Custom Munchkin Cards

Description

A trio of Munchkin cards I created with the blank cards that came with the Unnatural Axe expansion, two of which play to the tendency of my group of friends to be genderqueer, androgynous, genderfluid, or just plain queer. My apologies for the smudged condition of the cards, and the poor quality scan.

I welcome other players to copy these cards and let me know about it, if you like the rules on them enough.

I love the cat head band idea. I really like the rule about cat monsters. Not sure how often rat/dog/cat monsters come up in a regular game to make it worthwhile. So that kinda makes it seem like it would only be worn if you're hoping "it's better than nothing". Maybe a +1 base effect with the additional stuff for rats/cats/dogs. Although I've seen a cat themed add-on pack of cards that this would be great with. There are probably lots of cat monsters! (Haven't seen it and personally I've only played Adventure Time themed Munchkin myself - looking to expand)
Personally, I might use slightly different rules - to match with Adventure Time.
Or maybe you can't use the headband's benefits unless you do an anime looking "meow meow" bounce while holding your fingers up to your face like whiskers! I've seen a few cards that require the person to do something silly for a bonus like sing a song or something. This would sort of be an automatic cute filter, I think only people that think it would be cute would be willing to put it on their character!

The androgynous card seems fair. My Adventure Time set already has something similar. (One of the characters, BMO, ignores all gender rules) And there's a card that lets you have all the advantages of a character with none of the disadvantages. So this card seems fair and appropriate as an add in. I'm not sure, but I think "characters" are equal to "races" in the regular game.

I really like the rules behind the Drag Axe, but I don't think an axe makes sense. It doesn't even look special, just like a regular axe. Not as fun as the description would imply. I like all 3 rules you made for it, but I'd like to see something more interesting chosen. Maybe all the weapons in the regular Munchkin games are actual weapons? In my version, they're not necessarily typical weapons. Maybe a lumberjack axe at least (draw a lumberjack wielding a timber axe), that would reference the Monty Python "I'm a Lumberjack" song.

Just my thoughts, if you were interested. I think I will try to incorporate these into my game, so Thank You!
