Paradox is an ability word introduced in the Universes Beyond set Doctor Who.[1][2]
Description
In Doctor Who, paradoxes range from relatively harmless to universe ending.
Paradox is an ability word that provides an effect, whenever you cast a spell from anywhere but your hand. This works well with mechanics like Escape, Cascade, Flashback and Retrace. Often these abilities are triggered abilities that trigger whenever you do so. Some paradox abilities count the number of spells you've cast from anywhere other than your hand that turn to determine the magnitude of their effects.
