I selected Thermal Lance and Random Generator gave me Bog Imp. I left this one for last, in case I had to switch it into another color. But, yeah, blue gets a lot of flying creatures. We'll give it to blue and figure out what's going on later.
It is a hard thing to do, to bring an underpowered vanilla-ish creature and change it into a rare artifact that has certain pre-requisites that need to be filled. I tried to capture a bit of the Bog Imp flavor text on this one. It's not a very dangerous creature... but don't turn your back on it. I wish I could have added a bit more of Boo Buddy from the Mario Brothers franchise, but adding "and it slowly creeps up behind you" wasn't going to work.
"Equip to a Homunculus"? Um...? How many of those are there printed: about 4? There are lots of Knights and Dragons. Could this at least be equip to a Vedalken or a Bird or something?
I wasn't sure what to snap this onto. I wanted something that naturally felt small and hidden, which would point to fairies, but they already have flying, so part of the effect would be lost on them. Heh. Maybe I should just make this Equip to a Spirit. Let's do that for now.
