(Target a creature as you cast this.) : Target creature gets +1/+1 until end of turn.
Created for Challenge # 077. The reminder text is partially that from Tenth Edition, as seen on Fear, but I could easily see an Alpha card having that kind of text. (It'd probably be rules text rather than reminder text in Alpha, I suppose. Ah well.)
The idea of course is that in modern Magic this is an Aura that doesn't actually affect the creature it's on, but rather gives you the ability to pump any creature; while in Alpha rules this is how Blessing was written.
This creation was probably inspired by some searches I did a few years back looking for cards which get much better with R&D's Secret Lair.
Trying to come up with name and flavour text that could work for either of the completely different mechanics was quite tricky :)
