Hmmm...I like defense as much as anyone, but I think this is too easy. I say either have a cost or restrict it to once per game. Or if it said "Convert one of Holder's Heroes in territory to a Brown EC", I would like it better. That way it is a nice counter to someone using Holy Grail on you. Also, I would think you should specify human? I guess it's not necessary, but I don't know if Angels would get hungry enough for stew to become demons...

I definitely like seeing more withdraw abilities on Evil Cards. Battle-winning, but not over-powerful. Exchange for HA2 though, and...excellent combo

"Set your Male Human Evil Character aside, or place this card on him. While character is set aside or this card remains, selected Hero cannot enter battle."

Very nice and biblically accurate. Not sure if the option is necessary; I might go with one or the other, but still nice as is.

Laban

"If a Genesis Hero is in play, protect Laban from Discard and Capture as long as a Genesis Hero is in play. Cannot be Negated."
Genesis 30:27
He was a magician? Interesting...I know he had idols, but where is the evidence for magician-ness? Maybe I'll have to reread the story. Anyway, I definitely like this, with one nitpick. I would say protect Laban from Discard and Capture abilities on Opponent's cards (like Judas). Else Laban + Deluge of Rain would be OP'd.

Very nice.
Covenant at Mizpah

"Negate all banding on O.T. cards. Your Genesis Heroes are Protected from Discard abilities."

I suppose it's balanced enough.
Penuel
Blue/Silver Site
"When a Hero (except Blue or Silver Brigade) rescues a Lost Soul from this site, you may search deck or Discard Pile for one O.T. Enhancement. Limit one per rescue."
Genesis 32:30
Why the extra phrase? Isn't the limit obvious? Maybe not, but I'm not sure how to read it otherwise.

"Convert an O.T. Human Evil Character to a Blue Hero. All players except the one to whom the EC belonged must Discard a card from hand."
Genesis 33:4
Kind of awkward phrasing. How about "Convert....Hero. All players except the owner of that Evil Character must Discard a card from hand."?
Overall very good.

I really like these. Just two nitpicky things.

"Protect Lost Souls from Rescue if there are more than one Heroes in battle. Opponent may Discard all but one Hero in battle instead."
Genesis 25:28
Better wording?: "Protect Lost Souls from rescue if there is more than one Hero in battle. Opponent may discard all but one Hero in battle to negate this."
Laban
6/6 Grey Evil Character
-Magician, Syrian-
"If a Genesis Hero is in play, protect Laban from Discard and Capture as long as a Genesis Hero is in play. Cannot be Negated."
Genesis 30:27
Repetitive wording => "Protect Laban from Discard and Capture as long as a Genesis Hero is in play. Cannot be Negated."

I didn't want to word it that way because of Asherah Pole.
Very nice and biblically accurate. Not sure if the option is necessary; I might go with one or the other, but still nice as is.
I wanted the option on there because I like flexible cards. If you set him aside, it's nearly impossible to get use of your Hero back, but you can't use the EC either. If you place it, you can still use the EC, but the grudge is more vulnerable.
He was a magician? Interesting...I know he had idols, but where is the evidence for magician-ness? Maybe I'll have to reread the story. Anyway, I definitely like this, with one nitpick.

Yeah, the verse said he used divination. Good point on the "opponent's cards."
Why the extra phrase? Isn't the limit obvious? Maybe not, but I'm not sure how to read it otherwise.
In T2, I wouldn't want people getting 3 cards. It was kind of preemtive wording to make sure people wouldn't say "does 'this site' mean Penuel?
Kind of awkward phrasing. How about "Convert....Hero. All players except the owner of that Evil Character must Discard a card from hand."
Good call.

Discarding a card from hand EVERY turn is kinda brutal... I think birthright sold is a little too OP. But I love the cards. Good work as always. :)

Well, since you have to Discard as well, I thought it was balanced.
