UNDER NIGHT IN-BIRTH

With nobody able to help w/ this deck (Even though the fighting game series of the same name is so great), I really wanted to know what I can do to make this deck great, while faithful to the original source. Here's what I want from this:

  1. Creatures representing the characters of the verse.
  2. Lands representing the many areas of the verse
  3. Reasons why X (X = Card in Question.) is faithful to the original source; & also good.
  4. Why you think X is a good fit, even if it means sacrificing art for good effects
  5. Other things that are part of UNIB lore representing the other things (I'll get to it.)
  6. Even amounts of all 5 mana colors
  7. Having others help w/ some degree of knowledge of UNDER NIGHT IN-BIRTH.

I hope this helps, as I already have several things noted:

  • Merkava = Fathom Feeder (Voids consume w/o reason, & this Eldrazi has Ingest; & Deathtouch, which fits the bill the most about Merkava; a Void whose transformation is incomplete. That, & says Despair more than other color identities.

  • Ash Barrens = Abandoned Building (朽ち荒れた廃墟) (Welp, something happened to both things, so it fits.)

  • Command Tower or Reliquary Tower = Top Floor (最上階) (What? Both are related to what's at the top floor...)

  • Mana Confluence or Cascading Cataracts = Abyss (The center of the Hollow Night; filled with Infinite EXS. Both of these are considered like the power of an Abyss; but only one can truly be forcefully Destroyed.)

  • Hinterland Harbor = Riverside Esplanade (川沿いの遊歩道) (Well, both have some body of Water in the Background, & are both Harbors.)

  • Isolated Chapel = Cathedral of Far East (極東の大聖堂) (Both have quite some religious quality to them.)

  • Prismatic Geoscope = The Ruby of Nothingness (虚無なる紅玉) (Both Rocks contain energy of its most powerful; although I dun think Geoscope would fit this...)

And... That's it. If anyone can help me w/ just the cards alone, that would be great as I'm using terminology for all this (I'll finish this later; let's see what we can find for now...). Thanks again for helping in advance... :)

I haven't played the game, but as far as an abandoned building, I'd say Crumbling Necropolis fits the bill better

@RedmundR2: Well, it certainly never was a Hentai in the first place; otherwise, why the heck would I make the same mistake w/ Wonderful World (It's 15+, but some content of the latter seems dark enough.)? Although... Such content is non-canon anyways (Most of it was considered as Graffiti for the game, or even art by others.). Actually, maybe I could get back at this kind of Vorthos Deck theme, if anyone else wants to play it...

@Skoodly: Thanks. Replaced Ash Barrens w/ thus. & after all that, I can't believe I actually have some kind of supporter for this cause. I recommend checking out the Under Night IN-BIRTH wiki for more info; be it characters, areas, or whatnot...

I think we need more supporters for this franchise, in case anyone wants to help out, alright?

Later.
