Preferred Pronoun Set:
In the Reborn redesign, I added a character named The Faceless Herald:

The Faceless Herald
Legendary Enchantment Creature — Advisor (M) :wizard:
When The Faceless Herald enters the battlefield, for each card type in all graveyards, you may exile a card with that card type.
Whenever a creature you control deals combat damage to a player, you may play one of the exiled cards without paying its mana cost.
"What better god is there to worship than the one who has no face?"
—Zafar the Mad

3/4

I wanted to hint that maybe Elori, the -aligned sun deity the cultists of Illpyre worshipped, was not all that they seemed, or that they had a twisted inversion of themselves somewhere sewing mischief.

Build a black common that expands upon this theme of becoming faceless, where the brightest lights cast the darkest shadows.

Zealot of the Faceless
Enchantment Creature (C)
Whenever one or more cards are put into exile from anywhere, put a +1/+1 counter on Zealot of the Faceless. This ability triggers only once each turn.
"We have been shown the true path, the true faith. To be everything, we need to be nothing."
2/1

A world split in half? Sounds like a good place for a white knight/ black knight scenario.
Some cards to black knight:
Solar Revoker
Sunchaser Elder
Lightbearer
Aloise's Assistance

Hmmm


Shadowbearer
Menace
When Shadowbearer enters the battlefield, you may return an enchantment card with mana value 2 or less from your graveyard to your hand.
1/3

The original had vigilance so I felt this had to have some keyword.

I kinda feel Deathtouch would mirror Vigilance better: both are also available to green, and both have offensive and defensive utility.

That said, nice design; I regret not thinking of the classic White vs Black dichotomy.

Death touch would have been more fitting, but I wanted to mirror the original's stats. I'm worried that death touch would be too good on a 3 toughness common with upside.

I vote for TP, on the stipulation that Shamebearer would be cut from the set.

Please vote for the card you think should be added to the set.

Those acolytes who channeled Elori's light and grace were rewarded. Those who instead channeled Elori's deceit and judgment were shamed and outcast.
1/3

Shadowbearer has been added to the set with Shamebearer's type line and flavor text.

TP, please set a criterion for a black uncommon.

We don't got a lot of black fliers. We have a weird number of 3 toughness black creatures, so let's not do that.

Make a low toughness black flying creature

Clarification- It doesn't have to 1 toughness. I just noticed that we have a lot of 3 toughness stuff.
