  @undeadzombie if I'm not mistaken the champion from the theriad was a human female which heavily alluded to Elspeth the current chamion of the sun

  @undeadzombie and @thenightbringer It said in that post that the champion wasn't a person or a presence, just a title that Heliod gives to beings he deemed as Heroes, such as Elspeth, for basically being an awesome force of good. The Theriad quotes were stories written about those chosen by Heliod.So technically, your card goes against the flavor text, not that I don't think its a cool idea. Just saying.

  @UndeadZombie22 Is there a quote that "The Champion" itself says?
  @TastyCheez Is there a quote that Rondor himself says?
  @Sauron123 Is there a quote that mentions Plaith at all?
  If you will go back a couple comments, you will see I have already rejected Fblthp for the same reasons.
  
  @TastyCheez and @Kinojitsu_Asahi There isn't a limit of entries.

  @IanLowenthal Ah, I don't think there is, I just thought the card had to provide some hint to the commander.

  While in KTK, Arel was a Temur shaman known as "Arel the Whisperer," in DTK, however, she is in the Atarka clan, known as "Arel, Unseen Whisperer." The original flavor texts for the KTK Arel are here:

  Here's Lord Hilneth. He fears no army or beast, but his assault cannot stand with the morning fog, and he wishes that everyone in his kingdom could have a suit of mail like his.
  
  
  
  Here he is, featured on the beloved card "Fog"

  Yawgmoth, the biggest of bads who had become a god to rule phyrexia. (previously dominaria)
  
  
  
  He's been mentioned in too many cards, and i don't want to flood the comments so just look for yourself here.

  @Emeraldragon17 Whoa, that is powerful!
• Emeraldragon17

  October 2016

  @IanLowenthal As it should be, any god should be powerful, the theros gods were a bit under-powered that aside, but yawgmoth being the all powerful being he is it should be a bit busted (Even though he probably should be {b}{b}{b}{b} or {1}{b}{b}{b}, I went with it because necropotence is that cost and yawgmoths will is {2}{b} so I think it works. I'm aware that yawgmoth hasn't actually said anything in text, but he has been referenced a lot, so I hope that's qualified.
