Time Machine! Mini Challenges! Challenge 4 The Golden Age of Piracy
My new favorite kind of challenges, mini challenges. For this on we will be going to a new time period of human history for each mini challenge.
1. The winner of each challenge will choose the next time and place we go to. Doesn't have to be an exact time (Ancient Greece for example)
2. The time period must be from actual human history
3. You can make a real or mythical beast from that time, people from that time period, a specific person who was alive during that period (legendary creature), an artifact (weapon, armor, building, etc.), a place (land or artifact), or an instant or sorcery that represents something from that period. Also you could make a planeswalker out of a person from that period.
4. The winner of each mini challenge gets two favorites in addition to choosing where we go next
5. You can enter as many as you want for each challenge
6. Entries must be balanced and realistic

Time travelling alone gets lonely. Everyone needs a few companions.
The card only allows you to choose where you go in time once, unless you sacrifice a legendary creature. Then someone else gets it. I think it fits pretty well with the challenge.
Sorry didn't realize I used the same image as you.

Looks like we'll be time traveling by book.
I'll give you 24 hours to select the next time and location, but the sooner the better.
Tell me which two cards you want favorited. Or i can just choose two.
Alright...how about we go to ancient China before the Qing Dynasty?
清朝 or 秦朝
One is the last dynasty, one is the one after the Zhou dynasty.
I found barely anything about it. One thing I read said it was considered an omen. So I made a custom keyword called omen. I'm sure someone has already made one called omen, but whatever.
The nian was believed to come from the mountains in the winter and attack villages. Eventually people figured out that the nian was scared of the color red. Ever since, the chinese dress up in red and shoot fire works during the Chinese New Years to scare off the Nian.
Flavor text: "His memories of battles long past strengthened his resolve to see the battles of the future through."
Flavor text: "His memories of those he'd slain only served to force him into slaying more."
Both cards bear authentic Qing dynasty names.
