The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- There are numerous variations of the style for men, women, and children.
- The basic concept is having a large volume of hair swept upwards from the face and worn high over the forehead, and sometimes upswept around the sides and back as well.
- Despite the name, this hairstyle has nothing in common with the hairstyle of Madame de Pompadour, who wore her hair back rather than up, with no extra volume on the top.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Pompadour article was read about 130,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 58 and blocks with 36: each hit it takes is cut by 14 %.
