Deck Description

Still in brainstorming phase!
I want to create a deck that has a kingly theme and focusses on the monarch mechanic from Consipracy and the trio of Crown/Scepter/Throne of Empires. Please suggest everything that comes to your mind when you think of medieval kingdoms. I am especially searching for the less obvious things like Tithe and Royal Decree. Don't care much about what the card actually does, though, flavour is more important here.

This deck will be part of a cycle of decks I plan to be played against each other. My friend has a theme deck with lots of will of the council and council's delimma cards and consequently added more cards with a council/trial theme like Supreme Judge and Court Hussar. So I thought it would be nice to complement this with a deck that gives the council and court a kingdom to be part of. I plan at least two more decks, but more on that at a later time :)

Oh and I am also searching for a proper deck name ...

So since you mentioned it, I'm going to drop these really quick:

Sen Triplets (Democracy)

Nekusar, the Mindrazer (Communism)
http://www.mtgvault.com/drakeraenes/decks/nekusar-the-mindrazer-edh/

Queen Marchesa (Monarchy)
http://www.mtgvault.com/drakeraenes/decks/queen-marchesa-edh/


Aside from the last one, they're all finished and playable. Triplets I own 100%, and Nekusar I will in time. Monarchy is the one I'm having trouble with theme-wise, so I'm offering these up to help. I kinda settled on a "your own little world" kind of bubble setup, so major damage reduction and just hexproof and shroud all over the place. Maybe you'll get some ideas?

As for a name, there are plenty of serious and goofy options that come to mind. The best ones I feel are:

Camelot
Monty Python
Hear Ye, Hear Ye
The King's Game
Game of Thrones

That's all I got for now. Let me know what you think!

What I think of is a bit more Steampunk related thinking on the Dishornored game series, especially the mechanic soldiers, you might think of Walking Balista and other construct soldiers like Soldier Replica

Soldiers and Knights are the easiest part, though.

King Macar is something I think about when I think of monarchs in mtg.

EDIT: OH YEAH!!!
almost forgot... rulers need a place to keep prisoners... so enter the dungeon perhaps?

I second that! Enter the dungeon is a fantastic idea!

a good ruler also needs a way to silence naysayers... quietly... so royal assassin?
