Character Background

Muster the Departed is a cheap white enchantment that seeds board presence and rewards token-focused decks: it immediately makes a 1/1 flying Spirit and can populate at your end step whenever a creature died that turn, generating incremental, repeatable value. It best supports value-oriented token strategies and light token aggro—less a one-turn tempo play and more a steady-value engine that snowballs with reliable death triggers. Build around it with sacrifice outlets like Viscera Seer or Altar of Dementia to guarantee the morbid condition, and lean on token-boosting cards such as Intangible Virtue or Cathars’ Crusade to turn spares into real threats. Anointed Procession doubles token creation, making the enchantment far more threatening, and populating high-impact tokens (for example Lingering Souls or large token generators) is especially devastating. In deckbuilding, treat this as a 2–3 copy payoff in a low-curve token shell with redundancy in token sources and a plan to either sacrifice or exchange bodies each turn to maximize consistent triggers.
