Flavor doesn't quite match up because you never dread this going off, but it kind of works? Closest comparison in powerlevel is probably Sorcerer's Strongbox, which was pretty garbage.

Based off of those ancient seismographs used in the Han dynasty.

Not so sure about this being an end step check trigger and Baleful Supplicant being an upkeep trigger.

­{5} -> {4}. Added "you may". Probably getting a little too close to "too good for colorless", but the trigger should be hard enough to come by in limited immediately. Constructed is probably the main concern here.
