I am busy working on a card game for the forum! But, I am low on creative juice and need some help with ideas. Here's what you can know: - I need ideas for a 52 card deck of cards using characters from the Buffyverse.
- Which character should be on the cards, per suit (hearts, diamonds, spades and clubs? i.e - jack, queen, king, ace (that's 16 characters)
This will be a simple card game, played directly on the forum in a post-based manner! |

Here is my list. I am going by the traditional poker rules in terms of suit order (Spades are higher than Hearts, Hearts higher than Diamonds, Diamonds higher than Clubs)
Jack of Spades: Spike
Queen of Spades: Buffy
King of Spades: Angel
Ace of Spades: Faith
Buffy and Angel are metaphorically the Queen and King of the Buffyverse. And no I don’t mean in terms of Bangel or some shipping crap. They each have headlined their own show, so simple reason really. Spike and Faith are with them, because together the four of them are easily the 4 most popular Buffyverse characters.
Jack of Hearts: Wesley
Queen of Hearts: Willow
King of Hearts: Xander
Ace of Hearts: Cordelia
I then looked at which two characters from both shows meant the most to the two leads? Naturally, Xander, Willow, Wesley and Cordelia were obvious choices. The four of them are also in the most Buffyverse episodes, along with Buffy and Angel, and are the respective “hearts” of both shows.
Jack of Diamonds: Gunn
Queen of Diamonds: Anya
King of Diamonds: Giles
Ace of Diamonds: Fred/Illyria
Next I just looked at the next set of characters that were on both shows the most.
Jack of Clubs: Lorne
Queen of Clubs: Dawn
King of Clubs: Connor
Ace of Clubs: Tara
Pretty much the same deal here, next set of most active characters.
And this was fun! I love me some cards.

Put it to the members to design a deck (or rough draft) and then we can conduct a vote?? Just a possible suggestion...i know how much you have to do already. |

Wait, is this gonna be an online game? That's what it sounds like by what you said in the first post. How are we gonna play cards directly on the forum?
