Also I love the implied flavor of this card. Eternals (both card that have Eternal in their name and cards with Eternalize) are creatures that have passed all the trials and been granted an honorable death by Hazoret. Kitty here kicked all kinds of ass.

Well there go the theories that the Adorned Pouncer cat went through the trials.

Anyway, this is a very solid beater.



Confirmation that my Dream was not only not just incidentally crushed, it was exactly my Dream's card that prompted it:

JL: Wait, does this mean a Cat passed all the Trials?

AF: JL's comment is funny. I guess we need another story beyond the Trials about how Eternals are chosen.

ELI: There's also a Manticore and an Ammit. Bolas wanted a petting zoo of doom.

ID: Maybe this is Bolas's Mr. Bigglesworth.


Dammit! My hopes and dreams are all kinds of dashed. :cry::rofl::cry::rofl::cry::rofl:

We even had Initiate's Companion in AKH. Was it so hard to believe?! To allow this fleeting...
Wait! That's it!! The ammit and the manticore may have gotten a free pass, but I take Initiate's Companion as proof that cats competed in the trials!!!
I will go down with this ship!
Cat x Worthy Champion FUREVER!!!
:doh:

You may enjoy this story someone wrote on tumblr.

Hazoret had heard the tales about this cat. Adopted by one of the young initiates, it’s mewling cry alerted the crop to a threat, and allowed them to complete Oketra’s trial. Its curiosity guided the crop through Kefnet’s maze. By the time Rhonas’ trial was at hand, the cat could fend for itself, and helped save its cropmates from the basilisk’s venom. It protected its master all throughout Bontu’s trial, and avenged her death when another cropmate tore out her heart. The remaining crop insisted it come with for Hazoret’s own trial, that it had proven its worth, and against all odds it had passed the test.

The god raised her spear. “You have been found worthy… whiskers.”

The cat mewled proudly.

Yet that was not the end of the story. As with all Worthy Dead the cat passed through the Gates of the Afterlife to be made eternal, shiny, and blue.

The Scarab God opens the vaults of the great necropolis, releasing Bolas' army of Eternals. What other facilities hold the non-trial Eternals is another question, but the legion storms Naktamun, fulfilling the will of the God-Pharaoh who oversees it all from the sky. Nicol Bolas takes note of the leading edges of his army's conquests, squints, and then sees, and wonders out loud

Bolas: "... why is there a housecat in my army? Who in their right mind allowed this? I clearly didn't kill Hazoret dead enough for this mockery-"

At that moment, Whiskers the Eternal springs forward against a resolute phalanx of surviving initiates. In an azure blur of claws, he cuts through them, the mortal defenders of Naktamun becoming little more than a shower of gore, their hopes shattered and lives ended before the rank-and-file eternals even made it within striking range.

Bolas blinks.

Bolas: "Who's a good kitty?"

Or it just sits there making horrible mineral-on-mineral scrapey noises as it licks its ass

You say that like it's mutually exclusive or something? :-P
