My entry is a nod to the trope of a warlock/witch's collection of magical and dangerous animals. Menagerie Diabolist collects a critter every turn that is specialized for his needs. And if the Orc Wizard's collection is varied enough, he can sacrifice them to fuel his profane rituals.

Black's most powerful effects tend to come at the cost of life totals and sacrifice (however enjoyable). This shows how a little, willing, self destruction can set you ahead!
Go on, if their souls will buy me power, take them. Oh, they're all the same value, right?
BRING IN THE DEMONS!
(Flavorfully, this is tied to Dominaria, both by the quote from Whisper and by the nonlegendary mechanical tie.)
Wait, a white-blue card? This should be disqualified immediately! But hear me out.
One of the most well known tropes involving warlocks is demonic summoning. This has been referenced endlessly, both in MtG and on this thread. Many of these involve making pacts with these demons, a classic 'deal with the devil'. These pacts are typically followed down to the last word; the alternative being death. But what if, I thought, they could be broken?
The card itself tells a little story, about a cult that makes a desperate deal with a powerful demon, summoning it to their world, before realising the contract was 'rigged' and they were to be sacrificed to the demon, who slays all but one of them, Razak. Razak's eyes are opened to the world of deception and lies that his brotherhood lived in. Enraged, he summons all his energy and prepares to recant the summoning, banishing the demon to where it came from. Did he succeed? I think the answer lies in his name.

First card, first contest, why not?

An aura made for someone who has embraced that they're haunted.

Might as well give this a shot, right?
With flesh scavenged by the Golgari and soul sold to the dimir or Orzhov, the dead shall still rise for me. Even if I couldn't fit the flavor text.
