Enchantment — Aura3 generic manaWhite mana

An Aura on a land that pays for itself twice. The three tokens on entry cover the immediate loss if the land is destroyed or bounced, so the card never leaves you empty-handed the way a creature enchantment does; you keep three bodies regardless of what happens to the enchanted permanent. Then the land becomes an engine. The granted ability scales with your board: 1 generic mana and a tap to pump a creature by +1/+1 for each creature you control, which means the three tokens the Aura just made are already feeding the math the turn it lands. That is the design loop here, an Aura that manufactures the very board it wants to count. The sorcery-speed restriction is what stops it from doubling as a combat trick, keeping the payoff to a build-your-own-alpha-strike on your own turn rather than an instant-speed blowout. The token support is deliberate: white token go-wide is the archetype this is built to reward, and the ability is agnostic about which creatures do the counting, so the humble Citizens are as valid as anything you deploy later. It sits in a long line of white token-and-anthem effects, but the structure is unusual: the pump is delivered through a land's activated ability rather than a static enchantment, which means it survives creature-targeted removal and demands mana each turn to fire. That trade, resilience for repeatability at a cost, is the whole shape of the card.
