For Challenge # 122. The white drawback on this card... it's not really a thing? I mean it's using something similar to Masked Gorgon or maybe Circle of Solace, but I'm pretty sure we haven't seen a card do quite this.

My thought process on this card was that white is very good at naming a color (any color) and getting protection from it. It's comfortable saying "this color is special/sacred, so it can't touch it." I don't see why White can't extend that same mentality to tribes. The scourge is thankful of its adoptive tribe, whoever they might be, and wouldn't think to hunt down its brethren. Everyone outside its clique, though, is fair game. Pity that shapeshifters tend to be difficult to represent in found art, though.

Reminds me of Patriarch's Bidding or Harsh Mercy. Certainly feels suitably black-white to me, though interestingly it feels more organically whole than the typical entries to this challenge that are quite glue-gun.

This is my favorite of your entries for this challenge.
