 5MP+ triggers.
Magic Well	Alternate Art	Oriana has a pool of 30 Magic Point (MP) tokens. She begins a duel with all of these tokens. She uses these tokens to fuel her attacks, and may ante up to 7 of them during the Ante phase. The tokens have no effect on their own, but many of her triggered effects will only activate if she has anted a minimum number of tokens. Whenever Oriana is instructed to regain MP tokens by an effect, she ignores that effect.
MP Regeneration	EX	Oriana has a pool of Magic Point (MP) tokens. She begins a duel with 6 of these tokens, and has a maximum limit of 10.

The tokens have no effect, but many of her triggered effects will only activate if she has anted a minimum number of tokens.

Note: All of Oriana’s MP effects are cumulative. For example, anteing 5 MP with Calamity will give Oriana both the 2MP+ and 5MP+ triggers.
