Too many absolutely great ones, again. Took forever to decide and could have been completely different picks for each 5 minutes I continued to think about it.

Disturb BBB (You may cast this card from your graveyard transformed for its disturb cost.)

Black Soul
B Enchantment — Aura Curse (R)
Enchant Player
Whenever a creature enchanted player controls would be put into a graveyard from the battlefield, exile it instead. Enchanted player loses life equal to that creature's toughness and draws a card.
If Black Soul would be put into a graveyard from anywhere, exile it instead.

Can I lore here? Imma lore here.

tl;dr — Yup, it's basically what it looks like, feel free to judge the card exlusively mechanically.

Since I read through the Divine Comedy, I've always really wanted a plane based on the Inferno (Rhystic Studies did a spectacular video comparing New Phyrexia to the poem, but I was thinking a touch more litteral- Fire and Brimstone, Demons in every color, that stuff). But the part that left me gob-smacked the most was when Jesus descended into the bowls as the unquestioned master over hell. Growing up with late 20th century media often cribbing notes from Alighieri, I'd assumed that Satan was in charge of hell, but like... of course he wouldn't be! The almighty made this place Lucifer's prison, not his playground. So, in the set I've been tinkering with, this is the guy I've made to capture the dissonance of God as Lord of Heaven and Hell(boundless love and eternal damnation). I REALLY hope I don't offend anyone with this entry, that was super not my intention. I even Photoshopped out all the crosses from the AI generated art just to try and secularize it, but this was meant as an interesting exploration of extra-biblical cannon, not a slight against anyone's beliefs. Anywho...

IIW: Follow this link: https://www.fantasynamegenerators.com/god-names.php The 3rd result down is your card name.

Simmering Corpse 1R

Half-Cremated Varag
Creature — Goblin Zombie (U)
Haste
If Half-Cremated Varag would die, exile it instead. If you do, you may play it until the end of your next turn unless it had a cremation counter on it. When you cast it this way, it enters the battlefield with a cremation counter on it.
If you think the smell of a living goblin is bad, just you wait until you smell a dead one. Then, if you think that smells absolutely vile, wait until you smell one that is both dead and burning.
3/1

IIW: "When ~'s echo cost is paid"

Vigilance
Whenever one or more counters are placed on Gleeful Bureaucrat, you may place that many of the same type of counter on target creature an opponent controls.
5W: Put a stun counter on Gleeful Bureaucrat.
He could talk about his favorite laws for hours, days, weeks...
