The ability is a nice idea, and it would possibly be more interesting for 2White, but a mana cost of 5 is not really worth that trouble.

Not horrible in a deck with many clash card... 5CMC each turn on top of your library...

Tries to do too much, and does none of it particularly well. Seriously, a CMC of 5!?

This would be good if it cost 2W. 3W might be tolerable.

This is....bad...I mean, really, 5 mana to gain 3 stupid life and give a creature flying. Maybe the second ability wouldn't suck if it bounced to your hand, but seriously, that's just serious card disadvantage...

this is for clash people, another terrible mechanic brought in by lorwyn to bring in new players.

The high mana cost is so it can combo well with clash. If you want to ensure your chances, you put a 5 mana cost on top of the deck.

It looks like a pair of rockets hit her in the back.

This has to be one of the worst auras ever made. So overcosted.
Oh, and to anyone wondering, that's a Kithkin chick. No humans on Lorwyn.

Is it just me, or are those human boobs? In Lorwyn?

No one plays this card for it's abilities. Just the art.

Speaking of the art, it's interesting in that she appears to be a human, yet Lorwyn has no humans.

This is the weirdest, most confounding artwork on a Magic card I think I have ever seen. It's just like TITS!!!....... and also an enchantment.

The art is a little odd, but at least it has wings in it. You can argue it pictures what it's supposed to as well as prominently featuring a girl's bosom... unlike, oh, I don't know, Vampire's Bite.

"Hey players, sorry you just got a dead card in your limited pool, here's some cleavage to make up for it."

It costs so much so you can keep it in your hand and stare at it.

To everyone saying there were no humans in lorwynn, this close up, how do you know they're not kithink boobs?

Little known fact;
Long, long ago, the Orzhov conspired to invade and subjugate the plane of Lorwyn in a blatant parody of Shrek. They were met with fierce resistance; however, they held the upper hand thanks to the combined smexy of their humans and angels. All seemed lost, until the Kithkin discovered the source of their power, and one true weakness; cleavage windows. They actually devised this enchantment to rob the Ravnican invaders of this asset, and with it went on to claim total victory.
Coincidentally, that was also the end of civilian interplanar travel. Teysa had all routes shut down to preserve her reputation.

Magic artists should always check how their art looks when shrunk down to card size before sending it in, to make sure that the resizing doesn't, e.g., make a pair of wings look like cleavage.
