Nasuverse Magic: the Gathering and the Nasuverse

[GenocideHeart]

Hmm... well, I just got curious. Due to its very nature, Magic: the Gathering is extremely flexible, as it spans across multiple dimensions with very different rules for magic and mystical stuff.

There do seem to be several parallels between the Nasuverse and Dominia (which is the name given ingame to the multiverse as a whole). The Holy Grail has a function very, very similar to the Mirari, although considerably less perverted (yes, even at maximum corruption, the Holy Grail isn't nearly as malevolent as the Mirari). Also, the way humans produce prana could be likened to what Elves and other creatures can do - produce mana internally, in addition of being able to shape the ambient mana.

There's enough details in common to make the scenario compatible for both, although there'd necessarily be some rule-bending for anything that crosses over on the other side (and this goes for both magic natives and Nasuverse natives). Nothing major though, and it can all be explained by the extraplanar nature of visitors, on both sides.

Any thoughts?

not to hard to picture it happening, i mean Zelritch is pretty much a Naruverse version of a planeswalker already.

MTG is ambigous enough that other then the general concepts of mana established anything can be worked into it as you noted already.

It's just what/why would planewalkers enter/interact with the naruverse for, as there are enough beings in that universe dangerous to even them that it would be a unnesscary risk.

Last I checked, Planeswalkers tend to be attracted by things that are dangerous to them. How many of them were drawn to Otaria by the Mirari's powers, and how many were attracted by the mess the temporal rifts in Time Spiral were causing?

The problem all Planeswalkers have is that for all their power, when they spot something that intrigues them, their common sense disappears faster than a girl's clothes at an orgy.

And at the very least the Holy Grail would attract them. It's an interesting trinket to them. Which makes the concept scary - anyone who'd think of the Grail as a 'trinket' is probably someone best left to their own devices. Too bad 'Walkers have about the same ability to mind their own business and not involve others as the Spanish Inquisition... :snigger:

I could definately see them getting fascinated with the conceptual weaponry some of them use, and the occasional oddball powers like Shiki's eyes of death sight and Shiro's ability to produce weapons from inside his soul. Heck, Shiro's halfway to being a planeswalker already. He's already got reality control-powers, and his ascention could very well be what triggers the crossover, when one of the older planeswalkers notices and decides to mentor him.

I wouldn't be surprised if the first thing he did after his ascention was to resummon Saber, either.
