Character Card

Oriax Two, Godhacker. The front of the character card carries no rules text of its own; his rules are on its back, transcribed under Godlike Power below.

Godlike Power

Back of the Oriax Two character card. The card's footer reads "ORIAX TWO (TINKERER / ADVANCED)."

Setup: All of your Deities are inactive.
Limited Ante: Activate a Deity.
Desperation: You have Desperation if you have 3 or fewer Deities, whether active or inactive, in play.

The six small Deity cards printed along the bottom of this back are the six Deity cards transcribed under Deities below.
