Tanuki of the Hearth


Challenging the previous master of the hearth and emerging victorious, she stands now, one with the ever-smouldering flames.
Honed over a hundred life and death battles, her katana plunges through the air like a turning swallow. Any soul that has seen her blade glinting by the firelight is marked for death. For rare is the living being who has seen it glisten twice.
Swallow Blade's Mark
On your turn, you may Mark another Spirit Lord by playing one card that matches their health cost. If a Marked Spirit Lord loses a life in any way, discard the Mark. On your following turn, if the Spirit Lord is still Marked, you may critically attack them by playing one card that matches their health cost. Discard the Mark at the end of that turn.
