I just thought of this today and threw it together really fast. Feedback?

Currently as written it can convert to good or evil. Is that your intent?

because in the bible, the greeks worshipped it as an idol, but paul used it to convert people to christians.

I actually like that, it's a very interesting concept, very creative.  I'd personally rather see a Greek being needed to convert a Hero, but that'd be long.

Even with the once per game, this card needs an "in territory" clause.  Being able to use an artifact as an offensive battle-winner is what got us erratas in the past (see Holy Grail), particularly if it is regardless of protection (very strong).

I agree - cool concept! It could be held in an Aeropagus, too, as it depicts an idol. Perfect for Greeks!

yeah, thats why i put the idol identifier on there, and i see why it could be too powerful, thanks for the feed back! ;D
