Legendary Flavor Text - *Circuit Challenge*
Have you ever read the flavor text on the cards in your collection, I mean really read it? have you ever noticed how they often mention characters who have never had a card? I think you guys could make some cards for these cardless characters. Keep in mind that you should have a link that leads to the original flavor text. Your entries can be any legendary permanent or Planeswalker. You are limited to three entries.
Prizes:
1st place: 5 favorites, a follow, and a trophy.
2nd place: 4 Favorites, a follow
3rd place: 3 Favorites and the privilege to choose an honourable mention.
All honourable mentions get 1 favorite.
Ends March 1st
Please note that it is ok to make Fblthp. @TrippleBoggey3 can call dibs if no one else has done it. (Just kidding.)
@TrippleBoggey3 has generously given up his dibs
@Faiths_Guide I've highlighted the important bits for you.
*Now a part of the Circuit Challenge

2) Isn't this just your old contest, flavor text commanders?
1. Changed
2. Does it matter? I like the idea and I wanted to do it again. Note that the rules have been changed to allow Fblthp.

I don't really care, just think it will get lest entries. I'll still probably enter.
How about you can make any character/card (legendary or not) from any flavor text? It wouldn't have to be said by them, but could just be mentioned.

@Rednaxela This doesn't really matter, but your cyclops has ten fingers.
@KJMartin Extending it to non-legendaries would make it too easy. I have already rephrased the rules to allow just a mention.
He has some of the best flavour texts in the game:
Afari, Tales
(Especially this one)
@dnaidu Nice card.

Ranaj appeared in the flavor text of a few cards from Kaladesh and Aether Revolt.

@Flatfish I'm not sure the guildless have a gate.
Thanks! Glad you like it.
