Lettie dismisses the transfigured bough as soon as it's clear that The Thing is trying to escape from the shop, and she immediately sets about trying to identify what the young lady drank. She can already see that the thorns have left cuts in the skin, but those are superficial; they aren't what's killing the poor lady. At the very least, she wasn't convulsing, which would put the counter-sedatives like wormwood and mugwort out of the question. They had expressed pain, so it was unlikely to be any of the opiates, hypnotics, or painkillers. If it were intense pain in the stomach or heart, it could very well be aconite, in which case, the antidote would be mandrake or charcoal... but haste would just as easily kill this woman. Best to stay methodical. Lettie checks the woman's pulse, the nodes under her jaw, and tries to evaluate her breathing as well. She also looks for hints of rising bile, and to see if the lips are turning blue. As Lettie begins to settle on a conclusion, she becomes distracted. Why am I doing this? She probably can't pay me. It's going to be difficult to even save her... but they also spoke as "we". She might know something about whatever That Thing was.Thorned Serpent   Creature — Plant SnakeDeathtouch Whenever a creature dealt combat damage by Thorned Serpent this turn dies, destroy all permanents that were attached to that creature. 1/3  Creature - Construct  ~ can't attack or block unless it has a permanent attached to it. 3/3 Thorned Serpent: Strong in the adequate enviroment, but seems fun. Maybe 3 is too much toughness for a cheap deathtoucher tho. 8/10 |

"You lost to squirrels?" Lettie barely manages to stay within the realm of propriety in tone and expression. "Normally, the best I could give for handling groups would be pale morningstar powder, but you'd probably burn down an entire forest if I gave you that. I think a brimstone cloud with its ignition component removed might do fine for choking out... squirrels." Lettie coughs, and dares for a moment to look into the construct's eyes. If it weren't a human, it couldn't be that great of a risk... right? Don't fall for that. Zero's eyes dart around to find the voice. It clearly wasn't the merchant, but. "I would like to acquire some of each of those. I will ensure not to use the pale morningstar powder near flammable environments"

After a few seconds the girl opens her eyes. "What happenned? Who are you?" She doesn't seem poisoned or ill at all. The youngster stands up, looking very confused. "I feel... empty... incomplete..." Then, she falls to the floor again, sobbing uncontollabilly. "Where are you? Come back... Please!" She punches the floor. Big tears fall over her skeletal cheecks. "It was beautiful... Don't leave me!!!" She looks around, mostly ignoring Lettie. If one ignores the signs of hunger and malnourishment she seems fairly healthy, like if the Thing absorbed everything the bottle contained.Empty Host Creature - Construct ~ can't attack or block unless it has a permanent attached to it. 3/3  All artifacts lose all abilities. 3/1

"No, not quite. Clean water is trivial for me to find, and I can create a good deal of alcohols myself. I have no demand for those things.

Lettie can feel her chest tighten just looking at the construct's eyes. She gets the sensation that she's looking at something unbearably bright. They were too lifelike, and this would be easier if she could pretend they were just mechanisms. At least they weren't looking directly at her. In fact, why were they flitting all about the place?

Lettie can't help but cackle at that. "Apologies, I'm not friends with any men at the moment, and I didn't hear any man's voice either. Say..." Lettie pulls out a piece of scrap paper, an already sharpened quill, and a spare bottle of ink. She dips the quill, before offering it to the construct plume-first. "I'd love to 'spread my talents' across that realm, but I tend to forget names. Could you write its name down for me, please? Any language will do." Lettie keeps the bottle of ink close in one hand, and taps the paper with the other.

Divert Attention — An utterly brutal card against anyone tapped out, or even close, allowing you to wipe a board one-sided. Also leery of white tempo on this scale. Storming off does typically give you better things to do, like win the game, but that's just a matter of opportunity cost of how utterly crazy storm is. Positive notes are this is a creative attempt at storm that doesn't win the game on its own, and it's also an effect I wish we'd see more often. Also has functionality on top of just the amount of mana your opponent has to spend, which can lead to interesting splits. 7/10 |

Lettie is unsure of how to approach, and stays close by, in case the girl tries to drink anything she shouldn't, again.

"I'm not certain why you can't, but the reason for my request was that when you tried to speak the name earlier, all that came out was gibberish. Considering that, and the voice only you heard, I think you might be... well, I'm not certain which word to use here, but you might be damaged. It could be why you don't remember." Lettie motions to the missing arm. "I don't know how you met Brayden, or what might have happened between you two, so I can't say whether he did or didn't do this." It briefly occurs to Lettie that Brayden might have been 'possessed' at the time, but she doesn't mention it. "Lastly, most people call this place The Arena. A lot of strange things happen here."

After a few seconds, the gal stops soobing and stands up, facing Lettie. "What happened? Do you have any idea?" She looks around, still visibly confused. "I need to find it! The black thing!

Draining Parasite — Fascinating that this replaces the power lost with the pseudo-damage ability.

"You're that certain. In that case, who knows why your map doesn't-" Lettie cuts herself off as she notices the construct raise a hand towards one of her charges.

Lettie seems to take a sudden interest in the floor. "...I must apologize as well. It was my presumption that you were speaking to me, despite the obvious..." She shakes her head. "If I must guess, you must have been having that conversation with someone else, but I could neither see nor hear them. I only saw you frozen, speaking." This felt familiar...Come to think of it, this thing mentioned Brayden by name. Lettie realizes that she has her hand up to her face for no reason, and lets it fall. "I don't think you need weapons at all. I think it would be best if you resolved these damages first. Imagine how terrible it would be if you experienced... whatever that was, while in combat." Lettie grabs a handful of supplies, such as those she doesn't want the construct to steal in her absence. "Sadly, I can not help you, and I must be going now.

Inquisition — My first guess for this would be four CMC, as for five you can usually remove a creature outright, and with upside. It does cover nicely against creatures that haven't yet the field yet, which is interesting. 8/10 |

"We are Aeterna of Aetenus, the glorious city. We do not bend to intimidation, so do not test us." Aeterna looks around the shop before turning her attention back to Lettie. "Now who are you and what did you want with us, enough to stalk us?" Return to Roots is incredibly simple but incredibly effective. My only holdup is that it may be slightly too good in limited, if that's what it's aimed for. 9/10 Shed DisguisesEnchantment When Shed Disguises enters the battlefield, draw a card. Whenever a player draws a card, they reveal their hand. |

Whenever a player draws a card, they reveal their hand. Play with your hand revealed. Blunt Lewo's base power and toughness are each equal to the number of land cards in your hand. */*
Shed Disguises — At this point you might as well have the hands always revealed, as players almost always draw a card every turn, and in most cases, new cards can not enter the hand without being drawn (and those that do aren't hidden for long). Otherwise, on development side, Telepathy is already a decent multiplayer card, and making an effect symmetrical doesn't entirely discount its value. Add in the common standard increase for a card being 2 generic, and I'd say this would be more at home at 1W. 5/10 |

(I have decided that at least for now, Battle Boards isn't something that interests me, so after this rating I will probably stop checking BB.)
Blunt Lewo is super dope, 9/10

A clicking metallic spider scurries up the counter, and perches in front of the coin jar.

Play with the top card of your library revealed. Nettle Snitch doesn't untap during your untap step unless the top card of your library is a land card. 2/2
Scouting Droid — 1's a pittance, and so is the trigger. No complaints here. 9/10 |

"Acknowledged. Purpose: Accquire "Mana". Uncertain of search queries. Elaborate?" A small jar ejects from the robot, and clatters to a halt on the counter.
Poison Vat Artifact At the beginning of your upkeep, you may exile the top card of your library attached to ~. T,  : Destroy target creature. Repeat this process for each card exiled with ~.
Nettle Snitch - Strong, but I believe pushed to a believable degree. I like the design and rarity. 9/10.

Screeching Bowl Artifact When Screeching Bowl enters the battlefield, if you spent to cast it, you may destroy target artifact. , : Target player puts the top two cards of their library into their graveyard. Every scrape of the pestle crushes ingredients and spirits.
Poison Vat — It is not necessary to specify that the exiled card is attached to the Vat; It's already tracked by which card exiled those cards, which is how the scaling works. It's a neat way of tracking growth on a card though. Developmentally, however, the card is pretty brutal, being able to curve into destroying two creatures, and then scaling further. By my estimate, the card breaks even between one and two untaps, and from then on is excess value gained on every activation. I suppose, however, that it's slow enough that it's fair, even against decks that can't reliably remove it. 8/10 |

"Negative. Purpose of gathering is analysis and ascertainment of boundaries. Hypothesis: Data to be used for synthesis."
Deathly Dynamo Artifact When ~ enters the battlefield, draw a card. Exile five cards from your graveyard: Add  .
Screeching Bowl - A neat little card which I could see being used in any number of situations. Well costed and with an appropriate rarity. 10/10.
