Functional reprint of Driver of the Dead. No Vampires in this set (Jiangshi are kind of like vampires, but I classify them more as zombies), so need a different name and creature type.

Kinda feels weird having both this and Replace Soul in the set. Btw, in case you didn't know and you care about it, I'm pretty certain that cards with the phrase "converted mana cost" in their rules text are red flagged.

Yeah, the similarities with the "reanimate cmc 2 or less" are intentional, since it's replacing typical token generation in this set. It's not really a mechanic because it's still showing up much less frequently than token generation does, but I do want to have some forms of card advantage at common that aren't just "draw a card". I realize it's redflagged, but I think that for balancing purposes, it's fairly necessary. I'm not one for caring too much about redflags, anyway - commons should be relatively simple, but I'm not going to worry too much if more than 20% of my cards are redflagged.

2 or less -> 3 or less. Universal change. {3}{b} -> {4}{b}.
