A slight variation from an old LS idea of mine. I made it more powerful, but added a "once per game" restriction to prevent Gates of Hell abuse.

Lost Soul
Verse - John 3:20: "For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed."
Ability: "When played, once per game you may underdeck this card to reveal 6: Put lost souls and evil characters in play and add an evil enhancement to hand. Underdeck the rest. Cannot be negated."

I struggle with any soul that can immediately underdeck itself. Drought is the worst part of the game and I don't want to encourage it in any way. I get that it reveals 6 cards so there is good shot at adding souls to the table anyways but Ill take a soul on the table for sure over a chance to get more souls. (if I am the opponent)

I like the concept. Like Josiah mentioned, I'd eliminate the underdeck and just allow to work when it's played. You wouldn't need to put revealed Lost Souls in play anymore. It could still get you an EC and an EE but with less shenanigans.

I feel like any time a lost soul is revealed it should be put in to play. Are there any cards or rules that would make this ruling broken?

Magic Charms is an example of underdecking LS.

Possibly add a restriction: if it is not the only lost soul in this land of bondage.

EDIT: Redoubter is right and cought my mistake

I meant Divination

I think you mean Divination, which can indeed put souls on the bottom but is a look, not reveal. There's no rule or reason why a revealed soul has to go to play, though, so that's not an issue.

I like the concept, but also don't like the concept of a soul that soul droughts.
