**Beauty** is a hero card. Her ability makes all her characters Good, and Evil synergies work on her Good characters.

## Strategy

The description for **Beauty**'s hero power can be stated more simply from a mechanical standpoint - all her characters are Good and Evil at the same time.

**Beauty** has a wide range of synergies at her disposal, letting her use certain treasures and characters in ways that are otherwise impossible to do.

The first of these is that Rainbow Unicorn and Labyrinth Minotaur work with every aligned character, and so are now very strong picks, and synergize with each other, which they otherwise don't. Good Witch of the North and Wicked Witch of the West become able to work with far more characters, and Book of Heroes and Dark Contract become much more powerful. Ancient Sarcophagus is *extremely* good when playing **Beauty**, especially with Princess Peep. Queen of Hearts is a really strong character with **Beauty**, as it usually has a very large amount of stats for just 3 gold.

**Beauty** turns Fairy Godmother from a normally mediocre character, into an incredibly powerful one, and is almost always worth taking on level 4.

**Beauty** will use the highest Attack and highest Health from among all of your characters for Shoulder Faeries's Attack and health. One character can even provide the stats for both, meaning that a giant Dubly or Scion of the Storm can be an extremely effective combo with a Shoulder Faeries while playing Beauty.

Later, The Great Pumpkin and Good Boy can be added to a wider variety of boards, and can even be put into the same board - which isn't that strong, given that Good Boy's buffs do not usually apply to The Great Pumpkin's summoned characters - but it's fun, and lets you make some unusual pivots from one type of board to another. There aren't too many endgame boards that hinge on **Beauty**'s ability, but it can allow a Good Boy or The Great Pumpkin to be added to boards that they normally wouldn't be very good on. For example, a Good Boy on a Mages board can use their multiple spells to grow incredibly large, then provide it's stat buff to the entire team. The Great Pumpkin can be used on an animals board, where great animal treasures like Monkey's Paw or Summoning Portal get even better. There are tons of very interesting and unique synergies available to Beauty, so get creative!

## Notes

* **Beauty**'s ability will let you target any of your characters with spells such as Beauty's Influence and Evil Twin, and that character will remain both Good and Evil. (The alignment change ability is remembered, however, and if you dream out of **Beauty** it will dictate that character's alignment.)
* **Beauty**'s ability also changes abilities that trigger off of something happening to Evil characters. For instance, Queen of Hearts will get buffed when Good characters die.
* **Beauty**'s characters are both Good and Evil in every mechanical sense. One particularly interesting one - an opponent's Book of Heroes will trigger whenever it kills one of **Beauty**'s characters, whether it would normally be Good, Evil, or Neutral.
