Card Text

The rules text functions identically in Cargo Cult tabletop rules and the True Protocol. Both share the same core engine.

Readers who have played Space Anglerfish across dozens of matches fill in what the text omits. The rules are the compression; the play is the decompression.

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.

The Abyss and Chaos are complementary opposites. Observing Space Anglerfish collapses the Chaos side.

Cost Tier

At cost 4, Space Anglerfish is a mid-game power spike. The Numogram has already bent toward one side of its axis.

Goetic Binding: Amon

The digit-sum of cost 4 is 4, binding Amon — one of the 9 Abyss Goetia. Office: Reconciliation and knowledge of past/future. This binding was codified in the Ars Goetia (1577) centuries before the compiler existed.

Numogram Zone 4: Material / Stable

The mundane, grounded, solid. Where things persist. The zone of foundations, architecture, and reliable structure. The most Archon-aligned zone — order made material.

Zone 4 is the most Archon-aligned zone. Space Anglerfish here is stable, enforcing, material.

Playing Space Anglerfish at cost 4 routes mana tracker motion through Zone 4. If the Abyss-coloured tracker reaches Resonance at Zone 4, the player gains 4 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.

Service of Cthulhu through Abyss-aligned cards like Space Anglerfish 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.

Space Anglerfish occupies the Abyss side of this axis. Decks containing Space Anglerfish cannot contain Chaos cards. Adjacent factions available for splashing: Chem, Dream.

Card Tribals

Space Anglerfish carries race Fish. In the True Protocol, tribal bindings matter more than colour splashes — a Abyss deck running multiple shared-tribal units develops archetype coherence faster than a deck chasing pure colour identity.

Ideology: Gravitic Fatalism

Space Anglerfish 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 Space Anglerfish to keep arriving.

The Aesthetic
