Market Gnome

A wall that pays you back twice. The first trigger is the classic sacrificial-fodder promise: block once, chump a swing, feed a sacrifice outlet, and the 0/3 body converts into a card and a life on the way out. The second trigger is what makes the design specific rather than generic. Craft is an exile-based ability, and creatures fed to it leave the battlefield without ever dying, which normally shuts off death-triggered value entirely. This gnome is written to notice the difference: exiling it to power a craft ability fires the same card-and-life refund that dying would, so it slots into a craft engine as artifact material that refuses to be a dead cost. That dual clause resolves a tension most fodder creatures live with. Ordinarily a value body forces a choice between fueling a sacrifice theme and fueling an exile-based mechanic; here the two draw from the same reservoir, staying live across both. A 0/3 for one mana is a serviceable early blocker on its own, and the toughness lets it survive most incidental sweep effects long enough to be cashed in on your terms rather than the opponent's. It is a small piece of gearing built to keep an exile-cost mechanic from feeling like a tax, and it does that job cleanly.
