Targeting one of your own creatures is usually a cost: a pump spell spends a card, an aura asks for protection from removal, and the act of pointing a spell at your guy is something you pay for, not something that pays you. This Cleric inverts that relationship. Every time a spell or ability targets a Cleric you control (yours or an opponent's, a buff or a burn), the targeted body fattens by two toughness. Stack a few copies and the toughness boosts compound, which turns the trigger into the engine for a particular Onslaught-block trick: target your own Clerics with a free or cheap pinger or activated ability repeatedly, let the +0/+2 bonuses pile up arbitrarily high, and you have a creature that survives anything short of destroy effects, or a redundant toughness loop that combos with damage-redirection and lifegain pieces. The design is doing something subtle for its era: it reads the targeting event itself, not the spell that caused it, so even an opponent's removal aimed at your Cleric makes that Cleric harder to kill before the removal resolves. That window matters. The bonus applies when the trigger resolves, which can happen before the original spell or ability, so a toughness-dependent kill spell can fizzle against a creature that just grew out of range. It is a small white common built to reward a deck full of Clerics and cheap repeatable targeting, and the loops it enables are wider than its 1/1 frame suggests.
