Artifact Creature - Clue Drake (Uncommon)
Flying, haste
When Etched Wyvern dies, create a 2/2 blue Drake creature token with flying.

Renegade magescholars use drakes coated in symbiotic arcano-armor as messengers.
3/3
I really like the flavor on this one - the flavor text really hints at an interesting world! This is a great uncommon for limited; it's just the right level of annoying for your opponent

Trigori and Sirislav of the Bureau WUUB
Legendary Creature - Human Vedalken Advisor (Mythic)
Hexproof
Whenever you draw a card or discard a card, investigate.
Whenever you sacrifice a clue, detain target nonland permanent.
The Azorius denies their existence and the Dimir denies their relationship so the Bureau of Interplanar Defense would solve crimes too hard to explain to the masses.
1/1
Unexplained Biomass
Creature - Clue (Rare)
At the beginning of your upkeep, if Unexplained Biomass is in your graveyard, discard two cards. Then, return Unexplained Biomass to the battlefield.
2, Sacrifice Unexplained Biomass: Draw a card.
"Tag it under 'things I never want to see again'"
"No, tag it under 'things that wants us to see them again and again.'"
- Trigori and Sirislav
1/1
This is kind of an interesting idea, but I'm not really sure it lands for me. I guess that if you empty your hand, then the drawback doesn't matter and you get a free clue every turn. With Trigori out, you probably won't have an empty hand, but instead you get two extra clues to make up for it. It's hard for me to imagine exactly how I want to build around this.

Perrin the Interrogator 1ur
Legendary Creature - Human (u)
Flash
Whenever a player casts a spell, if it is not that player's turn, investigate.
Whenever you sacrifice a Clue, Perrin the Interrogator deals 1 damage to each opponent.
2/2
I love this dagger; it's a simple combination of things that ties together very nicely.

Cultcarved Gravestone 1G
Artifact - Clue
(R)
Spells that are cast from graveyards cost
2 less to cast and can only be cast any time their controller could cast a sorcery.
(Players can't cast spells from graveyards unless another effect causes them to.)
Whenever a card leaves a player's graveyard, that player gains 1 life.
At the beginning of each player's upkeep, choose two cards in their graveyard. That player shuffles those cards into their library.
2, Sacrifice Cultcarved Gravestone: Draw a card.
There's some interesting tension in the abilities here. I guess if you put this in a self-mill deck with Flashback / Unearth etc, you can reshuffle things that don't have any benefit from being in a graveyard and get a small life bump in the process. Meanwhile, your big flashback spells are cheaper but maybe slower. Hmm, this does make me want to try to brew a deck around it...

Grenzo's Dossier 3R
Artifact - Clue {U}
When Grenzo's Dossier enters the battlefield, create two 1/1 red Goblin creature tokens.
When Grenzo's Dossier is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, it deals damage to any target equal to the number of creatures that died this turn.
2, Sacrifice Grenzo's Dossier: Draw a card.
A cool little value package, plus it's fun to imagine the goblins going after the suspect.
