"Forbidden" (
Contents
Lore[edit]
Japanese media identifies the old man featured in the Solemn cards and "Forbidden Scripture" as God, who owns those items and is shown punishing the woman for taking them in "Solemn Scolding". She later becomes gradually more corrupted, her appearance progressing from "Condemned Maiden" to "Condemned Witch", and eventually "Condemned Darklord".
Origin[edit]
Despite the Greek theme and appearance of each of the cards' artwork, the inspiration behind the archetype appears to have come from the 4 most notable holy relics of Christianity.
