Rationale
4cmc legendary enchantment god; indestructible, grants vigilance anthem when non-creature (below 5 white devotion), mana-sink to make 2/1 Cleric tokens. Signature in white midrange/control shells with sufficient devotion density and token synergies. Build-constraint: requires white-heavy deck to turn on creature mode; slow setup before devotion threshold reached.
