Power: 1 | Speed: 2 | Rarity: Common | World Region: The Boulder Fields
Origins: Stone Boar is the Earth affinity's tank at the Common level – 1 Power, 2 Speed, built to absorb rather than deal damage. The Boulder Fields produce creatures with unusually dense hide, and Stone Boar has the densest. In a deck that needs a card to take a round without the deck-positioning cost of committing a high-value card, Stone Boar is the answer.
Finishing Move: Rock Hide: Hardens its outer layer to stone density for the duration of the attack. Takes the hit. Doesn't move. The opponent's Power is the Power, but Stone Boar's Power-equivalent is its complete refusal to yield.
Synergy & Rivalry: The sacrifice card in Earth decks – takes a round on purpose to protect deck positioning. Has developed a philosophical kinship with Ice's Snow Pup – the 1/1 understands the 1/2 in ways that more powerful cards cannot.
