Well played Dagger. That's a good point: perhaps once this clan contest is over, someone (me?) should put something together.
Also, I need to re-do the member list and get rid of inactives. I recall ced posting such a list at the start of last thread, so I'll use that as a base.
@Ecophagy: Minor request...could you make my name all one word "AlphaInsidious" in the member list?

Mister Guy Dude [cost]
Creature — Human Something
When ~ enters the battlefield, destroy target noncreature permanent you don't control.
When ~ leaves the battlefield, return it to the battlefield under an opponent's control.
0/1
Anyway, going to try to make an alternative to ZDS'.
:1mana::symb::symw:
Creature - Human Minion
When ~ leaves the battlefield, return it to it's owner's hand.
1/1 Just when I thought that I was out they pull me back in.
Permanent sac outlet for our dude. Maybe it's a little too good since it's also a permanent chump blocker. Also, I hope the text fits with the rules.
EDIT: I just had the awesomest idea for flavor text :D.
Interesting second criteria. I suppose that we're going to make it a Human or something.
Maybe we could do this one more top-down. We have a a mafia Assassin/Toughguy, whatever. What else could we do? A Roleblocker, perhaps (might be blue, though). A Goon, with a simple mechanic? Something else?
Just an idea, but:
Guy :symwb::symwb:
Creature - Human Minion
Creatures opponents control can't be regenerated.
When ~ leaves the battlefield, regenerate target creature you control.
2/2
One problem is that W does not get the first ability. But it's an idea.
The minion is an infinite blocker and will probably be used as such first and foremost.
Murderous Rhetorician :sym2w::symb:
Creature — Human Assassin
When you sacrifice a creature, you may destroy target creature unless any player pays U or 3.
When ~ enters the battlefield, sacrifice a creature. "Answer my arguments, or else!"
2/1
This should probably be :symw::symb: then. Doesn't have an odd converted mana cost though.
Eh, don't like the unless clause here.
Merciless Recruiter :3mana::symw::symb:
Creature - Human Advisor
Whenever you sacrifice a non-token creature, put a 1/1 black Human Minion creature token on to the battlefield under your control.
2/2
For some reason the more they see men dying the more they want to join up.
First we've clearly declared our portion of the pie, which only makes sense with a multicolored avatar. I think that we are not looking for a grunt, but an uncommon or rare that is a threat on its own, but very powerful when it hits the ground with Capo Famiglia.
Caporegime2W
Creature - Human Soldier [R]
Flash
When ~ leaves the battlefield, each players destroys target nonland permanent.
1/2
Sleeper Agent - Part DeuxWB
Creature - Human Soldier
~ comes into the battlefield under your opponents control.
At the beginning of your upkeep, destroy target non-creature permanent and lose 2 life.
2/2
It has to have an odd CMC.
Right now it's too underpowered by itself - destroying your lands and giving your opponent a 2/2 beatstick jsut for 2 life loss? Sure it combos excellently with our legend but that is the only time you would ever want to play this guy.
Perhaps:
Sleeper Agent - Part Deux1WB
Creature - Human Soldier
~ enters the battlefield under your opponents control.
At the beginning of your upkeep, destroy target non-creature permanent and lose 3 life.
1/1
Now with twice the sleepiness.
I like Caporegime. It should have an even cost though.
--
Dude Person 2WB
Creature — Human Something
: Target permanent you control gains the Flagbearer ability.
When ~ leaves the battlefield, target player discards a card. "My wording sucks"
3/3
Edit: No Skander it doesn't have to have an odd mana cost, read the bonus requirements again.
Something :symw::symb:
Creature - Human Minion
When ~ enters the battlefield put a 2/2 white and black Human Minion creature token onto the battlefield under your control.
When~ leaves the battlefield sacrifice a creature.
2/2 I will keep designing stuff until I get bored.
Caporegime3(U/B)
Creature - Human Soldier [R]
Shadow
When ~ leaves the battlefield put a copy of ~ into play. "The caporegime will always exist so long as the Family remains." 1/1
I'm debating making this CMC of 6...
EDIT: I also take back what I said about the pie. I like the idea of the scum being behind every color int he pie.
Duuuude 2WB
Creature — Human Something
: Choose a target permanent. Until end of turn, your opponents must choose this permanent if able while choosing targets as part of casting a spell or activating an ability.
When ~ leaves the battlefield, target player discards a card. "My wording still sucks"
3/3
I like "something" but the second ability should be an enter-the-battlefield trigger.
The point of the card is to give you 4 power worth of creatures for cheap but it may turn into a liability as you'll have to end up saccing something good (if you play something else and then they get rid of the bear).
Isn't that more blue though?
Heh I like this. I think it's fine at 4 mana though. Maybe :2mana::symub::symub:?
On the other hand there's probably tons of broken infinite sacrifice combos that I'm not aware of.
Blergh. I don't like that ability.
Well you could just make it a static ability on a wall (or any creature for that matter).
Something like:
Wall of Text :symu::symb:
Creature - Wall
Activated abilities of creatures can't be played.
0/3
Wall of Text WUB
Creature — Wall
Flash
When ~ enters or leaves the battlefield, counter all activated abilities of creatures. Activated abilities of creatures can't be played this turn.
Sacrifice a human creature: Return ~ to its owner's hand. "Last ability is optional but fits the human tribal subtheme"
1/5
Including blinking and other such messes. I like my first idea best, a modified Loyal Sentry fits the ability seems like the best fit, maybe if I made is more competitive as a creature:
Caporegime2WB
Creature - Human Knight [U]
Flash
First Strike
When ~ leaves the battlefield, each player sacrifices a nonland permanent. I have flavor
3/3
Caporegime3W
Creature - Human Soldier [R]
Flash
When ~ leaves the battlefield, each player destroys a nonland permanent of their choice. I have flavor
1/4
Consigliere1B
Creature - Human Wizard [R]
When a creature leaves the battlefield, each player draws a card and loses 2 life.
When ~ leaves the battlefield, draw a card and lose 1 life. I have flavor
1/2
Roleblocker :3mana::symb:
Creature - Human Goon
When ~ is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, target creature looses all activated abilities until end of turn.
3/1
The problem with all of the guys spouting tokens is that our avatar is really a control card. Sure it needs cannon fodder, but it's still control. I think a "signature" spell would enhance the control aspect and not just be Elspeth light.
Bodyguard GuyWU
Creature — Human Soldier
Flash
When ~ enters the battlefield, target permanent gains shroud until end of turn.
When ~ leaves the battlefield, you gain 3 life.
2/1
Nice. I like the abilities.
Hmmm, trying to think of a better name. Shibui's Caporegime fits the original card.
Bodyguard GuyWU
Creature — Human Soldier
Flash
When ~ enters the battlefield, target permanent gains shroud until end of turn.
When ~ leaves the battlefield, you gain 3 life.
2/1
I love this card...so flavorful!
Maybe it could use hybrid mana to incorporate black?
Something like: W ?
It's pretty powerful though, perhaps undercosted.
For 2 mana, you can block an attacker, trade for it, save one of your own guys, and gain 3 life when it dies.
The problem, of course, is that it's less interesting at 4 mana, and we can't do 3 b/c of the bonuses. Maybe if it just gains you 2 life?

My only issue is that it's a cool card that has nothing to do with our avatar. It's a good idea though.
I'm think I would make it more:

I suppose that's true, but the card interaction is not there. The signature spell is one that reflects the nature of the avatar. There needs to be some sort of mechanical connection.
Hell, it might work best as a simple brute:
Guy2WB
Creature - Human Soldier
First Strike
When ~ enters or leaves the battlefield, destroy a permanent you control and a permanent you don't control of the same type.
4/4

I like the losing life activated ability more. It's harsh.
I think our card has to be :symb::symw: it seems a little weird for his signature spell to be out of his colors.
Bribe Guy :symw::symb:
Creature - Human Advisor
If a spell or ability would target a creature you control, you pay may to have it target a non-creature permanent you control instead.
1/1
It was ironic when The Family had to being paying protection fees themselves.
Wording is surely off. I don't know how much this works with the color pie but it a) protects our legend b) is a human and can be sacrificed and c) synergizes nicely with our guys first ability.

No problem on the cards. It's definitely the least I can do to help with the contest.
The only problem with this card is it doesn't have an ability that's triggered either when entering or leaving the battlefield.
