CHALLENGE THEMES;
REMINDER: Participants must use the first theme for their icon. This earns them 2 points. For each additional theme (#2 and/or #3) incorporated into the icon, one additional point is added.

If the iconmaker also submits for the bonus theme, they will earn 6 points in all.

The Hierophant represents a religious authority.
The Hermit represents a spiritual mentor.
Icon a character who has one of these roles.
E.g. Grandmother Willow (spiritual mentor) or Frollo (religious authority).
theme #2:
The Hierophant also symbolizes routine.
The Hermit also symbolizes inner calm.
For routine, incorporate patterns into your icon.
For inner calm, create your icon in a minimalistic style.
The style does not need to match the character and card.
theme #3:
The Hierophant card image has two pillars on each side.
The Hermit card image has a solitary source of light.
Include either sidebars on the left and right of the icon.
Or create an icon with a lot of contrast between light and dark.
The style does not need to match the character and card.
