Dreadful ability is the opposite of Skulk ability, but there has already been creatures which can't be blocked by creatures with lesser power. I just put that mechanic into a keyword.

Given mtgcardsmith's formatting for the contest, I'd write the last ability as shown below.
-----
Moonlight - As long as Luna is risen, you control enchanted creature and it must attack or block if able.
Whenever you gain control of enchanted creature, untap it. If it doesn't have haste, it gains haste.

Hopefully this is helpful!
Any thoughts on this? I intended it to be a really strong card with fair costs and a bit of a fun mechanic to build around but I'm really iffy on it's power and the 4 mana "Better brainstorm" effect. How about the wording? It seemed alright to me when I made it, but I'm unsure how putting a pile onto the battlefield would properly be worded.
The biggest issue would be getting the proper mana for it. Sure it's nice if you manage it, and with an effective scry 4 draw 2+miracle party it's absolutely broken in certain decks, it's just not quite feasible without building a deck around that specific card.
A slight phrasing issue of the second ability would be "you may pay 7GUR and exile it. If you do..."
I would recommend as a whole for the card dropping the second ability altogether, making it a 2/3 and changing it to a legendary creature.
Either that or make it 2GUR casting cost, same P/T and reduce the transcendence cost to 4 or 5+GUR, although I still recommend giving it legendary.
It isn't named, so it shouldn't be legendary.
Why?
My biggest problem with this card currently is its starting mana cost. I can't tell if it's too good or too weak, though it may be neither. Any thoughts?
Comparing it to Ophiomancer that sees very limited play, it feels fair as you have to pay a cost and don't have a choice on when. Since Ophiomancer has seen so limited amount of play, I think your card is balanced.
I didn't make the card.
However, this has hexproof. That's my biggest problem with the mana cost--does it also cover the hexproof?
Yeah, since you're not getting much value from that part. Although, I'd avoid it and develop it in a different aspect.
Keep in mind Ophiomancer creates tokens on each upkeep and therefore every turn. Which is a big boon.
Edit: The only tipping point is it's excellent for attacking and blocking. Which may be a problem for lower rarity cards. Although keep in mind three hard colored mana is devastating.
What do you mean by 'develop it in a different aspect?' I'm sorry--It's almost midnight and I'm focusing on too many things. I can barely think straight right now...
No problem, I meant either using different keywords or have some sort of ability that benefits from crowds of tokens. For example, an affect that scales off the amount of tokens created or even a triggered ability.
I don't want this card to be too big--it's only uncommon. I have noticed that a couple of my Rakdos cards have involved token creation, so I might be able to make an enchantment to benefit token generation.
Okay, that's fair. I'd change the hexproof though as it's unfun on token generators.
Alright. My second choice for an evergreen on this creature was flying. That way, it can be targeted while still being evasive.
On Faceless Loyalists?
Yeah.
Makes no sense.
How so? I guess the art doesn't make sense with them, but the only other thing I could think of would be skulk, and that makes even less sense to me.
