Well, the DC: Origins is upon us (well, most of us) ... so lets get the Easter Egg hunt started. I don' t a lot of the physical cards in hand.. but I do know that the 2 Face has a foil varient on the flavor text. What else have you guys been able to figure out?

I don't know if they're really Easter Eggs, but The Demon: Etrigan's effect text is written in rhyme form which is really cool.
-The characters Thunder and Lightning have flavor text that continues from one to the other.
-Just naming the counter plot twist Fizzle was enough to get a laugh out of me.

Anyone have those Two-Face texts? I am so curious...

it involves coin flipping, i know that

i saw a guy use it at origins but i cant rememebr the text



alls i know is teen titans are gonna OWN

I am not sure yet, but the test from Rigged Elections is from Bush's acceptance speech into office.

...LOL.

Twin Firearms refers to Dual Sidearms' flavour text.

Two-Face (non holo)
“If the unmarked face comes up, he goes free"

Two-Face (holo)
“If it’s the scarred face, he dies here.”


Twin Firearms
“No, seriously. Additional firepower is never, ever a bad idea.”

Time for some DBase easter eggs! Whee!!!
(Ok, so they're not really easter eggs, but I was bored and just like to point out what people are oblivious to)
Gismo doesn't have his text typed in.
That's all for this edition of the VSRealms DBase easter eggs!
*Loud explosions and lots of smoke all around whilist I disappear so as I don't get caught in the random riot of VS system players that are being super annoyed by this one action-packed sentence*

Oh, and the TF-DS connection is kinda cheesy. It'd be especially more if you could wield both of 'em on one character.

This is not really an Easter Egg but a while back, cdaniel, zaxx, novastar, myself and some others get into a discussions on various threads regarding negating effects.

Most people use the term 'fizzle' from MtG terminology. But some argue that it should not apply in VS. Interestingly enough, cdaniel, pointed out that 'fizzle' is outdated and no longer used in MtG. And there were always comments like 'effects don't fizzle... they are negated' or 'it should be resolve without effect... not fizzle'.

Well... now with DC... PT effects CAN 'Fizzle'... heh. I wonder since the UDE team has many MtG vets on their staff, if they named that card as an inside joke.

One of the interesting things from the DC rules supplement they had at Origins. . . under 'Fizzle' they said (paraphrasing since I don't have the handout in front of me) "'Fizzle' is not a game term."

:)

The flavor text on the card "From the Shadows" fades in from nothingness. That is, unless my card just had a bad print.

If we got any russkies in the house, I'd love to know what Red Star's flavor text reads...

Also, Hawk and Dove's card art fits together to form one picture, Dove on the left, Hawk on the right.

Of course, Thunder and Lightning's card text forms the rhyme "Brothers that strike in a manner frightening... The roar of Thunder, the Crash of Lightning."

Not much of an egg, but I like the fact that the helicopter that's taking off from the Mountain Stronghold is landing on The Shrike.

What about Riddle Me This? I don't know what it means...

What is yellow and writes? There's also a riddle in the picture I don't understand.

yellow and writes?

wouldn't that be a pencil

lmao

Actually i believe that riddle on riddle me this flavor text "What has yellow skin and writes?" is a pencil [the standard, not modern mechanical ones].

The picture riddle i believe refers to bats. their blindness in daylight reflected in "by day they are lost" gave me a clue.
