:This is all relatively legible if you understand how to read the varieties of runes used here. My only uncertainty is the numbers. The article says that the attack damage and the HP are both 40, but they are clearly different on the card. There are only two digits shown, a triangle (I will write X) and a boxy thing (I will write Y). The attack damage given is XY, and the HP given is X. If we assume that the attack is indeed 40, then the HP must be 4 (an impossible HP) unless the numbers work in a way I don't understand. It could be that they are written Japanese-style (using 10 instead of 0) and written backwards, so that it has 10 HP, but that is purely conjectural. -[[User:WurdBendur|WurdBendur]] 09:49, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

I had always assumed that the numbers were something more like roman numerals so that the HP would be (triangle) and the attack would be (triangle + vertical thing), which I assumed to mean 50 HP and 60 power because that's more reasonable than any other actual roman numerals interpretation(L and LX in roman numerals). But the actual values could of course be different. [[User:The Golux|The Golux]] 01:28, 29 October 2010 (UTC)
