Post the decks of famous wizards

[Xamuel]

Post the decks of famous wizards!  They don't have to be playable or make any sense--  the goal is just to make it thematic!  I.e., the cards should be somehow based on what that wizard actually uses.  Also, just because someone posts a wizard doesn't mean you can't post your own take on that wizard.

I'll start with everyone's favorite wizard:

• Gandalf

• Firefly:  The one which helped him when he was trapped on Saruman's tower
• Lightning:  As seen in "The Hobbit"
• Gnome Gemfinders:  Hobbits!!
• Varadium Wardens / Crusaders:  Gandalf's human allies (Gondor, Rohan, Strider, etc.)
• Elite Cockatrices:  The Eagles
• Forest Spectres:  Ents, of course!
• Purify:  Not sure, just felt Gandalf should have purify.
• Elite Pegasus:  Shadowfax!
• Holy Flash, Improved Blessing:  Again, not sure, just felt right.
• Morning Glory:  Gandalf's Sword
• Improved Miracle:  Used to revive after the battle against the balrog
• Hope:  Part of his "theme" throughout the novels, he brought hope.
• Sanctuary:  Rivendell
• Eagle's Eye:  The Eagles help gandalf dispatch his foes
• Ghosts of the Past:  Those undead guys from Return of the King (maybe more appropriate for Aragorn?)
• Cloak:  As seen, for example, in The Two Towers when his allies mistake him for Saruman
• Mark of Fire:  As you know, Gandalf is the bearer of Narya, the Ring of Fire.

And just for good measure, here's Gandalf's arch rival...

• Saruman

Explanation:

• Abominations, Fallen Elves:  Of course, the Uruk-Hai!

• Solar Shield/Mark of Light:  even though he's become corrupt, Saruman is the wizard of Light.
• Precognition/Mindgate:  The Palantir
• Devourers:  Not sure exactly, but felt like it goes well with the theme of Saruman sucking the life out of nature
• Minor Vampire:  Wormtongue
• Gavel:  Saruman's Staff
• Condor:  "The spies of Saruman!"
• Stone Tower:  The one where he lives and carries out all his diabolical schemes
• Basilisk Blood / Voodoo Doll / Liquid Shadow / Silence:  Different aspects of Saruman's controlling the King of Rohan
• Cremation:  This is what pissed the Ents off in the first place
• Steam Machine:  Goes with the theme of Saruman's cruel experiments with machinery
• Lightning Storms:  useful for blocking mountain passes and forcing your enemies to venture into Moria
