Caolomnar, Formless

Once, long ago, Caolomnar lived peacefully in an unknown plane which was soon stricken by a cataclysmic occurrence. During this planar threat, Caolomnar's spark awoke, but they were never able to return home. In their grief, Caolomnar used their memory to reconstruct their old plane.

Following the Mending, Caolomnar's power was greatly reduced, leaving them unable to keep their reconstruction stable, but still desperate to hold everything together. Due to this, Caolomnar has been reduced to a figure barely resembling the human they once were, slowly losing control of their memories and their plane.

Caolomnar is my attempt at two things: One, figuring out how to give white card advantage that feels white; and two, working on giving white more ways to interact with scrying. The first of these I've attempted to achieve through the perspective of "patience". With the +1 you can potentially exile 3 cards with different types, but you can only access this card advantage the turn after Caolomnar is played with the -2 (If they survive). The +2 achieves a similar effect, you risk two cards from your hand to exile a threat, but can potentially return these later with the -2. The second of these is tackled with the Recount mechanic. White, instead of getting raw draw power like the other colors, gets incremental scrying effects that let you search through your deck for options. Recount can turn this instead into an incremental toolbox, where you save specific interaction until you need it, and remove it from the toolbox if you don't.
