Lackey - Only ever gets +1/+1 at the most in archenemy since schemes are almost always once a turn. 6/10."Not too keen on explaining the entirety of my anatomy to you but if you insist you insist." Yakana lets out a small smug chuckle at her own joke. "You're a planeswalker, clearly. My, it seems many people here are. I don't work like you or most others. For me to have a real grip on the plane I'm in, I need an anchor, something to tie me to the plane physically and mentally. HE took that from me, and now I need a new anchor, which is going to be such a chore, hun, you have no idea. So, the man needs to die. He needed to anyhow but now I feel the need to tell people about it. I'll tell you what, if you bring me his head on a platter, I'll owe you a favor. Anything that dirt covered head could imagine. Sound fair enough? You can buy money, information, or death! Death is the most fun but do make sure they deserve it. I don't slaughter innocents you know. Yakana waggles her finger a bit and crosses her legs, taking a sitting position midair as she speaks.Energetic outburst 
Instant 
Target creature gets +1/+0 until end of turn. it deals damage equal to it's power to target creature or planeswalker.
Vidus shakes his head. "I'm not a hitman. I don't go around killing people." He turns away, hiding his face from Yakana. He reaches around to his back and grabs his shovel, planting it into the ground in front of him. "But," he takes a hand off the shovel and turns around to look at Yakana. Vidus's expression is muddled. At a glance, his face is stoic and devoid of emotion. But his eyes betray a burning sort of anger, kept deep, deep within himself. "There is some information I need." With one hand, he removes the shovel from the ground and swings it around, bringing it to rest on his shoulder. "I'll do it. Point me to where he is and I'll bring his head and your anchor back."
Energetic Outburst: Decent. I like it. It's like a fight spell in red. Don't really know how to rate this honestly. It's a common. It's fine but not spectacular, like commons should be. I guess that's a 10/10? idk. 10/10Ghitu Outrider  Creature — Human Nomad  Whenever you cast a spell that targets ~, ~ gets +1/+0. [2/2]

In the distance, Yakana can see a cloaked warrior with a bow on her back riding a horse-sized cat. As she comes closer, one can make out a shield on her arm, inscribed with a large pair of wings. Yakana may or may not recognize the warrior from the battle against the Creatures of Elsewhere, though the rest of the chaos may have obscured her from Yakana's notice. Upon reaching a suitable distance, that the fox may hear her, the warrior calls out: "O Lady of Branching Paths, you were a sight to see upon the battlefield, and I commend your efforts. I hear you are wise and knowledgeable. I've questions to ask, if you do not mind."Conjuring To Thought a WhimUnchained Inferno    Creature - Elemental  Haste, Trample At the beginning of your end step, ~ deals 3 damage to you. 6/3 "An uncontrolled flame will hurt everyone involved.

Stellar Discovery: 6/10. So, I like the idea, the thing is, this is just Opt without the scry, and less usable. Atlani dismounts as Yakana approaches. "Ah, I understand. I'm sure I can muster some form of payment." Lulak's blank eyes look into Yakana's as they keep eye contact. As it breaks, Lulak looks back to Atlani, who reaches into a pocket, brow furrowed, and pulls out a handkerchief with which she picks up the seed, cleaning off what spit there may be. She is visibly lost as she struggles to keep up with the plethora of proposals. "I am looking for a specific sword, one by the name of Selem, who talks and planeswalks. I am no planeswalker in my own right; it was his spark that brought me here, and hopefully it will be his that brings me back to Tarkir." She holds the seed up to her eye, examining it. "Now, what is it that this tree will do?" Satisfied with her rough examination, she wraps it up with the handkerchief and puts it in her pocket. "Or, what is it that was stolen? By who?"

Yakana shoots up several feet into the air without making a single move, as if simply slid along the Y axis, legs crossed, pearls in hand."Do tell, what are your plans with me? All I did was participate in a simple business transaction, and you would charge at me in such a brutish way! For shame. Perhaps, with I remaining at a safe distance, we can discuss this like civil beings. It won't do you much to try and catch him, as you know, and I would wager you couldn't do much to catch me. I simply can't just give you your pearls back; I paid well for them. If you could pay me in kind, then they're yours once more. I don't mean coin either, darling. I deal in secrets and information. Whatever you do, don't act rashly.: Yakana's face turns deadly serious for a moment before clearing her throat, and smirking once again. "I'm not paying for something that's mine!" she yells up to Yakana. She growls at the fox and narrows her eyes. The air shimmers with heat and the woman vanishes. Momentarily, a wave of heat appears over Yakana's head, with Haide and her heavy metal legs falling just behind... Act Rashly  Sorcery  You may double target creature's power. If a source would deal damage to that creature this turn, it deals double that damage instead. "Fastest way to get me to do something is tell me that I can't!"
Come, Join My Merriment! - sure 8/10
