Ancestral Tree? Ancestral Marsh?

Creation doesn't work with the word Cypress (or even Mandrake.) _________ of Creation perhaps? I'd go with Pillar of Creation, but I think Terry Goodkind might have some words to say about that...and a pillar seems to me to fit into the 'Other' category too well.
It doesn't have to be a tree, either...just something that relates to both

For the upped, maybe a reduced cost from non-upped. Having both AP & HP be based off of the highest quanta pool you have at 1 for 1...there's a reason cards like Fahrenheit are N/5. Especially with this as a creature, imagine there being six of them.

One would figure cards like Miracle and the various Nymphs would be Unique, anyways...who ever heard of someone cashing in multiple miracles for a single person?

Is this supposed to summon these Scarabs (http://elementscommunity.org/wiki/cards-time/scarab-scarab/)?
Edit: And to clarify, you could probably write 'Destroy them at the end of next turn' instead.

Meh, not every card needs to be the cornerstone of a deck. There are plenty of support cards out there, after all, and I could see this used in any number of bad spots. Your creature got Antimattered or Liquid Shadowed (or both), poisoned, opponent cast a Gravity Shield, you have Malignant Cells to deal with, etc, etc. At least you get *something* useful out of the deal instead of nothing at all (or worse, something that's actively hurting you / helping your enemy.)

From dictionary.com (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/primordial):
1. constituting a beginning; giving origin to something derived or developed; original; elementary: primordial forms of life.
2. Embryology. first formed.
3. pertaining to or existing at or from the very beginning: primordial matter.
I was actually thinking of the term 'primordial ooze' when I first though of substituting the name. You may be thinking of primal instead.
That said, I'm still not sure that anything that it could change to would necessarily be better, and Primordial doesn't really fit either...but I'm definitely open for suggestion.

What chooses which effect the creature is placed in? Random? Your creature vs opposing creature? AP/HP?

Not exactly free. First, you actually have to have 
on hand to use it, which is a (small, admittedly) difference than having it read "0: Gain 2 ...". Second, it's burning off HP of the creature to do so. It may have too much starting HP for that, though. Maybe 3|3 / 4|4...there's plenty of HP boosting stuff out there if you want to use it for turn after turn.

Not sure why the name would need to be shortened. Would Primordial Cypress roll off the tongue better?
