Title: I made myself a card.

OK, so the verse is in an ancient language, that fits.
The stats say the character is very offensive, that sometimes fits.
The SA is always digging up old texts, that fits.
Playing first fits with the number of threads that Colin starts.
The identifiers of Russian and Musician fit with how Colin usually talks about himself.
The identifiers are on the opposite side as normal, fitting with Colin's often backwards perspectives.

Overall, I think it fits you pretty well, although I think it would have been even better if the verse came from the Apocrypha, and you added the new identifier Philosopher :)

please unuderstand that while that last post sounded offensive at times, I can vouch for Mark and say that he in no way intended that post to sound offensive.  Offensive in his post meant Attack #'s and the last line sounds bad but I am sure it was said with tongue firmly in cheek.

but I do like his idea of a new Philosopher identification.

Oops.

I appreciate your defending me Matt, but actually this is a rare case where I did actually mean to be a bit offensive (although you are correct that it is still in a tongue in cheek way).  Colin and I have a long history of friendly sparring on a number of different issues here on the forum, and I thought this would be a funny way to give him a hard time (while at the same time recognizing that he did make a nice card).

I expect and hope that Colin will take my criticisms in the good humor that they were given.  However, if he is truly offended by them, I will gladly go back and delete my post.

I actually found your post rather humourous. I should have thought to put philosopher in there.

I don't think this fits at all.  Sadducees were very legalistic and loved their rules.  Colin is almost an anarchist.  Totally different.

A zealot, perhaps?

I see you are Ultra Rare. And that you have a defense of 1. Feeling vulnerable? Need a hug?

I find it interesting that the SA doesn't specify good cards. ;)

I liked the double meaning of "axe", and adding yourself to the musician offense was a good idea.

Adding "philosopher" and quoting one of my favorite songs (even if I like the PP&M version better) is awesome!
