I don't have Photoshop, but here is my idea:

Star in the Sky

Purple Brigade Enhancement 3/3
Identifier: Based on Prophecy

If holder's Son of God was discarded without being used, shuffle it back into draw pile. If used by a NT purple brigade hero, search deck for any card and add to hand. Cannot be negated.

I don't have an image. I was just thinking the typical scene of the Magi pointing toward the star in the distance with Bethlehem in the horizon.

I also think I will just make it generally Cannot be Negated without restriction. The first part can be used by anyone that has access to purple and it is not OP'd. The second part already has a fairly strict restriction for use.

I also don't have an image... here's my idea:

following the star
no numbers multi-colored enhancement
"If used by the magi, Mary, Joseph, or Shepherds, you may search your draw pile for any card and add it to your hand. Then, discard one card from your hand. Cannot be negated."

EDIT: I found an image I like.  ;D http://howdyyall.com/Christmas/Images/magi.jpg

Try doing what I do, do a goggle search, then switch to images. I usually come up with something good.

Hey, I think I'll participate.  I am one of those without photoshop so here is my idea....
   
"Prince of the Stars"
    abilities: 6/12    brigade:  Orange EC    identifiers: Male, demon   verse:  Revelation 12:4
    Interrupt all fortresses and band into battle all demons in play, cannot be negated.  Enhancements with "pride" in them cannot be negated.
*the card will have an ultra rare border.

*EDIT* I decided morning star was just too confusing (I don't want to confuse betw/ Jesus all caps name and the lower caps one) and the passage referred more to the Babylonian king than Satan.
   I'm not a fan of using Dragon because I don't want to "borrow" from Red Dragon.  I decided to stick with the Prince "lineup" of names.  Also, I liked "seducer of stars" since he talked 1/3 of Heaven into rebelling.

My thoughts on the picture is that a handsome, muscular man is standing on the world with a sword pointing straight out. 
   Hey Will, the closest I could come to what I was thinking is this pic: 
http://www.picsearch.com/info.cgi?q=lucifer&id=WvcgBnhNum_a3kVE5Dt7rCWvkSZIEkOxI-w2ZvMYUmQ&start=221&opt=%26cols%3D4 (http://www.picsearch.com/info.cgi?q=lucifer&id=WvcgBnhNum_a3kVE5Dt7rCWvkSZIEkOxI-w2ZvMYUmQ&start=221&opt=%26cols%3D4)   
It is probably copyrighted, and I wanted him standing on the Earth but oh well, it's late and I'm tired of searching.  At least, you would have an idea if you knew of something better.

My second entry is this:

"star of your gods"
     Evil dominant       verse:  OT: Amos 5:26 or NT: Acts 7:43
 Pull one evil character out of a discard pile and put it into play.

* It has an ultra rare border.

*EDIT*  Hey I think this may be close to what I was thinking:  www.network211.com/images/Centers/worship.jpg
I hope the link works.

"morning star"   or if too confusing  "Dragon of the Stars" (verse for this name: Revelation 12:4)
    abilities: 6/12    brigade:  Orange EC    identifiers: Male, demon   verse:  Isaiah 14: 12-13
    Interrupt all fortresses and band into battle all demons in play, cannot be negated.  Enhancements with "pride" in them cannot be negated.
This might be the most overpowered card I've ever heard of. Do you mean, "interrupt all fortresses and band any number of demons into play from those fortresses?" Because right now he interrupt forts AND bands in all demons from EVERYWHERE. That's... rediculous... :police:

Star over Bethlehem
White/Purple
"Interrupt the battle. If you have at least three Heroes in play, you may remove this card from the game to search your draw pile for a good Dominant and add it to your hand. You may withdraw all heroes from battle. Cannot be negated by an opponent."

I'm sorry, but I don't have photoshop or anything on this computer. :( If you're making cards for us, though, I rather liked this image, (http://www.crystalinks.com/magi.gif) and if you could, please make it with an ultra-rare, gold border, with white text over the image. Thanks! :)

According to the original post, it just has to include "star" in it's theme.

@ FireNinja, I don't think it's overpowered for a couple of reasons.
           1. we have previous cards with band everyone into battle themes.
           2. demons are not overly popular
           3.  there are enough counter-demon cards out there that balances this card.
           4.  you give up initiative
 Actually, I like the card a lot and would love to see it get made.  It fits the verse and orange theme.

the musician's translation:
"Star of Wonder"
Brigade:  Purple Enhancement  Abilities: -/- (none)   
S.A.  Interrupt the game, if used by "The Magi" while "Gifts of the Magi" is active then discard "X" number of evil characters in play.
  "X" = the number of evil enhancements in battle

I think i want to participate :)

My idea is:
"The rejoicing stars"
3/4 multicolor enhancement
S.A.: interrupt the battle.  Shuffle and negate all opponents' artifacts into draw piles.  Search your deck for 2 heroes and place them in your territory.  Prevent the specail ability of the next evil card opponent plays in battle. You may play the next enhancement.  Cannot be negated.
verse: Psalm 147:4

I created this with split altar and gabreal meets zechariah in mind.
