I will explain what Silver Rain is.
Basically, it is a web-based roleplaying game.
You create a character's backstory, personality, etc and play as this character through the forums. Characters are given special powers because they have a ghost encounter, and each character has a "trigger card" (the cards you see-i'll explain this later) that ties in to this. characters have weapons and fight.
However, for 1000 yen (around 8 US bucks) you can participate in a scenario, which is when a "Master Writer"s takes participants and, based on their personality etc, writes a story about them and determines the outcome of the scenario.
For 1000 yen, you can also request an illustration of your character from a "Master Artist" which is where these cards come from. people sometimes request additional arts which is why there are non-card illustrations for some characters. scenarios are apparently more important that normal forum-based roleplaying.
the game also has a top-down tactical RPG where you can use your characters, but...the translation is too thick for me to understand that part of it.
anyway, this is just what i understand from crap-translating the intro and explanation.
