CYOTC busies himself with decorations in his dorm room. Most of them are some form of poster. Some of them are some form of mini-statue. All of them are incredibly tasteful.

Like all other sensible teenagers he procrastinates his project until the very last minute and sensibly passes over the advice to use this time for the likes of "deck creation".

Séance spends the bit of free time making sure the purple candle lights, tomes, sundial clock, and dreamcatchers are put into place. She din't have time to put her books away last night on account of videochatting with her sister and putting her sheets on the bed. Her deck has mostly been together since the core was released. On account of... Anyway, best get to class now.

Day 2 - CYOGTCG Science
With that, you are given you schedule for today
Assembly
CYOGTCG Science
CYOGTCG Math
Lunch (and playing CYOGTCG)
CYOGTCG History
CYOGTCG Art

(Also of note, I'll be merging Science and Chemistry, since that's how it has always been in my schools, and gives more things to do with Science class)
and thus you head to your first class, CYOGTCG Science. As you arrive the class is empty. Well, not empty certainly, there are mysterious devices all over surrounding the borders of the room, including the device that had been used to determine your theme. Rather it's empty of people, the teacher seems to be absent. You all take your seats and then...

KRAKATHOOM
The sound of thunder. Wichtel jumps, scrabbling under her chair.

"WELCOME STUDENTS!" a woman's voice speaks "TO YOUR DOO- wait wrong script."
A shuffling of papers is heard
"TO MY LABORATORY! MUAHAHAHAHAHAA!"

A woman with frazzled dark hair, pale skin, and a white lab coat descends from the ceiling on a platform behind the teachers desk. Glenn would recognize her from offhand comments from his parents. This woman goes by Doctor Malady, a self styled mad scientist(well, self styled scientist, the mad part not so much)

"I am DOCTOR MALADY, and today, you are going to be learning !!SCIENCE!!... they didn't let me rename the class."

Today, you learn about Triggers. Triggers are, effectively, the situation in which a cards effect activates. In particular, today you've learned the Combat trigger. Having a Combat trigger means that whatever effect the card has will trigger when it enters combat. As this is theoretically allows repeated activations with the right keywords or supporting cards, it tends to leave cards notably weaker, at least on the Attack front. Of course, all this explanation is told through analogies about various forms of "ray", in comparison to a simple deathray.

As an example of this, she fires her "delayed explosion ray". Shortly after, she realizes which ray she just fired, and you are evacuated from the classroom. Still, you get the chance to make a card using what you learned before the classroom was set to explode.

You can now force your card to have an effect that triggers from combat.

websim.ai is coming dangerously close to being able to run Gridhood. Maybe I'll live to see the day if I exercise, eat right, and somehow convince the world's governments not to nuke everyone.

Dagon chuckles, remaining in the hall, looking into the Science class for a few moments more as Malady scrambles. From a safe distance of course. "Amusing." He comments with a light smile, "You've given me the perfect idea for a new card, as soon as we become more powerful." For now he lazily meanders in the general direction of math, forming a creation from the dreams he had in the tower last night.

At the end of the turn…

(Actual question to the GM, do we PM you if we want our mechanic to be introduced into the card, as well as can we determine the specifics of the new mechanic?)

(( I've kinda feel like steering the GM's decisions for making your cards beyond the given templates is against the spirit of the game. But it's no hill I'd die one. ))

(Depends what you are referring to. You don't get to choose what mechanics get used in the card beyond what is listed in the sheet. Unless you're choosing to introduce a special resource to your deck for the first time)

Personally, I would actively punish players who are abusing the system. There's a reason I recommended that players do not tell me what they want out of their card designs in my own game.
