The goblin was small, even for his diminutive race. Under normal circumstances his presence would be ignored, perhaps even subject to ridicule. However, this particular goblin was adorned with the color and heraldry of the Immortal Gods, the most feared and powerful guild in the Splinterlands. To even look at the creature with anything than the utmost respect would be like begging for a spiked mace up one’s arse.
“Hear ye, hear ye!” shouted the goblin in a squeaky voice. He cleared his throat and smiled when he saw his mum and dad, brothers and sisters nodding encouragingly. “You tell ‘em, Tofly!” shouted cousin Wombo. The goblin herald beamed at the support.
His family cheered from amidst the growing crowd.
“As an emissary of the Immortal Gods, I am here to proclaim--!”
Tofly was suddenly crushed by a giant reptilian claw which had dropped down from above. The goblin’s relatives stood in shocked silence. The only remnants of Tofly’s existence was a bit of pinkish stuff that oozed out from beneath the foot of the dragon which gazed upon them with disdain. Astride the dragon was Splinter Master Raynie. Four other leaders of the Immortal Gods could be seen circling above on their dragons, among them Clove71 the Demon Queen.
Raynie gazed down at the crowd. Complete silence dominated the region. She nodded ever so slightly, and in response, her dragon raised its head. The expanse of its wings blocked out the sun, and its eyes flashed with an ancient magic of terrible power.
A psychic shock wave exploded from the dragon’s mind and into the consciousness of every sentient being on the continent. Those who were both weak willed and within close proximity simply fell over dead, their brains turned to mush.
"FROM THIS DAY FORWARD, EACH MEMBER OF THE IMMORTAL GODS WILL DONATE FIVE CARDS PER SEASON TO THE @IMMORTALGODS ACCOUNT. THESE CARDS MAY BE OF ANY SPLINTER, RARITY, OR SET."
"FOR THOSE OF YOU NOT VERSED IN THE COUNTING OF NUMBERS, THAT IS TEN CARDS PER MONTH."
"THESE DONATED CARDS WILL BE USED TO HELP GROW THE PLAYER BASE BY INCENTIVIZING OUTSIDE USERS TO TRY THE GAME OR TO HELP NEW PLAYERS WHO ARE JUST GETTING STARTED."
"FOR THE FEEBLE-MINDED AMONG YOU, THAT IS OVER 200 CARDS PER MONTH THAT WILL BE APPLIED TO SUPPORTING THE SUCCESS OF ALL SPLINTERLANDS PLAYERS. SOME OF YOU MAY ASK WHY WE WOULD DO THIS. WHAT DO THE IMMORTAL GODS HAVE TO GAIN FROM GIVING AWAY THEIR CARDS…?"
"THE ANSWER IS OBVIOUS: WE’RE #%^@$#! BADASS COOL. THAT’S WHY."
With that final statement, Raynie patted the dragon’s neck. The nearby villagers exhaled as one as if lifted from a trance. The silver-haired dragon rider cocked her head to one side. “I desire sushi. Who here can point me to the nearest sushi house.”
Tofly’s father answered, tears still wet upon his haggard face, The goblin family was still reeling from the loss of their loved one. “Wha...what’s sushi…?” he stammered.
Raynie stared intently at the crowd for a full eight seconds. “No sushi?”
Silence.
“Kill them all.”
The screams of the dying were lost amid the sound of dragonfire.
NOTE: Please wait while the Immortal Gods seek another village from which to make their next important announcement.
This is an awesome thing you started here Raynie! Great job and post! New players will love this! Love it!

Hi don't want to beg but I just started on the 7th if you guild is still giving out cards to new players id appreciate the help.
Came across this while scrolling about Splinterlands. Just joined today and thought I'd check if this offer was still available?
this is a really great initiative, and being a new player that is less than a week old this will be very helpful. May I request for this offer if still available, my SPL name is @rayius. Thank you!
This is awesome, I was looking for a guild and got caught up by your greetings, I'm just a neophyte to the game (Bronze 3) 2 days old player, I would be very thankful to be the lucky player to have donated cards from you, a big help for us newbies.
New player here. I have played hearthstone and legends of runeterra in the past and splinterlands is a really fresh TCG. Just bought my spellbook yesterday and got immediately hooked. Hope you help new players out there to just enjoy the game first before profits. Wish you well guys!

How would we know if we were the lucky ones that will be given the privilege to be gifted by cards?
Good Evening I am a new player and have been playing for a couple weeks now, I am hoping to join the ranks of your guild. I am not asking for handouts or any "special treatment. Only a chance to join the best of the best. I know its a longshot but I believe that once I get more established I could be very useful to the guild. (sorry if this is not the way to contact you I couldn't find any other way). my username is FastFox18 I have submitted a guild request. Thank you for your time and consideration.
😍
