Trussed-up telenovela Downton Abbey, an Edwardian-set import, has captured this nation’s hearts and imaginations with its savvy combination of icy British subtlety and hot-blooded American-style romance. And much like your average everyday card-based RPG, the show often stages the fall of fiefdoms and the rise of champions at the dining room table.

Longing glances and sniveling sneers are but the lowest-level common attacks in this field of play - below you will find some of the more formidable and unique powers these class warriors possess.
