Uncommon Tribal Challenge
So we all know the usual tribes... Goblins are Red, Wiards are Blue, Soldiers are white and alway are new, Elves are Green, and...we don't talk about zombies after Shadows Over Innistrad.
Then there are the more uncommon tribes, such as white cats, or blue merfolk, or black skeletons, or black/red minotaurs or colorless eldrazi, that sort of thing.
And then there are things that should be actual tribes, as in have a lord and everything, like blue/black fairies.
And the there are things which shouldn't be tribes. Like white hounds, or blue Djinns.
So here's the challenge: make a creature tribe, with its won lore, and own tribe lord (give all creatures of that type +1/+1)
that just shouldn't be. Alligators? Bears? Djinns? Orcs? Snakes? But, they cannot be obscure. For example, Giants, while not a tribe they interact in Lowryn with each other, such as cards that can only do things when you control another giant. So NOTHING MAINSTREAM. And if I see elves you are instakicked!
Have at it!
Prizes:
Winner: Possible Trophy, 2 favorites. I follow you
2nd place: 2 favorites. I follow you
3rd place: 1 favorite, I follow you.
Unlimited entries, but only per one tribe. So NO! You can't have a plant tribe and a lizard tribe!
So what's your tribe gonna be?
Frogs? Dogs? Camels? Shades? Artificers? Horses? You choose!
And yes, Centaurs ARE an official tribe...

I think what you do is:
1) Pick a creature type in MTG that hasn't had its own lord and *SHOULDN'T* have it's own lord (like bears or squirrels or ferrets).
2) Make a lord of that creature type.
3) Write some lore for it.
But I'm not really sure. This challenge is the most confusing I've ever seen.
