Cosmetics
Cosmetics are visual modifiers that alter the appearance of certain items, assets, and visuals.
What are cosmetics?
In short, cosmetics are visual modifiers that change the way certain things and items look in game. They don’t offer any in-game advantage nor enhancement. These can vary in many ways from being something that can be equipped and unequipped, to being something that is permanently visually altered.

The below sections will highlight some of the cosmetics that are found within Parallel and how to acquire them.

Special Edition [SE]

SE cards produce a different visual experience in game. The experience isn’t exactly known yet, but hints have been dropped from the Parallel team that they will be noticeably different from their FE counterparts.

Card Backs

Card Backs are the original cosmetic option. They alter the visual appearance of the back of the card art, also known as the ‘reverse side’. These can be equipped and unequipped at ease before each game, so if you’re lucky enough to have more than one, you can swap them out for each game.

As things stand, most card backs have very low edition sizes ranging from 64 to 200. However, the five original Parallel Collectible Card Backs are the only to have a Special Edition version which has edition sizes ranging from 11 to 16.

Card backs cannot be replicated through the echoes system so they truly are a collector’s item.

Art Cards

Art Cards, with edition sizes of eight, are extremely scarce non-playable versions of card art that can also be utilized as Card Backs. There are two main styles – Art Cards and Concept Art Cards, with the latter being the artist’s original concept sketch of the final released card art.

Artigraphs

Artigraphs: An Artigraph adds the original artists’ signature to the card. To Artigraph a card, a collector can spend some amount of $PRIME, depending on the card type, to add the artist’s signature.

To Artigraph you’ll need to have your wallet connected. Go to https://parallel.life/cards, sign in and connect wallet, select a card, and then click Upgrade to Artigraph.
