Enforcer of the Law

Keep in mind, I designed this card to start off OP'd as some sort of promo dealio.  The true brigade color(s) should be purple and/or red because historically, this verse is speaking of persons such as governors or princes (Royalty), and the persons under their authority that they choose to enforce the laws (Red).  I like the verse, and, since there was obviously more than one person chosen as an "agent of wrath" one way to make it not OP'd would be to make them similar Pharisees or Sadducees except that they encompass more than one brigade.  With that in mind, they could be agents of God's wrath (Meaning punishment).  Toy with the idea, I'd love to hear positive feedback, but I can deal with negative feedback as well.  They are not unlike police officers, so keep that in mind as well.  Seeing as they can do good to heroes as well as possibly bad (According to the verse) you could maybe throw some ideas out with some sort of unique ability that way.

like the warrior-class character.  Maybe one verse can only block warrior-class evil characters or an ability similar to the Destroyer?

Can we get a higher-resolution picture? I can't read that at all.

I am not talking about T2 unless I am explicitly talking about T2. Also Mayhem is fine now somehow!

Unfortunately, I can't, but here is the SA: Protect all heroes with abilities 4/4 or less from capture, conversion, poison, or removal from game.  Prevent evil banding. Cannot be interrupted.

Like I said, designed to be OP'd, so I expect changes.

The verse is Romans 13:4 NIV

I don't think it's that OP considering that he doesn't protect himself and the ability doesn't say 'while in play.'

Why not just call it "Agent of Wrath?" SUCH a better name. Love the name, love the concept, the SA makes no sense (why is an agent of wrath protecting people from poison or stopping bad people from hanging out?), and the poly-brigade is OP but if it were Purple or Purple/Red like you said then it would be fine. Seems like you have a couple of good elements that don't really go well together, but if you were to develop them separately, it'd be tight.

My take would be,

Agent of Wrath
12/6 Purple Hero, WC
-Generic, King-
"Protect Discard Piles from search. Discard all Human Evil Characters that blocked this card following battle."

Well, it was because they were basically police officers in their time, so I was kind of going for a "protecting" role of sorts.  Kind of like, if an officer is around, it's less likely bad things will happen in close proximity, based on their presence alone.  Plus, it allows you to have more lower-ability heroes out and not worry about them getting affected by the battle.  But again, I welcome the suggestions, and yours are always creative.

"If opponent bands evil characters, protect heroes from discard and remove abilities. If they band evil characters of different brigades, discard one."

Just my version. Don't know what color I'd make it though.  :-\

Interesting SA.  Uses of Force amongst law enforcement does tend to escalate depending on what the opponent does or intends to do.

I'd love to make it a brigade other than Purple or Red because some brigades could use a strong support hero, but Historically, these guys were (And still are) warriors and/or royalty.

Actually, making it Purple would revitalize and entire strategy that's been left in the dust; Purple Royalty. Right now there's zero reason to use the royal side of Purple instead of Disciples.

I personally like the idea of it being purple/red because he technically is a warrior.

I actually prefer that name as well.  Do you have any suggestions on making them like a hero version of Sadducees/Pharisees? Maybe there could be some red brigade versions and then a purple brigade W/C promo that makes their banding/ability CBN.  Similar to that orange brigade panic demon promo.

Agents of Wrath
Abilities: 2/1 (Or higher, but I think strength should be double the defense)
Type: Hero
Identifiers: Prince/Governor - Unique (Royalty) for purple brigade; Warrior - Generic for red brigade
Brigade: Purple/Red
SA: May band to all Agents of Wrath. (Promo only) Cannot be Negated.
Verse: Romans 13:4

Sorry if the terminology is off/incorrect, but I hope you understand what I mean.
