Artifact
227/275 Uncommon

During combat, all creatures have shroud.

Originally crafted by wizards to prank their colleagues, the Un-Candle looks like an ordinary candle, but emits a sphere of magical darkness when lit! Even those with natural darkvision cannot pierce its inky void. In our campaign, our fighter Mishka once lit one in the midst of battle to slip right by an enemy the party was unprepared to fight, rescuing a wounded NPC along the way!

When designing this card, I wanted to create an answer to combat tricks (especially Inspiration tokens, which are at their strongest when buffing creatures after blocks have been declared). With the Un-Candle’s shroud, however, players are forced to commit to their tricks before combat begins, making it much easier to plan attacks and blocks!
