They have the following property in addition to the basic card properties and the properties of actions:
| Name | Example | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Restore cost | 0 1 1 |
The energy cost that must be paid during your restore step to maintain this permanent. |
| Endurance | 9 | The amount of damage this permanent can take before it is destroyed. [1] |
