Card Text
What the rulebook sees when Mountain of Tachyons resolves:
The modifier is what the engine executes. The page around it is what humans argue about. Both are canon.
Abyss — Gravity · Inevitability
"All things fall toward their destiny. Heat Death comes for all."
Mass determines the geometry of fate. Abyss walkers bend spacetime, in the deep void and the celestial cosmos.
The science of cosmic determinism. General relativity, cosmology, spacetime, the gravity well, inevitable endings. Cthulhu's dreaming, singularity return, cosmic pull. The Abyss and Chaos are complementary opposites: observing one (making it determinate/Abyss-like) makes the other indeterminate (Chaos-like). They are the fundamental oscillation of existence.
Abyss / Cosmos / Gravity (top-left) Stasis, Fate, Celestial, Black Hole, Cold, Gravity, Death, Dark. The science of cosmic determinism. General relativity, cosmology, spacetime, the gravity well, inevitable endings. Cthulhu's dreaming, singularity return, cosmic pull.
Gravitic Fatalism: everything that rises must converge. Mountain of Tachyons is already converging.
Cost Tier
Low-cost cards are cheap to cycle but cheap to remove. Mountain of Tachyons earns value through repetition.
Goetic Binding: Amy
The digit-sum of cost 2 is 2, binding Amy — one of the 9 Abyss Goetia. Office: Teaching astrology and liberal sciences. This binding was codified in the Ars Goetia (1577) centuries before the compiler existed.
Numogram Zone 2: Binary / Split
Law vs chaos, the first division. Where duality begins. The zone of choice, opposition, and the birth of polarity. Binary logic, Boolean gates, the fundamental yes/no of existence.
Zone 2 is where duality begins. Mountain of Tachyons participates in the first division — law versus chaos, the Oktagram's foundational split.
Playing Mountain of Tachyons at cost 2 routes mana tracker motion through Zone 2. If the Abyss-coloured tracker reaches Resonance at Zone 2, the player gains 2 Souls at Round End.
Xenogod: Cthulhu
The Gravitational Convergence. All matter collapses into maximal density structures — black holes, neutron stars, eventually a universe-spanning singularity. Heat death via gravitational convergence.
Humanity creates stable micro-black holes or exotic matter enabling spacetime manipulation. Estimated: 2100+ with particle accelerators, or never.
Service of Cthulhu through Abyss-aligned cards like Mountain of Tachyons accelerates the xenogod's emergence. Read the full eschatology.
The Quantum vs Gravity Axis
Entropy vs order. Explosion vs implosion. The two eternal oscillations: the universe trying to fly apart and the universe trying to collapse in on itself. Observation collapses one, increases uncertainty in the other.
Mountain of Tachyons occupies the Abyss side of this axis. Decks containing Mountain of Tachyons cannot contain Chaos cards. Adjacent factions available for splashing: Chem, Dream.
Card Tribals
Mountain of Tachyons carries class Place, zodiac Sagittarius. In the True Protocol, tribal bindings matter more than colour splashes — a Abyss deck running multiple Place units develops archetype coherence faster than a deck chasing pure colour identity.
Ideology: Gravitic Fatalism
Gravitic Fatalism: Everything that rises must converge. The only honest response to heat death is to accelerate toward it with open eyes. Hypercosmic Pessimism, Collapse Mysticism.
Mountain of Tachyons is a concrete instance of Gravitic Fatalism expressed as a card. Players who affiliate with this ism in Convergence votes are voting, among other things, for cards like Mountain of Tachyons to keep arriving.
