More mashups. The flavour went 'un' on me, but "Regeneration costs more" is reasonably printable, and plausibly blue (as green's enemy) - but wizards seem to favour Invulnerability over it now, and avoid it most of the time either way; so probably not much use to modern sensibilities. Black Poplar Shaman + Stalling Bureaucrat
Thankfully, regeneration is still more frequent than indestructible. Regeneration is seen on about one common and 1-2 uncommons per set, whereas indestructible is 0-1 per set and never common.
I do like the flavour here, but I think it should be type Treefolk Advisor (cf Droning Bureaucrats) (or just Treefolk Bureaucrat as per the inspiration card).
Sorry, Alex, but these 6 commons&rarity=|[C]) seem to disagree with you. That being said, 3 come from Darksteel, and probably don't count, and the other three grant indestructibility via on instants and auras... not as an ability on a creature spell.
Yeah, I meant never as a printed ability on a common creature, which has absolutely never happened. I'd also add that two of those instants/auras are pretty conditional; Withstand Death is the only unconditional indestructibility granter at common, and that's just a oneoff. So I think my point stands pretty well, really ;)
