Anrakyr the Traveller
Legendary Artifact Creature — Necron
Lord of the Pyrrhian Legions — Whenever Anrakyr the Traveller attacks, you may cast an artifact spell from your hand or graveyard by paying life equal to its mana value rather than paying its mana cost.
"Though it may take an eternity, I will see the myriad dynasties united once more."
