Threnody is exactly what I wanted Resonance to be.

I might have to steal that wording.

Wow. Resonance is a thing? Was the name of a keyword in my set, albeit quite different.

Shazzeh, being the awful person he is, has informed me that Event is also magic terminology, and thus unavailable. CKY suggested Invocations. Are there any other options that seem feasible?

ok

Didn't know you had a set. Guess I now know where that mechanic comes from.
It's a reimplementation of a mechanic I made for a contest in 2012, at which point it was basically Resonance except the exile clause. However, I didn't like the Demigod of Revenge issues it had, and flexible mana costs just made the design space a lot better to work with.

I already gave my comments card by card as I was transcribing the set, but it bears repeating that this is the Mownest set I've ever seen.

Well, somebody has to.
As an aside, I added a may clause to Adamant Skirmisher for less feel-awful moments (and added attacking or blocking there as well).
I'd also suggest that if you are intent on removing the umlauts, then you change it to Drossvam, so it's at least not a really silly composite word.

Removing umlauts is good because special characters make it a pain to search for a card or add it to a deck.

Is Refraction Skulker supposed to always name Griselbrand or is it only supposed to gain the ability if the other creature is on the battlefield?

The latter.
I believe it also gains granted abilities from e.g. auras, although that probably comes down to layers.

All the commons, if I didn't do anything wrong.
White seems a bit shallow, also having most of it's good cards be 2 drops in a set with 5 common 2 mana mana rocks might make it a bit weak, the 3/5 trenody is probably a beating if you get enough of them and the 3/2 flyer is good, but after that it seems a bit lacking, at least at first glance.

EDIT: mown is right, recruiter costs 3 mana not four.

You missed Recruiter, which is a really strong incentive to be white. On an entirely unrelated note, I noticed that I have neglected putting Glory cards in Red, it's underrepresented compared to other mechanics. And I accidentally deleted an important Madness card in red, which I don't know how I managed to, but I've done it with several others as well so I'm not all that surprised.

Anyway, the */* Spirit is supposed to be a roleplayer in BW, and Heroic Skirmish is intended as an archetype card for RW. I also have high hopes for the 1/1 First Strike, but I need to play with the format to see how it works out. I don't play Limited all that often.

After playing one round against invoke, I'm ready to give up Magic forever.

Okay, I have three alternative names for Event. Any thoughts on season, epoch or era?
I kind of really don't want to have to write "Invocations can't be invoked."
