Aura Decks

**Aura Decks**, also officially known as **Sealed Aura Decks**, or informally as ‘Aura Bricks’ or ‘Aura Packs’ are a component of Spellbook boxes. They consist of a hundred Basic Aura Pages, and are highly recommended for newcomers to MetaZoo.

## Description

An Aura Deck is a cellophane-wrapped block of a hundred Basic Aura Pages reprinted from the set it was released in, divided equally into ten Pages (or ‘cards’) for each of the ten different Aura Types. They are sold exclusively inside the Spellbook boxes released for each new set, and are not available for direct purchase on their own, outside of the secondary market.

As of Seance, Aura Decks now always contain ninety-nine non-holo Pages, and one randomly-inserted holographic Page of a randomized Aura Type. With the exception of Cryptid Nation, the artwork and information on all the Aura Pages in an Aura Deck is always identical to the Aura Pages from the set the Aura Deck was released for.

As a product, Aura Decks are designed to aid in the construction of a Caster’s Spellbook (or ‘deck’), by ensuring a Caster (or ‘player’) immediately has the minimum amount of Aura Pages necessary for whatever type of Spellbook they wish to build, without having to open or buy any additional booster packs. For this reason, Aura Decks are considered essential for those just beginning to play MetaZoo, and are one of the primary reasons Spellbook boxes are often recommended as a first purchase for those getting into the game.

## History

In MetaZoo’s inaugural set, Cryptid Nation, both the 1st and 2nd editions of the Spellbook boxes included Aura Decks with a random holo Aura Page in them. For their next set, Nightfall, and several subsequent sets after, however, the Aura Decks only contained non-holo Aura Pages, and holo Aura Pages of any type were not available. Fortunately, beginning in Seance, the holo Aura Pages were reintroduced and as of Native, appear to be back to stay.

The Cryptid Nation set was also unique in that they were the only set to number the Aura Pages in the Aura Deck differently than they are numbered in the main set, specifically as each being a number out of ten. Future sets simply reprinted each Aura Page exactly as it appeared in its parent set.

Though Aura Decks are now only found in Spellbooks, MetaZoo did a one-off release of a Brilliant Aura Deck box shortly after the game became publicly available, which similarly contained a hundred Basic Aura Pages with one of them being a random holo Aura Page.Template:Cite

## Trivia

* Aura Decks are typically ordered in the same sequence as their Aura Types are within the core set the Deck is released alongside.

**Ghost** is a Tribe found on Beastie Pages. It first appeared on a Page from the core set Seance, and has not yet appeared in any subsequent sets.

## Description

The Ghost Tribe has appeared on only one Page so far, The Kind Ghost (Seance). A Neutral Page, it had the Immortal and Flash Traits, and no Terra Bonuses.

## History

Dawn (Terra Bonus)

## Dawn

Current Dawn' Symbol)

> *For Pages with this Terra Bonus, see Category: Dawn Terra Bonus Pages and Category: Dawn Terra Pages.*

**Dawn** is one of the available Terra Bonuses found on Beastie and Artifact Pages. It was one of the five Terra Pages introduced in MetaZoo’s second core set, Nightfall, that brought the total standard Terra Bonuses available in core sets up to twenty-four.

## Description

Dawn is a Terra Bonus found most often on Spirit Pages. It is does not particularly have a common pairing with other Terra Bonuses. Dawn is more likely to increase a Beastie’s Attack Damage than it is its Life Points.

Within the core sets’ specific order in which Terra Pages are organized, Dusk is always the twelfth Terra Bonus by set number to appear in the Terra Pages section. It is preceded by Winter and followed by Daytime.

## History

Dawn was one of the five additional Terra Bonuses introduced in MetaZoo’s second core set, Nightfall. For that set, the icon used to represent it was from the Game Icons set (second photo). For MetaZoo’s third set, Wilderness, and subsequent sets afterwards, MetaZoo used the new icon made in-house (first photo).Template:Cite

After Wilderness first introduced Special Terra Pages, Dawn received its first Special Terra Page as of Native in UFO with Daybreak (Dusk).

## Elder Matlox Deck

Front of 1st Edition Box

The **Elder Matlox** Theme Deck is a pre-constructed deck released as one of Nightfall’s five Theme Decks. It is a Earth-type deck that specializes in increasing outgoing Damage and reducing incoming Damage.

## Description

The Elder Matlox deck was one of the original five pre-constructed Theme Decks released for MetaZoo’s second core set, Nightfall. As with all Theme Decks, it was sold individually in its own uniquely branded, celloprane-wrapped box as an accessible starter product for players, or alternatively in a complete set of all five Theme Decks, depending upon the store.

Its box contained its titular ready-to-play 40-card deck, one duplicate holographic promo of its headliner Elder Matlox, one metallic coin featuring the deck’s Grafton Monster Beastie, a copy of the Rulebook, a paper playmat, and one booster pack for the Nightfall core set.

As with all Theme Decks, following its release the deck’s titular promo beastie, Elder Matlox, was added to the Reserved List.

## Card List

The following is a complete list of the pre-constructed Elder Matlox Theme Deck, as it is sold. It does not account for the additional promo, or the contents of the box’s booster pack.

## Gameplay Tips

As this deck contains both a reprint of Powerup Red and New Beginnings, buying this deck just for those two cards may be cheaper than sourcing them individually.
