Card reveals for Murder at Castle Nathria continue today with the a new demon Hunter card from Blizzard - Relic Vault. We're only missing the Warlock location after this reveal! But what are these Relics though...
Edit: in case you're wondering if Queen Azshara's Ancient Relics will count towards Relic Vault's effect, Hearthstone Designer Cora "Songbird" Georgiou answered by saying that Relics are a mechanic exclusive to the Murder in Castle Nathria set.
Quote From Songbird Does this work with Queen Azshara's Ancient Relics?
It does not. The Relics are exclusive to this set.

It's simply the most card in the digital card game Hearthstone!
This card doesn't seem to have a forum thread. That might be an issue for completing the Tavern Crawl I'm sure is happening. Somebody should tell Arthas.
There are some technical issues right now, which unfortunately we cannot quite fix :(
However, things should be back to normal very soon, and with them the discussion threads from Arthas.
Could be possible they don't want to make one, yet, since it's kind of pointless. Making one on the 13th is more logical.
The blog post reveals the name of one of the relics, Relic of Extinction, which likely involves destroying a minion? Seems like a bad move to reveal a support card without any of the cards its supporting
- Well, you still haven't told us what we gonna do with that.
- Whatever, just review the card card reviewer.
- Sure Jack...
On a serious note, this is of course an intended reveal. A lil bit of mysterie.
Blizz: let us show you all Volatile Skeleton cards at once, just so that you can picture how will this archetype look like.
Also Blizz: Relics trigger twice lol
5 Star card
It's been confirmed on the HS Twitter, that the reveal for (at least the first of) the relics will be done on the 13th by FenoHS.
Weird to reveal this before we know anything about what these "Relics" are.
it's a way to build Hype. Magic did something way more werid, releasing Eye of Ugin 1 or 2 sets behind any of the Eldrazi cards existed, so people were like "Wtf is an eldrazi"
Does it work on itself? It's got Relic in its name...
Very unlikely. The 'Relic' in its name specifies what the vault contains, not what the vault is. It's essentially an adjective, while the text requires 'Relic' to be a noun.
Can we just call this an easy 5 star card? I mean, just think of the insane combos such as as well as and not to mention . The possibilities are practically endless and I doubt this won't make it into a tier 1 deck.
It's entirely possible that relics are such absolute poop that casting one twice literally accomplishes nothing. Proving Grounds cast twice is still Proving Grounds.
Also, Relic had better be a keyword lest we get grammar chafing from this card being a Relic-by-title but not a Relic-by-rule. I can't imagine it is a school -- DH already has inconsistent school support as it is (e.g., Fel only and only certain arbitrarily-selected non-summoning cards are Fel).
All of the Location cards seem pretty good so I'd guess this one will be too
Hmmm...would be good if relics are viable.
What is a relic?
*We'll be back in three days...maybe*
Can we add this to the long list of mage bias after that class got its whole(?) Volatile Skeleton package revealed together so we could evaluate it, while DH gets this in isolation?
Blizz even made this an end-of-the-week post, knowing full well that we'd have to wait the weekend before maybe learning what it means on Monday :/ That's just rude.
Probably their way of being funny... trolling instead
