Prismari, the Inspiration

Legendary Creature — Elder Dragon5 generic manaBlue manaRed mana

Storm has always lived on the spells that carry it, printed into a single card whose payoff you cast once and rarely again. Bolting the keyword onto a static ability rewrites that arithmetic: the copy count is no longer a property of one card but a standing rule the whole game plays while this dragon holds the board. The third spell in a turn forks twice, the fourth forks three times, and the sequencing puzzle that once belonged to Tendrils of Agony and its kin now attaches to whatever you happen to draw. The rate on the body pays for that access: seven mana for a 7/7 flier, with Ward asking five life rather than mana, so the card wants to land in a shell that has already survived long enough to shield it. What separates this granted-storm design from historical storm payoffs is its indifference to what gets copied; a cantrip, a bolt, and a counterspell all fork identically, so the deck's job becomes threading cheap effects into a chain rather than assembling one dedicated finisher. Engine and payoff occupy the same slot here, a heavier ask than a storm card you only need to resolve once, but the ceiling climbs with however many spells the rest of the deck can cram into a single turn.
