Hope you all love her guys... this is my only hope... I'm a little bit surprised and a little bit sad cause I thought to have the possibility to present her in an article as happened in other "palyer cards"... anyway tomorrow i will write an article for the forum about that to explain how much love i put in this card and to explain the feeling about loving this game...

She is short and slim with long brown hair and green eyes.

I love Meerita

Beautifully designed card: complex, interesting and captures the feel from the books... Congrats!

Thanks for creating a Meera <3

And a well designed card, methinks. Well done, Andrea!

Goes very very well with House Stark. great card Gualdo

woot more house stark shadows cards!

Very nice - text blanking is always helpful.

I really, really like this card. I also find it appropriate that Tiziano did the art for it, and holy cow what a job of it! That is some amazing artwork. Anyone else thinking about using Hidden Chambers + Winter with this? Seems really appropriate, of course. Actually, that's an interesting question - does that lower the cost by 1 of her still, making her free to bring out of shadows? I suppose the framework would not allow you to choose her to die to a military claim and then use her text to put her back into shadows (and then Hidden Chambers her back into play for free), but this seems ultimately like a really strong and fun card. Good job Gualdo!

Nope. Hidden chambers doesn't reduce her cost.

Anyway, wonderful card, Gualdo. Beautiful artwork, too.

Very cool card, House Stark is always welcomed! Artwork is astounding.

Are you sure about this? I thought I remembered a Ktom ruling from earlier (and I'm in a hurry so no time to search the forum) referring to Ser Mandon Moore (and similarly Jaquen and now Meera). I was unaware any distinction had been made between the Shadows Phase "bring out" and these three cards Triggered Abilities: abilities, at least one comparable to the difference between "play" and "put into play."

Each player has the option of bringing one card out of his or her Shadows area each phase. When a card is brought out of Shadows in this manner, the non-Shadows portion of its gold cost (the number printed after the “s” in the card’s cost), as well as any applicable gold penalties, is paid, or the card cannot come out of Shadows.

King's Landing No attachments. If it is Winter, reduce the cost to bring your cards out of Shadows by 1. If it is Summer,return Hidden Chambers to your hand.

Any phase: Bring Jaqen H'ghar out of Shadows by paying the rest of his cost to choose 1 non-Army character in an opponent's dead pile that was killed this phase, and attach it to Jaqen H'ghar as a duplicate. Jaqen H'ghar gains the printed text, base STR, icons, traits and crests of that card. If that duplicate leaves play, retunr Jaqen H'ghar to Shadows.

Challenges: Bring Ser Mandon Moore out of Shadows and into play by paying the rest of his gold cost . Response: After you win a challenge in which Ser Mandon Moore participated as the defender,choose and kill a participating character.

Any phase: Bring Meera Reed out of Shadows and into play by paying the rest of his cost ...

Double Post.

Great job Gualdo! But how did you know what I need in my deck?!

Quite sure. I asked this very thing on the rules board a while back, and that was ktom's answer . I'll admit that I harbored some lingering doubts still, so I sent the question to Nate:

Rule Question:
Does Hidden Chambers (City of Secrets) reduce the cost to bring Jaqen H'Ghar (Forging the Chain) or Ser Mandon Moore (The Battle of Blackwater Bay) out of Shadows when using their character ability?

and got the following reply:

No, he these cards reduce the cost of the game mechanism of bringing a card out of Shadows, not the cost of card effects that bring cards out of Shadows.

Somewhat questionable grammar there, if you ask me, but a clear-cut answer anyhow.

Pretty straight forward. I do wish they put some forethought into the possibly differences they might use to distinguish just such a scenario. :/

Very strong card for Stark, but I am a bit saddened by all the Brotherhood hate.

If you read ktom's explanation (at least i think that's the thread where he explained it in detail to me) it actually makes a lot of sense.

~Still waiting for the day ktom profits off of the blind faith in his words

As for Brotherhood hate. This card "hates" just about everything. I don't think you can just highlight one theme and leave out the rest.

Strong card, although I would've wished for an "except for Traits" part in the ability.

Yeah, I thought the same. Frozen Moat blanks traits too, maybe it's a Stark thing?

<insert some quote about how unforgiving the North is, and how the southrons are unprepared for it's difficulties.

Looks good, Gualdo! She is one of the characters that I've had on my own wish list to see in the LCG. I'd like to see a card for her father as well. Perhaps some day. I'm glad you chose to do a unique character. The more uniques in this game, the happier I am.

FATMOUSE said:

Lots of Stark things around lately...

No, I think the card is great and I love the art although the card is not played yet and one can only make assumptions it will probably hurt the main themes of the two latest cycles (recurring trait blanking kills a lot of maester chains and prevents brotherhood from gaining power) but that's just some random thought.

Anyway congrats to Gualdo and Tiziano!

i totally agree: great card.

excellent design (strong, you have to think about how to use it, balanced)

boosting house stark that could need a boost anyway (though not one of my favorites)

good choice of a cool character

the usual high level artwork by tiziano

btw: you will have the chance to have gualdo and tiziano sign this card and prints of it at the Tourney of Stahleck!!

VERY nice Gualdo! I love the card!

~Now can we finally get a Lanni or Martell champ card someday and stop giving Stark/Bara so much love
