Rare is the protection that stops your own characters from being discarded by your abilities. Most things will stop opponent's abilities from discarding them.Even if you have something the protects your other themes from discard (like High Priest's Palace), those characters are not legitimate targets for the random discard, and thus something that is able to be targeted (like, say, your other Mobs laid-down or played in previous turns) would bite the dust.
Timothy and Barsabbus both protect heroes from yourself which being that Barsabbus is a green prophet and clay will have a few other green prophets, I can see ANB getting a bit ridiculous when you shuffle everything but your protected Heroes...

Is that the same with effect or is that protection from both alignments?
Isn't there also a clause that you can't be protected from/immune to yourself? Like Uzzah can still discard himself with Thaddeus' protection active, he just can't also discard an Artifact to pay the cost.I'm pretty sure even if they didn't specify "harm" they wouldn't protect themselves from ANB if you played it on them in battle.
Abigail + David + Hidden Treasures + Visions or other Side battle cards.
'Shipwreck' - This card is also too strong. Negating and underdecking a Fortress OR site in play or set aside area as a dominant (therefore CBN and can be played at pretty much any time) seems like it might be too good on its own because of the almost unstoppable hole you can make with it to play an AoCP. I see absolutely no reason for the secondary ability of deck or hand discard to be added on to this card.
'The god of this World' - Should probably be called 'The God of this World' instead as that would make it consistent with all other card titles in terms of capitalization. I understand why you would want to keep the word 'god' lowercase in this instance because of the implications of uppercase 'God', but the precedent has actually already been set with 'Men as Gods'. If this is unacceptable please change the card name to something else.

If this is unacceptable please change the card name to something else.Men as Gods came out in Apostles. Later, The gods of Egypt came out in Patriarchs. So there is actually precedent for either capitalization of "god" when not referring to Jesus' father. If they want to leave "god" lowercase to signify a false god they have the right to. I will admit the grammarian in me cringes every time I see it, but I understand the sentiment. And there are other things with worse grammar rule breaking in this game, haha.

As I tried to imagine "Love" as a special ability, I kept coming back around to the idea of self sacrifice. Here are two different ways to approach that theme.Love - Multi TC EnhancementPlace on your human Hero: Each upkeep, you may decrease this hero 3/3 to increase a human of the same testament 3/3. Each opponent may draw 1.Concept: Loves means giving of yourself to offer the encouragement and strength that others need.Game: Imagine characters like Paul or Peter as a 4/4 while making their Creeping Deceiver a 7/11 that you can interrupt.Love - Clay TC EnhancementPlace on your Clay Hero: when hero enters battle, select a Lost Soul. If it is targeted by your opponent, you may discard this hero instead and add your NT hero to battle.Concept: Love led these followers and missionaries to give their lives to see the gospel carried to the lost.Game: Cards like DoU would shuffle all other souls, and Uzzah would protect all other souls. But the soul selected by Love would remain untargetted if the player chooses to discard the hero instead (and then add another hero to battle).
Red Warrior what happens if I place love on King David and get Moses jacked up to 17/17 by himself?
