Rationale
5cmc legendary god creature with menace and evasion, designed as a midrange threat in black. The front side is a substantial body; the flip side (Tergrid's Lantern) provides artifact value. Signature in midrange, reanimator, and control shells as a must-answer threat. Tier-1 as a recurring premium finisher in Commander and Brawl formats. Key risk: removal-magnet and slow-setup (5 mana is not trivial).
