## Description

Designed by Vincent Christiaens, the card functions as a green sorcery within the trading card game framework. The card’s rules text introduces the "cloak" mechanic, a specific game action distinct from standard creature deployment. When played, the caster examines the top five cards of their library. They may choose two of those cards to cloak, placing the remaining cards back into the library in a random order. Cloaking a card puts it onto the battlefield face down as a 2/2 creature with ward {2}. The owner may turn it face up later by paying its mana cost, provided it is a creature card, revealing its original characteristics and abilities. The card's unique ability to hide creatures on the battlefield offers strategic depth, allowing players to protect valuable assets from opponent removal or targeting. This mechanic distinguishes it from other green sorceries that typically focus on direct damage or creature generation. Collectors often appreciate the foil treatment and the specific card number within the promo checklist. The PMKM subset is part of the broader Murders at Karlov Manor block, and this card number serves as a distinct identifier for collectors tracking specific promotional releases. Understanding the cloak mechanic is essential for players looking to integrate this card into their gameplay strategies effectively.
