The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- There is a wide range of stock characters, covering people of various ages, social classes and demeanors.
- Archetypal characters are regarded by some audiences or reviewers as simplistic cookie-cutter characters, targeted for parody and criticized as clichés.
- However, the presence of a particular array of stock characters is a key component of many genres, and they often help to identify that genre or subgenre.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Stock character article was read about 120,000 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 40: each hit it takes is cut by 16 %.
How to get Stock character
Open packs. Each pack holds five cards drawn from real Wikipedia articles, the rarest last, and the fifth card is always Rare or better. The odds are shown in the game. A free pack arrives every hour and two can wait, and the Coins you win in duels buy more packs.
