Loran of the Third Path
Naturalistic disenchant-on-a-body has been white's bread and butter for decades, but the destroy trigger here is only the opening move. The real character lives in the tap ability: a symmetrical draw where you and a single opponent each refill. That symmetry is the tax that pays for repeatable card advantage on a white three-drop, and it turns the design into a negotiation rather than a pure engine. You hand an opponent resources every time you dig, which reframes the card as a political lever more than a value faucet: aim the draws at the player least able to punish you, or the one whose goodwill you need next. Vigilance is what lets the engine and the offense coexist. She can attack without tapping, so she stays untapped after combat and is free to activate the draw once damage is settled, or to hold back and block on the following turn without giving up her body. The up-to-one wording on the removal lets her enter cleanly when there is nothing worth destroying, so she is never a dead draw against decks light on artifacts and enchantments. The lineage runs through group-draw effects like Kami of the Crescent Moon and Howling Mine, cards that spun the whole table faster; this narrows that idea to a targetable, one-opponent version you fully control. She is a maintenance engine for a color that has always throttled its own card flow, giving white a way to keep pace without abandoning the symmetry that keeps such effects honest.
