Banyan, an Uncommon card
A banyan is a garment worn by European men and women in the late 17th and 18th century, influenced by the Japanese kimono brought to Europe by the Dutch East India Company in the mid-17th century.

The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- "Baniyan" is also commonly used in present-day Indian English and other countries in the Indian subcontinent to mean "vest" or "undershirt".
- Also called a morning gown, wrapper, robe de chambre or nightgown, the banyan was a loose, T-shaped gown or kimono-like garment, made of cotton, linen, or silk and worn at home as a sort of dressing gown or informal coat over the shirt and breeches.
- The typical banyan was cut en chemise, with the sleeves and body cut as one piece.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Banyan article was read about 36,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 46 and blocks with 28: each hit it takes is cut by 11 %.
