Cardmancer rules
* Each card costs 10x mana to summon as its cp (command point) cost.
* Only basic cards can evolve into a new path.
* It is possible for multiple cards to fuse into a single card upon evolution.
* A new card will always be inferior to an older card with real experience.
* Cards can level and evolve this way. But the most common method is introducing new methods to cards.
* A card can evolve multiple times. It is possible for a card that evolved more than three times to become a respawnable elite. Retaining level and memories before their defeat. But at 5x cp cost.
* Elites are unlocked with every five cardmancer levels. With the first summoned card being a unique boss.
* Unique bosses do not cost cp but have instead a long delay on respawning. (level of boss x cp cost x 12 hours then subtract 1 hour for every level of cardmancer. With a minimum of 12 hours.)
* Boss slots can only be earned with feats. (with the exception of the first)
* 1% of all card earned exp is given to the caster. The card level can not exceed the caster level. In which exp is divided between them evenly.
* Cards given to be used by allies are designated as commanders. Under most circumstances, cards will heed commands of caster over commanders, but not always. Granted subclass commanders ignore this effect.
