Nightshade Dryad
Nightshade Dryad lands on the battlefield as a cost efficient 1/2 with deathtouch. For {1}{G}, it brings a pair of tapping abilities that shape your turn decisions: tap to add black mana, and tap to add one mana of any color. This gives you early reach while keeping your options open for multicolor crossings or back to back plays in a single turn.
From a practical standpoint, Nightshade Dryad fits into aggressive or midrange plans that need a resilient body and mana flexibility. It can threaten early trades thanks to deathtouch, and the dual mana abilities help fix colors or accelerate into the next threat. In the lore of the set, it is whispered to guard shadowed groves, drawing power from nightshade blooms and lending that power to your spell suite.
