Designed by artist Jason Kang, this common card features a 6-mana 5/5 Crab Horror with a distinctive blue color identity. The card’s mechanical design offers strategic depth through its Ward {2} ability, which forces opponents to pay mana to target it with spells or abilities. Additionally, it possesses an activated ability that allows it to become unblockable for the turn, provided the controller owns a card in exile.

Collectors of the Innistrad: Crimson Vow set often seek out the foil version of this card for its visual appeal and gameplay utility. The card’s straightforward yet potent mechanics reflect the set’s focus on horror-themed creatures with unique interactions.
