This version looks more dark and creepy... You just might get leprosy from touching the card! Again.. nice concept that went nowhere!

The card type should be :Human Nomad, in my humble opinion.

Equip or Enchant to give it some power and have fun!
Or, alternatively, Valor Made Real.

One of the best White one drops ever - largely in part to his cool name - ABU! the poor little guy stops most attacks dead... Not to mention one of the Godfathers of the deathtouch mechanic - he doesn't actually need to do damage though, just needs to get up nice n' close...

Why does this guy have a lower rating than Loyal Sentry?

Seriously epic broccoli? loyal sentry is a 1/1 this is a 0/1.

Seriously AvatarOfHOE? Loyal Sentry can only kill creatures that attack; Abu Ja'far kills creatures that attack or block.

(EDIT: On the other hand, Loyal Sentry kills attackers before damage gets through.)

Also, no one here has mentioned Nemesis Mask yet.

He's not a legend, so run 4 w/ High Ground.

"Sir, the weak leper is coming to assault our base."

"Ignore him. He's much more dangerous to us if we stop him."

"Very we- Sir? I'm... I'm gravitating to him!"

"What do you mean?"

"I don't know! It's like he's... lure-ing me to him!"

1. Make an EDH Deck with Odric, Master Tactician as your commander.
2. Insert Abu Ja'far.
3. Swing with Odric, Ja'far, and 2 others, choose the creatures that you really want buried.
4. Giggle uncontrollably.

People forget that this came out at a time when banding was a common White ability.

Band with another attacker and you can kill anything that blocks you.
