That has got to be the ugliest unicorn I've ever seen, and I've seen a lot of unicorns in my time!
Just with the wording on Behemoth, Seeing as he's an evil character, aka a blocker, he himself cannot be blocked. Maybe rewording it to "Withdraw all human heroes", "You may choose an angel to rescue", etc- or simply, "cannot be attacked by humans" :)
I do think that Leviathan being able to discard a site or fortress each upkeep is a little too OP. Maybe make it underdeck instead of discard?
Hey, sorry to steal your limelight Isaac, but I made a Job card of my own. Here it is, I hope you like it! If you want to take my idea and make it your own to fit the theme you've got going, feel free! After all, this is your thread. 8)

EDIT: I had to remove my card from this post as the link was showing the wrong picture for some reason
Haha, no problem! I like it! I don't think the second ability is the best way to go, because there is no reason to do that. Why no just go in with Job? Maybe it's ability could be "During your upkeep or discard phase, you may banish this card to search deck or discard pile for Job or draw two. When blocked in battle, you may banish this card to discard a random card from opponent's hand or an evil card from his territory to add Job to battle. cannot be negated." this way, you are doing something other than just adding him to battle.
Plus, isn't the implication that they were a little debauched to be Heroes?

Actually, that's a good question.
From Job 1:4-5 (NIV)
'His sons used to hold feasts in their homes on their birthdays, and they would invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them. When a period of feasting had run its course, Job would make arrangements for them to be purified. Early in the morning he would sacrifice a burnt offering for each of them, thinking, “Perhaps my children have sinned and cursed God in their hearts.” This was Job’s regular custom.'
There are at least 2 ways that I can see this could be interpreted as. Either Job made sacrifices for them because of their behaviour, or Job made sacrifices for them because of the way he thought that they might have thought. It's a good thing to point out,and it would be nice to know other people's thoughts on that. Thanks Pol :)

In light of this, I thought I'd also make an evil character alternative!
Job's Children 7/3 Brown Territory Class EC
"At any time, you may banish this card to search deck or discard pile for Job, search deck for a Job card, or draw 2. Cannot be negated while a demon is in battle."
What do you think?

I really like that, and it goes along perfectly with 4 new cards that i just made! :D ^
Also, i'm adding your card to the top post cause i like it so much!
very nice i like a mighty wind and fire from the heavens.

Yes, fire from the heavens is brutal! I love it :)
I love these new enhancements all up. At first I was a little underwhelmed by Sabean attack, but after reading over a few times and sorting out stuff in my brain, it's a actually a pretty cool and biblically thematic card. The way I have interpreted it as working upon reflection is essentially this:
Practically there are two scenarios here:
Either 1 hero is in battle or there is more than 1 hero in battle. Obviously, at least 1 of those heroes needs to be a human.
a) The way the last part of the ability is worded, "Opponent may withdraw 1", leads me to believe that if their is only one human hero in battle, opponent may discard it or withdraw it, so knowing the importance of having heroes to rescue with, it's essentially a "withdraw opponent's hero" in that situation.
b)With more than 1 hero in battle, it essentially works as: "Opponent may withdraw 1 human hero. Discard all human heroes in battle."
Is this how you intend it to work? If not, how would it work?

And just some things on 3 of the older cards:
1. Question: With Job's Wife, does she do the decrease as X/X or 0/X?
2. Thought: I think it would be appropriate for Leviathan to be Cannot be negated. That way, if Job uses him as an enhancement while coliseum is up, he can use his toss ability to maximum effect, inflicting 14 damage on the opponent. Even though biblically, it was practically impossible for a man to kill the leviathan, tossing Leviathan I think is symbolic of his insane strength, as you wouldn't want the Leviathan to come charging at you in anger!
3. Suggestion: Just being a bit nit-picky here, but I think a clearer way of wording the last part of Job's Friends' ability would be something like this: "After each block, decrease this card by 1/2." That way it is clear when the decrease happens, and for formalities sake I would put 'decrease this card' in place of 'decrease him', as it's a group of 'hims', not just one him. This would have Job's Friends read like this:
"Withdraw all but 1 hero in battle. Negate banding and enhancements. After each block, decrease this card by 1/2."
The ability hasn't changed, it's just a little cleaner. Maybe you could even add the identifier 'Generic Male'? 8)
3.I know that a lot of people want it to be CBN, for the colesium toss, but i'm just not completely sold on that idea. i was thinking more of a peace deck with him when i designed him.
4. Thanks for pointing that out, that wording is a little confusing. And i don't think there is any reason not to add that identifier, except that they would then get discarded by a mighty wind. So, consider it done.
Sword of Punishment and Job Overcomes are broken beyond salvaging, but I like the rest (especially Boils).
Yes, boils is my favourite. I also share Pols views on Sword of Punishment and Job Overcomes being broken/OP. I don't know how to fix them up, though.Yeah, i kinda thought that when i posted this... :P
