Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. How many different 'Armor Thrull' cards are there in 'Fallen Empires'?

Answer: 4

There are four different 'Armour Thrull' cards, with drawings from Scott Kirschner, Jeff A. Menges, Ron Spencer and Pete Venters.
2. How many Rare cards (Uncommon 1; U1) are in the 'Fallen Empires' set?

Answer: 36

There are 36 U1 cards in this set. The designation 'Rare' was used to depict the most rare cards since the 4th Edition. 'Normal' Uncommons are 'U3'. 'Fallen Empires' also has has several U2 cards.
3. Which artist did not make any drawings for the Non-Basic Lands in 'Fallen Empires'?

Answer: Douglas Shuler

Alas, Shuler did not draw any of those lands. He remains my favourite artist, followed by Mark Poole and Susan van Camp, whom I have both briefly met at a convention once. Mark Poole drew the 'Sacrifice lands', Pat Morrissey drew the 'Storage lands' and Kaja Foglio drew the 'Rainbow Vale'.
4. What is the name of the Thrull Master Breeder?

Answer: Endrek Sahr

His name is found in many flavor texts from Thrull Cards.
5. What type of card is 'Hymn to Tourach'?

Answer: Sorcery

The Hymn is a Sorcery and possibly the most wanted card from the 'Fallen Empires' set. Having an opponent discarding two cards at random for just two black mana surely is nice, but the fact that it is a Sorcery card only allows you to cast it during your own turn.
6. What is the name of the followers of Tourach?

Answer: Order of the Ebon Hand

The followers of Tourach, the Order of the Ebon Hand, were the arch-enemy of Icatia's Order of Leithbur. Thrulls were creatures, created for sacrifice by the Order of the Ebon Hand and Thallids are forest dwelling creatures.
7. Similar to cards like 'Lord of Atlantis' and 'Goblin King', one of the races in 'Fallen Empires' has a hero that gives all members of that race a +1/+1 bonus. Which race is this?

Answer: Thrulls

The 'Thrull Champion' grants +1/+1 to all Thrulls. By tapping it you can gain control of a target Thrull. Unlike 'Lord of Atlantis', 'Goblin King' or 'Zombie Master', the Thrull Champion is a 'Summon Thrull' rather than a 'Summon Lord' and thus he receives the bonus as well.

The other races/empires in 'Fallen Empires' include Dwarves, Goblins, Merfolk, Icatians (including followers of Leithbur and Farrel), followers of Tourach and Thallids.
8. Who is quoted for the 'Hand of Justice's flavor text ("The Hand of Justice will come to cleanse the world if we are true")?

Answer: Oliver Farrel

Farrel was a priest of Icatia. After the fall of Trokair, the Empire's citadel, he broke ties with Icatia and the Order of Leithbur and became a vigilant together with his followers. They both battled the rest of Icatia and the Order of the Ebon Hand.
9. What is name of the famous Icatian Scout?

Answer: Ailis Connaut

Ailis Connaut is mentioned in many flavor texts as being a brave scout, who scouted enemy positions to avoid surprise attacks by Orcish and Goblin Raiders. Oliver Farrel was an Icatian Priest who broke ties with Icatia, Jherana Rure was the Commander of the Counter-Insurgency (probably part of the Order of the Ebon Hand) and Lydia Wynforth was the Mayor of Trokair.
10. How many different Orcs are present in 'Fallen Empires'?

Answer: 4

There are four types of Orcs: 'Brassclaw Orcs', 'Orcish Captain', 'Orcish Spy' and 'Orcish Veterans'.
11. What power and toughness does the 'Hand of Justice' have?

Answer: 2/6

The 'Hand of Justice' has a power and toughness of 2/6. That, partially, makes the card pretty expensive, namely 5 colourless and 1 White Mana. That high casting cost makes it a little impractical to play.
12. Which of the following races are not each other's adversaries?

Answer: Orcs/Goblins

Homarids invaded the Merfolk realms of Vodalia, Thrulls staged a rebellion and overthrew the Order of the Ebon Hand and Orcs and Merfolk were traditional enemies. Orcs and Goblins traditionally co-operated, mostly against Merfolk, Icatians and Dwarves.
13. Which of the following was a Merfolk Military Commander?

Answer: Marshall Volnikov

Ivra Jursdotter is quoted as an enemy of Vodalia, possibly Orc (see flavor texts from 'Vodalian Soldiers' by Jeff A. Menges and 'Goblin Grenade' by Dan Frazier), Pashadar Dirf was a Goblin Flotilla Commander, who was killed when he underestimated the Magical powers of the Vodalian Mage (see 'Vodalian Mage' by Mark Poole) and General Khurzog was an Orcish General ('Orcish Spy' by Pete Venters). Volnikov was quoted on 'Vodalian Soldiers' by Richard Kane-Ferguson.
14. What is the activation cost for the special ability of the 'Elvish Scout'?

Answer: 1 green mana, tap

It lets you untap an attacking creature you control. Usefull if the other player increases the power of his/her blocking creature in order to kill your attacker.
15. What is the cost to use the 'Night Soils' ability?

Answer: 1 colourless mana

For one mana you can remove two creatures in any graveyard and put Saproling tokens into the game, which can be used by 'Elvish Farmer' and 'Thallid Devourer'.
16. What tokens are created by cards like 'Thallid', 'Thallid Devourer', 'Elvish Farmer' and 'Night Soil'?

Answer: Saproling

The Saproling Tokens are 1/1 green creatures. In combination with 'Fungal Bloom' a player can create a whole horde of these creatures. Throw in a 'Rampage' and your enemy can start packing. They can also be used to bolster the power/toughness of 'Thallid Devourer' (+1/+2 until end of turn for every sacrificed token) or to gain life through 'Elvish Farmer' (2 life for every sacrificed token). Saproling tokens would re-enter Magic in later cardsets (around Urza's Saga) with 'Verdant Force' and 'Greener Pastures'.
17. What kind of counters can be distributed to Thallids using the 'Fungal Bloom'?

Answer: Spore

Spore counters are used by 'Thallid', 'Thallid Devourer', 'Feral Thallid', 'Elvish Farmer', 'Spore Flower' and 'Thorn Thallid'.
18. What Green card lets you turn all your forests into 2/3 creatures until end of turn?

Answer: Thelonite Druid

The Monk can turn a basic land into a basic forest by sacrificing a green creature. The Chant damages players who put Swamps into play and the Curse forces players to pay a Blue mana for every Blue creature they wish to untap during the untap phase.
19. What kind of tokens are put into play by 'Homarid Spawning Bed'?

Answer: Camarid Tokens

Homarid Tokens do not exist, Thrull Tokens are created by the 'Breeding Pit' and 'Saproling Tokens' by 'Elvish Farmer', 'Thallid', 'Thallid Devourer' and 'Night Soil'.
20. Which Goblin card does not belong into the list?

Answer: Goblin Grenade

The Grenade is a sorcery, the others are Enchantments.
21. What is activation cost to sacrifice the 'Icatian Moneychanger' and gain life for the credit counters?

Answer: None

It costs nothing but it can only be done during your upkeep.
22. What special ability or abilities can the 'Icatian Infantry' receive?

Answer: Banding and First Strike

Both Banding (back then 'Bands') and First Strike can be activated by paying one colourless mana for each of the abilities.
23. There are Artifact Creatures in 'Fallen Empires'.

Answer: False

'Fallen Empires' only has normal Artifacts.
24. How many Artifact type cards are in 'Fallen Empires' (both normal Artifacts and Artifacs creatures, if present)?

Answer: 11

Most artifacts in 'Fallen Empires' require sacrificing it or discarding a card at random to use.
25. What symbol is used for the 'Fallen Empires' set?

Answer: A crown

It's a small black crown. A gate is used for 'Stronghold', the globe is used for 'Homelands' and the sword stands for 'Arabian Nights'. I hope you enjoyed the quiz.
