Create your own reality. Fry your own brain.

Tres Elegante.

Considering the nature of the game, I decided it might be interesting to make a deck about a person who was so totally invested in imposing their own will upon the virtual world, that they were willing to sacrifice reality for it. This theme has already been hinted at in cards like #Liberated Chela, #Temple of the Liberated Mind, #Maya, and the like (I only own Maya, out of these), and seems to be especially affiliated with Shaper. And no, don't try living the way that #Reille "Kit" Peddler does, but she IS an interesting character!

The strategy behind the deck is that you really only need four cards in your rig: #Magnum Opus, #Paintbrush, #Torch, and anything that gives at least +1MU, especially #The Toolbox. Then, by running often, or by tinkering, or by exposing cards to see whether or not you can run into them safely, you should be able to Paint the Town Code Gate. If you need more actions, you can always get #Amped Up and fry your brain (I don't own #hyperdriver yet, although it would of course be a great inclusion), or if you prefer exploring the unknown world of facedown ice, you can just #Overmind it.

The replacement of reality with fiction is rounded out by #Artist Colony, #Film Critic, #Trope and Paparazzi. With proper feeding (#Fan Site), you can get your rig out EVEN FASTER. I've never actually used Paparazzi, but it just went with the theme so well! #Trope unintentionally allows you to tinker more often, recur #Overmind, recur any other cards that may have been trashed by non-code gates, or if you want, just FRY YOUR BRAIN EVEN MORE!!!!!
