TRINITAS–
Trinitas is Latin for Trinity. This is a direct reference to the Holy Trinity of God and to believe is vital in the fight against evil.

ADVERSARIUS–
Adversarius is Latin for Adversary. This is a direct reference to the Devil being our adversary against the Grace of God.

The Blessing Symbol that is used in the game is known as The Jerusalem Cross, or Crusader’s Cross. The symbol is a renown Christian symbol featuring a large central cross surrounded by four smaller crosses, representing Jesus Christ’s spread through the four corners of the world, the Five Wounds of Jesus, and Christ’s four Evangelists (Matthew, Mark, Luke, John) spreading the Gospel from Jerusalem. It was the emblem of the Kingdom of Jerusalem from the 13th century and symbolizes faith, pilgrimage, and the call to share Christianity globally.

The Chi-Rho is one of the oldest and most important symbols in Christianity, representing Jesus Christ. It is formed by combining the first two Greek letters of the word Christos (“Christ”) Chi (Χ) and Rho (Ρ) into a single monogram. In the Catholic Church, the Chi-Rho symbolizes Christ’s presence, victory over sin and death through His death and resurrection, and His kingship. It is commonly found on church furnishings, liturgical vestments, altars, stained glass, and sacred artwork as a reminder of the central role of Jesus Christ in the Christian faith.
In game the symbol means a card remains active the entire game, thus symbolizing God’s rule being infinite and eternal.

INTERCESSORS–
An intercessor is someone who prays, pleads, or intervenes on behalf of another person, group, or nation, acting as another source to seek divine help or favor as one who is in Grace with God. They take on burdens and petition God, as seen in the Old Testament with figures like Moses in the desert or New Testament like The Virgin Mary in the wedding at Cana.

MARTYRS–
A martyr is someone who suffers or dies for their faith in Jesus Christ, refusing to deny their beliefs even under persecution, and is seen as a “witness” to Christ and His Holy Church, echoing His sacrifice. Originating from the Greek word mártys (witness), early martyrs like St. Stephen died for testifying to Jesus Christ, becoming powerful symbols of unwavering faith, with martyrdom seen as a path to sainthood.

HOLY RELICS–
A holy relic is an object of Holy significance, often a physical remnant (like bone, hair, or clothing) or possession of a saint or Jesus Christ, preserved for veneration to feel closer to God. Holy relics are categorized with 3 categories:

First-Class: A part of the saint’s body (bone, blood, flesh) or a fragment directly from Jesus’ Passion.

Second-Class: An item that a saint regularly used, like clothing, a book, or a personal possession.

Third-Class: An object that has touched a first-class relic, or that a saint touched directly (contact relics).

A sacred place is a location revered for Holiness serving as a focus for worship, pilgrimage, or historical significance, whether naturally occurring (like a mountain) or man-made (like a temple).
