Black Scarabs were a species of scarab that existed during Terisiare's last glacial period. They were used some nations in the fight against Lim-Dûl; wearing a talisman fashioned out of one made that creature stronger just by having swamp-based monstrosities in the ranks of the enemy.
The talisman and perhaps even the scarab itself fell out of favor with the death of Lim-Dûl and the end of the Ice Age.
Notes[]
- Black Scarab was a white enchant creature card that cost 1 white mana to cast.
- The enchanted creature could not be blocked by black creatures, and also gained +2/+2 as long as any opponent controlled a black permanent.
