I originally wanted to use the M10 owl to avoid using Scry/Fateseal but it ended up crazily wordy. This version is much cleaner and the synergy between itys two forms is awesome.
I wasn't planning on using Scry or Fateseal in the set but they both fit the flavour of the set really well so I may just have to change my mind.

I want at least 1 Penumbra creature in each colour, most will be simple vanillas except for the penumbra 'ability' but this just cried out to me to exist so maybe a Common and an Uncommon in each colour - }:-)

I have to be careful though or I'll end up with 20 types of creature tokens which wouldn't be good.

This is really snazzy. Officially 3x better than the scrying owl, but snazzy just the same.

Changed cost to {2}{u} (though maybe {1}{u}{u} would be better) because jmgariepy is right, this is way better than Augury Owl even if bumped to uncommon.

I like this. I agree it's better not to obsolete Augury Owl.
