Elijah
Green 8/6 Prophet
Search deck or discard pile for a I or II Kings artifact. Elijah is protected from discard abilities on evil cards. May band to Elisha. Cannot be Negated if Elijah's Mantle is active.
I Kings 17:6

Elisha
Green 7/5 Prophet
Reveal opponent's hand and shuffle a evil card into opponent's deck. When Elisha is discarded, convert a human Evil Character or heal and remove all evil cards on a Hero in your Territory. Cannot be Interrupted.
II Kings 6:17

Elijah's Mantle
Artifact - May be activated on Elijah or Elisha
On activation, you may discard a good enhancement from hand to draw 2 or give your prophets site access. Protect your prophets from set aside and shuffle by opponents.
I Kings 19:19

There really aren't that many artifacts from those books all you have is:
Mantle
Holy of Holies
Altar of Ahaz
Hezzy's Ring
Windows of Narrow Light
Book of Law
Chariots of Fire

Most of these are not that useful and would not be included in a deck that used Elijah

True, but does it make sense that he can bring back Altar of Ahaz, the very thing he tried to destroy?

Elijah bands to himself, how interesting.

I think the artifact search is fine. I think Elisha may as well just reveal the whole hand as they'd have to reveal the hand anyway to prove they don't have anymore evil cards in it.

I cleaned up Elijah's Mantle's wording a bit: "On activation, you may discard a good Enhancement from hand to draw 2 or give your prophets Site Access this turn. Protect your prophets from set aside and shuffle by opponents."

Forgot to put this in my previous post: Love the cards!

They all seem decently balanced to me (but if the Revelation Set is any indication, balance may be something that eludes me ).

I would have made card images for these, but apparently my template is now outdated.

Mine was somewhat outdated even with the old layout, but it's definitely outdated now, lol.

Thanks! I like them all. The only thing is Elisha looks kind too cartoonish, but I do appreciate them and love them.

Quick art choice

If I offended you, then my apologies. I was giving my opinion of the artwork is all and I was unaware that it was a quick pick. I've just seen how great some of your others were was all.

No no no, you're fine.

That could be a combo, but you would require at least 2 Isaiah Angels to draw 2 with Isaiah who probably has I's Call on him, then a Isaiah card in hand to discard to draw 2 with mantle.

That's a five card combo to pull off.

Found a typo in the 2nd Ability of Elijah's Mantle: "Protect hour prophets..." when it should say "your". I found it in my original post and just fixed it.
