"another creature"?
or "you may"?
The stats of this are chosen to reflect blue common fliers with a drawback like Scrapskin Drake and Hinterland Drake. It is also a direct reference to Shrieking Drake.
If I make it all upside I would hence adjust the stats.
I probably post-pone the decision until playtesting (which will likely tell me 90% of my ideas still are bad).
It's probably worth mentioning Kor Skyfisher. For what it's worth, I think the Skyfisher is one of the best white commons out there, so I don't think it's unreasonable to cost it a full
more.
That said, the card is already worse than the Skyfisher in two ways (Skyfisher can return any permanent) so I'd include the "another creature" clause. It at least gives you a reason to play this over Fisher in some decks (decks that are low on non-land permanents that is.)
