Set the Art
Rituals
Once again, the time has come. A set file of 209 cards, filled to the brim with thematically aligned art. But design wise, nothing. No rarities, no converted mana costs, no creature/noncreature ratios, no mechanics. Only the art, sorted evenly in colours. And nothing else.
The rest, my dearies, is up to you.
Anyone who wants to take part need simply download the set file, and start designing. Come up with their own lore and story to explain the art, and keywords to tie it together. If some people want to collab, go for it, but also feel free to go solo. This is not an everyone does the one set project; it's an everyone interprets it into their own set project. All I ask is that when you finish, you tag me; either in here or in the sets own thread, if you feel like going that route.
In the spoilers at the bottom of this post, I'll be going over some of the tags used to help organize this, tips on navigating and using the set file, and some example set skeletons you can follow if you want (since 209 isn't a canon set file size with pre-existing skeletons to follow).
THE SET FILE
{Further Information}• At the bottom of the file, you'll find lands, as normal. One for each colour, and one colorless. Of course, feel free to move these around. Maybe you want duals, or all colorless, or gold. Go hog wild.
• There are four potential recurring 'characters' that appear throughout the art. They've been tagged !character1, !character2, etc to make sorting them easier.
• Unlike last time, I didn't bother tagging ones I felt worked as walkers. People mostly ended up ignoring that anyway. Instead, I've just gone and included links to all the artwork.

{Set Skeleton Examples}Some quick notes on how these are formatted:
• The numbers listed alongside the colours in the common section is creature card cmcs. Creature slots being both creatures themselves and creature token makers. It's only at common because at higher rarities it's a free for all.
• When things are listed as colorless, that means any combination of artifacts and lands. The set file contains 6 lands and 8 artifacts innately, but feel free to shift these colorless cards both between types. Additionally, they can be moved up and down in rarities in the below examples with little impact on the overall breakdown.
• If you're going for a high gold set build, just, y'know, grab whatever monocolour art suits your fancy and slap some extra colours on there. Try to make sure to grab an even number from each colour, though.
