its a bit wordy but it works and I looked at another printed card to make sure I had the wording right.

Plunder (When creatures with plunder attack target opponent, that player discards a card at random for each creature with plunder that isn't blocked.)
http://mtgcardsmith.com/view/dread-captain-storr#.VQIoNpU5DIU
Parlay (If a player would cast a spell that targets you or your permanents, Parlay counters that spell if the player has fewer cards in hand than you do. If a spell is countered this way, discard a card to your graveyard.)
These are my official submissions.

Reapermind, and Exile.
Exile: If this creature would be dealt fatal damage, instead exile it, and place X Exile counters on it. Remove one counter at the end of your turn. When you can no longer remove any, return that creature to the Battlefield.
Focus (You may pay (cost) at any time. If you do, focus this creature until end of turn.)

Link to a more complicated card with Focus:

CallousCommentor checked out this guy too, but I might tweak it to mythic rare.
