Kellan, Inquisitive Prodigy
Kellan is a compact threat that reads like a toolbox for tempo and value. The creature comes down with flying and vigilance so it pressures life totals while still checking threats. On attack it can remove an opposing artifact and reward you with a card when you were the permanent's controller, which opens tidy synergies in artifact matter decks or midrange lists that want incidental removal and card flow.
The Adventure tail offers Investigate and a one time extra land play that smooths draws and sets up bigger plays. Play the sorcery side first to seed clues and fix mana then return the creature from exile to keep the board moving. In gameplay terms Kellan fits into blue black lists that value disruption and incremental advantage and it contributes both early and late without demanding a full combo to shine.
