This has become a standard on analog clocks and watches (presumably to avoid confusion with VI), but for some reason IX and XI (for 9 and 11 respectively) is fine.

ETA: I guess IX and XI are ‘fine’ because they’re not upside down, but my point still stands.
The Knight special is obviously the passive ability to jump over other pieces.
I… didn’t realize that the Omens weren’t Adventures. Makes sense now because I thought a few of them looked pretty strong.
I discovered that much of my problem was the stock ink that came in it; it felt terrible to write with. I ended up ordering a Parker Jotter and replacement ink, so I'm trying both out to decide which I like better. I think I like the form of the Jotter better, but it's quite small and light. I like the weight of the rotring 600 more. I think I'm going to try both out and return one of them. Or just keep them both, I haven't quite decided yet.
I got one yesterday and I’m thinking about returning it. It feels very underwhelming. I expected higher quality.

I was curious so I looked it up. Guess it’s a card from Commander Masters - I had never seen it before.
Not included in their text, but it is in the screenshot. Probably helpful for you to point it out though, not everyone is going to read the code in the screenshot.
It literally said in the linked post that this isn’t the case…
