The System and the Shadow Army

Type: Token

Rarity: Token

Mana Cost: —

Color Identity: Colorless

Reminder card. THE SYSTEM: at the beginning of your upkeep, the System issues a Daily Quest — a small task named on the card. If you complete it before your end step, take the reward. If you don't, take the penalty. The task is always doable and the penalty is always real: damage to your face, a sacrifice, a discard, a permanent that doesn't untap. This is a CONTRACT, not a gauge — the System never measures how strong you are, it tells you what to do and it collects at your end step.

SHADOW EXTRACTION: exile a LEGENDARY creature card from a graveyard with no shadow counter on it and put a shadow counter on it — it can never be extracted again — then put the Shadow card onto the battlefield tapped. Three restrictions carry the whole mechanic: legendary only, once each forever, and what stands up is a NAMED CARD OF THIS DECK — Igris, Beru, Tusk, Iron, Tank, Greed, Kaisel, Bellion — with its own art, its own stats and its own quest. Never a copy of what died.

“The thing that died is gone. What kneels afterwards is somebody else, wearing your colours.”

Single card from the SOLO LEVELING (Arise) Commander deck. Sold individually.
