In Dragons of Etchinstone, cards have multiple orientations. Mage Cards have four orientations, denoting Levels 1-4 of the Mage Card. Region Cards and Dragon Cards have two orientations, with two of the four unique Regions or Dragons on each card.
To Orient a card, simply rotate or flip until the required part of the card is readable from left to right. Once Oriented, ignore any text on the card that is not readable in this way.
