Rouxls Kaard works on so many levels as an absolutely perfect representation of a rules card the more I think about it

- His puzzles are easy to understand because rules cards are made to be easily understood, though the text can be a bit hard-to-read at times

- They have no function in most actual games, and are thus “The most useless card in a deck”

- If they DO get mixed in to a deck, they basically just cause a momentary annoyance when you’re like “Oops, this is the rules card. I’ll just put that aside and draw again” and move on with the game after a few seconds

- They’re ultimately mildly helpful, despite being basically functionless

- Especially good for children who wouldn’t have learned the rules yet

- The thing on his chest isn’t a marching band-like vest with a line of buttons, it’s a list of rules

his name is a fake french homestuck spelling of “rules card”
