power
a green card represents the ability make an item of certain supernatural power.
in the cycle of dance, green cards make items from chaos. in the cycle of dreams, green cards made items from nothing: from the void, ex nihilum. it is not recorded in any history how green cards operate in previous cycles.

perfection
a green card represents the ability to make items which imperfectly serve an archtype or multiple archetypes. manifest green card attractors are therefore among the lowest order of white cards.

consistency
green cards make white card items which have no guarantee of performance in all places or all timeframes. local conditions and the whims of dominators (i.e. "circumstances") may alter the manner in which a white card operates when that white card comes from a green card.

multiplicity
multiple white cards may be generated from one green card.
multiple green cards may represent one particular type of strange attractor. if there is more than one green card representing a strange attractor, there is no way to determine which green card made a particular white card.

dismissal
a green card wielder may dismiss white card attractors at the rate of one per round while crossing-in-the-mist occurs under the inspiration of a muse. this one-per-round limit occurs regardless of whether the green card weilder is crossing-in-the-mist of worlorn, or without inspiration.
when not crossing-in-the-mists of worlorn, a green card wielder may dismiss ALL manifestations of the strange attractor controlled by that green card. if a green card weilder chooses to dismiss ALL non-manifest strange attractors, those strange attractors are dismissed without regard to which green card actually created a particular white card.
