Introduction


Aura Clash is a collaborative, high-flying, martial arts deckbuilding game in an eastern fantasy setting where humans can enhance their body with chi, the essence of life. This aura of chi forms a layer of colorful light around the Martial Artist that enhances their durability, strength, and speed. Chi can even be emitted from the body as a ranged attack, converting the user’s excess vitality into searing energy blasts.

However playing as a Chi-harnessing Martial Artist means more than just honorable duels, prestige-raising tournaments, and heavy training montages; dangerous beasts and spirits prowl the wilderness hunting for any source of chi as well, and humans are first on the menu. Not every fight will be a fair contest of skill when gargantuan monsters find your village.

To protect against this threat millennia ago, those who train in the art of combat chi adopted the practice of forming collaborative combat Sects, each carving out their own territory. Yet their greatest asset became their greatest threat, for without external enemies the Sects turned on each other in constant rivalries, espionage, and outright war.
