MP11-2 Background Research for Designing a new Magic Card

I chose these two cards because of the types of character they are. They are both flying attack birds, and this is the type of character that I see as a valuable asset when battling. Birds give a good vantage point when battling because they can attack from the sky, and there are little defense systems that work against sky attacks. So I design my character or magic card, I plan to make it some kind of flying character.

Recreation of Character card:
Name: Bird of Death
Creature: Bird
Type: Flying 
Details: Very rare character. Once it enters the battlefield, it slowly disables opposing characters by negating their health. If attacked upon, it will automatically attack back. There is no sole character that can take this creature down. You must put your whole combat team in to this. If you do so, you leave yourself vulnerable to ground attack. This is a win/win for character owner

MP11-1 Blog Posting

When I create my portfolio, I am to gather material based on the graphic design side. I want to go in to the graphic design field because that is how my mind works. I enjoy designing logos and names and all of those things. I would include work that I have done. I would gather pictures or designs that I have changed or altered. I would also include designs that I have personally made. I would show my best possible work, and try to display all the hard work I have put in. I will show the different variations of a certain design to show how I have an open mind and can really create the best graphic design possible.

MP10-1 Maze Game Pitch

Overview:

For our maze, there are two separate areas to start. One area consists of two players competing for a spot in the next round. The opposite area is the identical. Each player starts at the same time and there are certain checkpoints that need to be reached. There are booby traps and dead ends all over the place so each player much choose wise with ever turn. Once a player reaches a checkpoint he or she is granted with one advantage. The player is not made aware of this advantage until he or she reaches the next level. Once a player reaches the next level they are granted there advantages. These advantages are in the form of weapons, armor, potions, perks or magic. Once each player reaches the middle of the area inside of a volcano, they must battle to death for the key to their release. But once the player eliminates the other, the battle is only half over. The player must then truck down the volcano into changing environments where many creatures and deadly traps await. If or when the player achieves freedom they no longer have to precipitate in the battle again. Their family and relatives are always granted freedom with their victory.

Reason for Creation:

The reason behind the making of this game is the fantasies of the King of Tex. The King believes his city is over populated, so, he forces his citizens to enter their names in a draft every month in order to keep the births and deaths at an even stand still. The city is divided into 4 quadrants, the Guardians, Artisans, Engineers, and Poets. One member of each quadrant is selected to participate in the game and if he or she refuses to enter, they are exiled from the city for life along with their family and relatives, no questions asked.

Walk Through:

Each player starts with the same advantages with the player they are facing. Once the alarm sounds, its game time! The first environment they face is the wilderness. Where any and all animals reside along with traps and dead ends. If both players survive the first environment, they move onto the mist. The mist depends on instinct alone, there are no traps animals or any harm dealt, but if the player makes a wrong turn, they could be wondering forever. The third environment is the harsh winter. This is wear the advantages of reaching checkpoints come sin handy. The more checkpoints you reach the more advantages, such as clothes and food. After a winner is crowned from each segment, now comes the time fore the race up the volcano. Once each player reaches the confines of the volcano, they battle to the death for the possession of the key which leads them to freedom, so to say. Once a player retains the key they must truck back through the three environments once more to gain freedom.
