"I... see. Well, I wish you luck. Come find me if you end up needing assistance I can provide. Sorry to not be more useful without being invasive." I can't even fathom why someone would do something like this. Unless this 'Arena' is just a big testing grounds? "On second thought, have you asked other people? Someone had to have seen something." Disassemble Sorcery Return target nonartifact permanent to its owner's hand. If you control at least 3 artifacts, instead return that permanent to the top of its owner's library. Then that permanent's owner mills 3 cards. Piece Together: I kinda like it, but it feels off somehow. Most of the time, other than certain tight life scenarios, I wouldn't bother with 2 extra mana for some life. Phyrexian mana being a good denominator. That said, I don't quite know if that was intentional? I'm not the biggest fan of it either way. Monoblack getting permanent reanimation is a cool one too. I feel something like this deserved to be a bit more pushed to promote paying the glitch more often. 8/10. Robotic Chupacabra: 8/10.

As a surgical extraction type effect, to hit a response against your deck, it only hits one copy since the other would have to go to top of library. Otherwise, it feels like a tacked on one-card exile (which face down is also kinda weird, usually they know what you hit with something like this) on top of forcing a bad draw. Feels weird, but accomplishes what it sets out to, I guess? I'd probably make it 3 mana and hit 3 cards, just to hit more of the answers to your deck. 7/10.

"That said, I'm curious enough. I will agree to tinker with it and see if I can restore operation. You can either leave it in my care or come with to my cramped shed, but I'll know where to find you if you do not. As for payment, consider it a favor for the last time." (Not quite sure if I'm to determine whether I can make this work or not, or if we need to keep interaction, or if I just need to ask cajun going forth. I also deeply apologize for how long its been. Life's been weird lately.) Corpse Cretin Artifact Creature - Scarecrow Horror Menace When a spell or ability an opponent controls causes you to discard ~, create a token copy of it. You may return ~ from your graveyard to your hand. 2/1 Deniable Edict: Powerful, but probably fine. Even okay in limited I would think, as creatures tend to be much more plentiful and of much less value per creature. 9/10

"Without knowing exactly what it operates on, it's hard to clarify for this case. Were there perhaps any sparks coming from it when you found it? Maybe a liquid or even aether leak? Without knowing where it came from, any hints would vastly improve its chances."

I did not witness any sparks when I had found it, no, nor any fluids." Lettie also thinks to herself that there had been neither such thing when she crushed it, which means that she is unlikely to contradict herself. "If I knew this construct's origin, this entire exercise would be pointless; the origin is what is in question. I will accompany you for some time, though I will likely have to leave infrequently to attend to my business. I will also try not to distract you in your work. Now then, if you would lead the way..."
It seems the best way to handle interactions with the mangled drone would be to "attack" Cajun's board. Corpse Cretin — Obstinate abilities are typically rare, though I could be mistaken. I think this is an impressive twist on the ability, though it is unlikely to be tripped more than once. 8/10

"I... see. Well, I wish you luck. Come find me if you end up needing assistance I can provide. Sorry to not be more useful without being invasive." I can't even fathom why someone would do something like this. Unless this 'Arena' is just a big testing grounds? "On second thought, have you asked other people? Someone had to have seen something." Disassemble Sorcery Return target nonartifact permanent to its owner's hand. If you control at least 3 artifacts, instead return that permanent to the top of its owner's library. Then that permanent's owner mills 3 cards. "When I awoke, there was no one in the vicinity. I am unsure anyone would be able to assist that way." Disassemble iunno about this tagging lands 8/10

Arcanis Finds Neeyo once more "Hey it's been a bit of time but I thought I'd track you down and let you know the Guild Hall is now up and running. My next task is going to be tracking down folks who need a hand with things and get some funds in our coffers. What have you been up to lately?" Friendly Face Artifact Creature- Construct Shapeshifter You may have Friendly Face enter the battlefield as a copy of any creature on the battlefield. 2/2 "Hey. Good seeing you around again. I do regret to inform you, I'm wrapping up some things here for a bit, but after I need to go report back to my employer. I've gathered enough information, or lack thereof, to satisfy this initial investigation. I don't how long that'll take, but it could be some time before I return." (there's plans to switch characters in a bit, is all.) Mechanism Manager Artifact Creature - Construct Artifact Creature spells you cast cost less to cast. (For example, if you cast an Artifact Creature spell with mana cost , it costs to cast.)1 / 3 (To block if it would like to attack, either before or after copying.)Friendly Face: Interesting enough. Clone/Phyrexian Metamorph but truly colorless. I don't know if you want it to be an artifact in addition to its other types, but if so its missing that clause. A little unexciting as a rare, though. Also, you don't technically have Multityper as a perk I don't think. 7/10
