The shoppers in a Segovian Market, however, would scream in abject terror. ;)

Very red, especially if they were 3/1s. Actually, red might just make an X/1. Oh, and unless this is on Segovia, 3/3 does not a Behemoth make. Naya says those have to be 5/5 or larger.

This seems red.

On Primal
Some cards in this set have the new supertype of Primal - This means that they can only be cast using mana from Basic Lands. So no mana creatures, no mana artifacts, etc just Basic lands.
As a tradeoff, Primal cards are a little better than their regular counterparts as it is harder to get them out early.
For example, where a 4/4 Vanilla creature might cost 5 mana, a 4/4 Primal would cost 4 or even 3 mana (with a slight drawback) depending on its actual casting cost.

New name is because he hunts whole packs of game at once :-)

very correct Alex, the green ability was originally regeneration but I moved that to Varo's Sanctum and put in the damage prevention, should've swapped colours of the activations then.

The power levels look okay here (although gaining 3 life a turn, every turn, is pretty strong, the cost means you won't be doing much else). Just one thing: the colours seem the wrong way around. White and green both get lifegain, but damage-prevention is much more white than green.

Quite powerful, so much that the -1/-1 has gone. Plus, both abilities of the card were "death" oriented. Now there's 1 death & 1 life which is a better fit for Varo's philiosophy.

Whoa. This seems terrifyingly powerful. I do remember Vault of the Archangel was pretty terrifying too, so I guess let's compare them:

VA>VS: * Grants deathtouch to all your creatures, not just one * Also grants lifelink * Produces mana the turn it arrives * Isn't legendary

VS>VA: * Produces two colours of mana rather than zero * Can annihilate weenies as well

Hmm. Those two plusses are significant, but I guess the lifelink and ETBT are significant differences too. Maybe it's not as terrifyingly overpowered as I thought. (Or maybe Vault of the Archangel is just overpowered too.)

I'd still be scared of this.
