Day 12: Deliver exposition through stage plays!

Half-way and I am still doing my part! Gonna need a heavy edit, it is more challenging to write than I imagined :)
The Rock Face
Beauty Kills - The Siren class for B/X is my late entry for Day 10.
This was my first attempt at writing a class for B/X (I don't usually play straight retro D&D or retroclones). It might be very unbalanced, and halfway through writing it, I realized it would probably have worked better as a monster. But, despite all odds, it is here.
Day 12: MtG Color as Alignment. Rough draft for a take on Magic: the Gathering's color alignment system with mechanical effects on the players.
Day 13: Magic... almost. Not quite there but Warlock has shown me the path
Day 13: Fearsome Critters. Weirdo North American folklore monsters that provide bizarre challenges for people trying to hunt them.
(also thank you guys for all the nice responses to these posts, it feels good to get some attention on my random ideas even if the attention in question is like 20 page views lol)
I've been working on my calendar, and I'm a couple days behind, but here's Day 12: What's in the box?

Broke my streak, there's just too damn many spells to read. Here's a late day 14 with a selection of arcane spells
And here's a shorter list of nature spells to catch up to day 15. Going through this list it really feels like the high level spells are things that should be boss monster powers, or even entire adventures on their own. Letting characters do lower level magic constantly feels like the right choice though.
Did a bit of worldbuilding with a nature-inspired dwarven culture for yesterday:
