I have too many mythics with too many words on them. This has less words.

It's a strong ability to pass on, but hopefully not unbeatably strong. 3/2 so it dies to most removal spells, because otherwise it might be too good.

Huh; it's actually kind of amusing. Because what you have is a small-to-middling sized (far too cheap) indestructible combat critter - and what you want, is for it to die so it can make your awesome big creature indestructible. Which is won't.

So I guess this ends up being a very good target for everything else to bequeth onto.

Is it intended that the + goes with the bequeathed ability, or not?

Yeah, a {+} denotes that it's an ability that can be bequeathed.

I figure that the P/T is reasonable since I want a creature that, by itself, can't (shouldn't) be ignored. If it ends up being a little too strong, I can adjust it to be a 2/2. Given its susceptibility to various forms of removal that get around indestructible, the main way for this to pass on its abilities will be your own actions - sacrificing it, redirecting damage to it (i.e. Honored Concubine).
