Let's Inspire Eachother
The premise of this post isn't really a contest, but I see no other place to put this. It's more of a fun game to play. Basically, we post either Art, A unique card name, Flavor Text, or a Mechanic to mark cards using those criteria. The point of this is to stretch your creativity and comfort zone with magic cards, make fun and balanced cards, and to become a better cardsmith.
Here are the basic rules.
1) You can only post one card per post, based on a piece of Art, Name, Flavor Text, or Mechanic someone else posted.
2) If you submit Art, or if the Name or Flavor Text is a quote, please source who created it if you can find it.
3) Anyone can make a card based off of something. For example, if I submit an art, anyone can make a card based off of it, not only 1 person.
4) You can submit any amount of criteria to make the card with at a time. If you submit a mechanic, you may post a card with an example of it.
To start off, I'll submit a picture:

I want to see what you can all do, have fun, and be constructive in the comments

I'll be posting a card for it today as well.
"Sarith is a runaway experiment of a mad scientist making hybrid creatures to surpass people. Sarith had runaway and fell in love with a Human woman named Alisha, who gave her a home to stay in. After which, they've bonded and grown accustomed to one another."
I'll create a card for the above flavor text now
I did a thing.
Flavor text: "I may not have seen it coming, but I could feel it. Certainly."

Let's have a card called Curse of the Plagueborn
Rule Interactions: (Aside from the following, Rituals act about the same as Equipment!)
1) Ritual cards remain attached to the acquired card for as long that card is face up in exile, a graveyard or the command zone.
1B) Ritual cards remain attached as the acquired card moves between the aforementioned zones.
2) Ritual cards can be attached to any card regardless of the card's controller and/or owner.
Acquire {cost} ({cost}: Attach to target card in exile, a graveyard or the command zone. Acquire only during your turn.)

@Modnation
WARNING: SPOOPY SKELETAL
Name: Dreamer's Dawn
Name: Interplaneswalk [or -ing, if you'd rather]
I think that would work well for a planechase card. I'll see what I can come up with.
Pulse (Whenever you cast an instant or sorcery spell, you get {e}.)
@rednaxela
I hope it's balanced and easy to understand.

Here's an idea for something interesting I want to so you guys try
Snap: Pay X, discard this card from your hand, cast a copy of it, but all numerical values are replaced with X
For example: Snap - Discard 5 cards/Pay 5 mana/Sacrifice 5 creatures: Discard this card from your hand, then draw 5 cards/Exile 5 target things/ etc. etc.
There is no color identity for snap, it goes with all three. It only works on instants, sorceries, and non-land permanents that have enter the battlefield clauses
Here you go @Sullyman!
Here's my game: Create a legendary card named Dhefo, Akh-Crop Captain, or a khenra in Akh crop. (I have a severe Amonkhet addiction xD).
There you go, @TezzeretofCarmot21! I hope he is legendary enough!

I don't know if it's underpowered, overpowered, or even good. I just thought it'd be a fun concept. I couldn't think of a way to implement the undead, and it kinda feels like a bummer. I hope it's good, or someone makes something better/more on theme.
Create an Angel tribal card to combat this one!
