Upon first seeing it, it's actually pretty hype, the no block clause being standard fare and fine. Although it was really the bestow that got to me...
Four mana, for a +2/+1 buff, with the added ability of not blocking. Something felt pretty wrong. And then comes the easy realization that the bestow ultimately is going to become a method for your aggro Minotaurs to not get blocked and die, assuming that your damage output won't be overtaken by the +2 power you're giving your foe, unless it's Wall of Frost or anything of the sort.
So in the end, is this decent early startup also going to be the buffer for r/b minotaurs? Who knows.
Personality:
Headstrong and persevering despite not having a corporeal form any longer. She is selfish due to her insecurities about her past and current state of mortality. There is a yearning for, something, although she is not sure what it is yet.
Good Traits:
She stops for little as she has nothing else to lose. One to try hardest. Highly impartial or indifferent to things, leaving her initially on even ground when observing things before taking a side.
Bad Traits: She is selfish when it comes to dealing with things, her first before all. A superiority complex and a tendency to belittle others when she is feeling down. She isn't sensitive to others and it will take time for her to remember that other beings also have emotional states.
Background:
Red.
That was the first thing Kella saw upon waking up, with no memory of anything save for her name. Picking herself up from the crimson shore of one of the plane's numerous islands, Kella looked around and instinctively tried to squeeze the water from her gown, only it wasn't wet, nor was it stable as it phased through the sands. Kella figured that she was dead, and responded with mild panic before regaining her composure. She had to find out what was going on.
Appearance:Kella has auburn hair, although it isn't as visibly so as her form glows a pale cerulean, ghastly. She is wearing a formal gown, one she assumes nobles wore to fancy dinner balls. Possibly the drab ones that were not to her taste, whatever that may be. She has a normal stature for a young adult woman, save for the slight floating which she tries her best not to as it ruined her posture, dangling feet.

Startled by the flying creature's advance, he waves a hand and a being of static bursts out, striking the creature. Afterwards it fades as quickly as it comes.

Otto is startled as the woman collapses, although suspective that it could be the oppressing heat.he picks her up and lets her lean on a wall, chanting a small word of power to aid the both of them.

Creatures you control have protection from red.
Whenever an opponent casts a red spell, you may gain 1 life.
At the beginning of each end step, if you've been dealt damage by at least two red sources, sacrifice ~. A circle of protection; venting the air of fire and lightning, although not of meteors.
A fine ring surrounds the two of us, the feeling of fresh air breezing within. As she rises, I take her pack and share the weight of her belongs between ourselves. "Don't strain. Strength regain. Hot out here."
Having finished their haranguing of the curator, Otto follows everyone else to the shop.
As he observes the wares, he gains an interest in one of the numerous staves in the store and buys:
the Tridron Staff (-150G). "Not mop. Much like mop. Have to do."
He overhears the florist's plea for haggling, although is quite sure that the price for something so mass produced would not be lowered.
He reaches into his pouch and pulls out 50 coins, handing it to Graethyl.
"Don't pay back coin. Pay back deed," he smiles and lumbers off to the Pylian Stones, planning on taking the Beacon to the location labeled "Thermal Caverns". (Er, same situation of too many moves as Chambles.)
Otto stands in mild thought, the actions of the team taking a different turn from what he had intended, although he might as well assist them. Greater good, no evils. Are there? Not just. But continue. He frowned lightly, sunlight peeking through the windows.
Although right as it began, it ended, a cloudbank covering the ceiling and the orc reluctantly taking the curator into custody.
He steadily puts a hand over Halliwold's mouth, preventing him from yelling for others.

Otto pulls out a small bowl of incense, recalling one of the things he had which helped when clearing the miasmic sludge from the areas of the ensorcellers. He hands it to Halliwold. "No bad intent. Good of all. Fix Pylian. Stop ruination modern culture."
On a side note, Magic now has two Starfish..es
