Two-Headed Sliver and Zerapa Minotaur. I took some liberties with this one, since, if you're going to have some Kobolds, you should support them. And, I don't want to have to go the sliver route if I don't gotta. Let's face it; Smashing these two creatures together literally would have resulted in this royal mess:
Two-Headed Zerapa Sliver
: this creature loses all abilities. Any player may play this ability."

Creature - Sliver Minotaur
All slivers get First Strike and can only be blocked by two or more creatures.
All slivers gain "
3/3
Nobody wants that creature. If slivers start popping up in droves, I'll probably return to this creature. But with more jurisprudece that the above submission.
I decided to see how crazy this idea can be so I proceeded to generate two random cards from gatherer. I got Alluring Scent and Island. What would you do with these two ???? (I have what I did which I'll post later).
I got Mountain and another card, and I knew this would happen often and didn't want to keep making a bunch of non-basic lands, so I decided that basic lands would color shift me. See (((Unloved Devil))) to see that in action. With this card, I couldn't just change the cost to

, since that would be breaking the color pie. But we can flip it on its head and do this:
Harpy's Cry


Instant
Target untapped creature you control can and must block any number of creature if able. All creatures opponents control must attack if able.
Cool. Of course, if I wasn't color shifting and making it a land instead, I'd probably make a land with this enter the battlefield trigger. That's a good ability, so I fear the land would probably be nerfed quite a bit to make it reasonable.
Quick question, how do you get the limited text on each line without leaving lines ?
anyway I went the non-basic land route and had a land that ETB tapped, gave
and gave the lure effect as an ETB but you're right in that it may be a bit too strong.
Are you asking, Camruth, "How do you only make one line break in your comments field, as opposed to two line breaks between paragraphs?"
If that's what you want, just add <br> at the end of each line break. You can also add <p> for full paragraph breaks.

Google up "HTML tricks"thanks dude, I have next to no knowledge of html :-(
You don't need to use HTML in the comments here (although you're welcome to). If you end a line with two taps of the space bar, that will separate it into two lines
like I did there. That's "l,i,n,e,s,SPACE,SPACE,ENTER,l,i,k,e".
You can click the "formatting help" above any comment box to get some basic formatting suggestions; click the "Markdown" link in there to find out more about how to use Markdown.
But as I say, HTML is supported as well.
What the?! Cheating, I tell you. cheating.
Although, that is probably a lot more useful.
Originally, the
gave all Kobolds you control "-1/-1 until end of turn as long as ~ was on the battlefield". That's messy, and I was probably only doing it because of the "Lord's don't boost themselves rule." In this case, it just makes more sense for the Lord to bump himself... especially since having a 0/1 stat is an identifying feature for all the Kobolds. Non-standard reminder text in the middle of the ability helps solve the problem.
