Spirited Companion

Enchantment Creature — Dog1 generic manaWhite mana

For years the "body plus a card" package sat in green and blue, where Elvish Visionary and its imitators made cantrip creatures feel native; white got the bodies but rarely the free draw. This one inherits that template and stitches a second card type onto it. The extra word on the type line pulls a 1/1 that would be filler out of that category entirely: a permanent that both draws and reads as an enchantment plugs into an entire class of payoffs, constellation triggers, enchantment-count thresholds, effects that recur or reanimate enchantments, any engine that treats "an enchantment entered the battlefield" as an event worth rewarding. The draw triggers the moment the body arrives, so the value is banked even if the creature is later blocked, burned, or bounced; you never have to keep the fragile thing alive to collect. Decoupling the reward from the body's survival is what lets a one-power creature slot cleanly into decks that would otherwise refuse to run one. Most cantrip creatures read as tempo-neutral glue that draws a card and leaves a chump. This one doubles as an enchantment-count enabler that a whole white and Selesnya-adjacent tradition is built to exploit, and that dual identity is doing far more work than a 1/1 has any right to.
