Abner might be too strong. Brown doesn't need another auto-block character, but since he's interrupt-able and with banding being so prevalent, he might be not be OP. Abner's Spear is solid, though it might be better for it to only discard a Human hero.

First, if you want to stop his ability from being stopped by an interrupt-end-the-battle combo, and make the card less wordy, just have it read at the end: "Cannot be Interrupted by an Evil Card". That stops you from being able to manipulate him as the defender, but the rescuer can still stop him. On a side note, the archers (which have this ability) only target heroes in territory. I understand it makes more sense for it to be in battle based on his story, but something to ponder for balance.
Not sure if we should be adding more "regardless of protection" battle-winners, but it is an interesting idea. At least it is not CB-.
Not a fan of Michal. You shouldn't have a reactive Ignore each battle (plus, ECs shouldn't have Ignore as far as I'm concerned...), it's a bit too powerful and only mutli-brigade bands can immediately do anything to the card. Sure, you can interrupt or negate it, but the ability to choose a brigade each battle is a bit much in my opinion.
Interesting ideas though :)

How many of the meta offences involve multi-brigade bands?
-
Michal should have a Israelite royalty identifier and Abner should have a commander identifier.
I like all the cards but I agree that Abner's ability should be less wordy. Also I don't get why you all are against Michal's ignore ability her original card had a ignore all cards connected to David ability

Not involving angels? Sam and FBTNB that I can think of, and that's it from what I have.

Yeah, it ignored one character, just David. And if it kept to David or at most one identifier or brigade, I'd be fine with it. To have it change each battle however is best is a bit too powerful IMO and doesn't even match the verse.
