If the Active Player, for any reason wishes to get a fresh set of cards, as a sacrifice to the dark forces they must offer 1 Soul Coin to the forest in exchange for a new set of Baryo cards.

The Soul Coin serves as the player’s life points in the game. A player is eliminated once they run out of Soul Coins.

Play Card Abilities
