Odruc Bloodbrewer1BB
Creature - Scorpion Assassin (Uncommon)
First Strike
As Odruc Bloodbrewer enters the battlefield, choose a creature type.
Whenever Odruc Bloodbrewer blocks or is blocked by a creature of the chosen type, it gains deathtouch until end of turn. Some among the Odruc can carefully control the potency of their venom. The result is a chapter of incredibly specialized killers.
1/3
Lore flavour here, Odruc are Scorpionfolk, but are far more insectoid than say, a human torso with scorpion legs. They're primarily black but their overarching tribe is Jund.
You're right that Arthropods as a group are a bit confusing (I considered changing it to "Bugs" and including some other stuff like Slugs and pests in the grouping but I feel that that would probably upset some entomologists). I couldn't justify not adding Blinkmoths as arthropods at the same time I added Trilobites in (even if they're an extinct arthropod species there are two of them in existence, much like the number of lands that become Blinkmoths).

Basically it's the creepy-crawly tribal name.
