Pretty good, but I'd make so Jael can choose opponents ECs to block.

This isn't necessarily a bad thing, but Tower of Thebez would still negate her ability (actually that may be a cool means of recourse).

It should be noted that Canaan + Sisera makes the current Jael's ability work effectively and Biblically as-is.

Activate Canaan
Give them Sisera
RA with Jael
Choose Sisera to Block
Sisera (when blocking Red or Gold) makes Enhancements CBN
Play Jael's Nail
Sisera gets the 'point' *insert groan*

What Jael needs is the "ingenuity" (search) to turn a tent stake into a weapon. Exchange a GE in hand for one in deck?

I believe that only Evil Enhancements cannot be negated, not both good and evil

That's not true, although lately Cactus has been shying from CBN abilities and leaning towards CBP and CBI.

Nope, both are CBN.  Just like Joe makes JIP CBN.

Well ae the two support cards good or do they need improvement?

I like them a lot, but I think it would be nice if there were a couple more OT female heroes in Red to make the enhancements more useful.

Invite is nice because it doesn't require a red female, just a red and a female (OT)

True, Invite+Abigail+David then search for Bravery of David would be nice combo.

if Jael's nail was on Jael would every time she went out get to discard a ec?

Yeah, limit twice per game might be best  :)

Jael
Red 6/5
Ability: Choose Opponent's Male Evil Character to block. Discard enhancements cannot be negated by Male Canaanites.
Reference: Same

Jael's Invite
Red 2/2 TC
Ability: Place on a O.T. Female. Once Evil Character is present, Interrupt the battle and discard this to search deck for Red Discard Enhancement. Cannot be Prevented.

Jael's Nail
Red 3/2
Identifiers: Jael may retain as weapon
Ability: If used by a O.T. Female Hero, Discard a O.T. Male Evil Character. Cannot be Negated if used by lone Hero. Limit twice per game.
Reference: Same

Jael: I'd go back to 'You may choose a Male Evil Character to block this Hero.' So that u can choose your's or your opponents. And change 'Discard Enhancements' to 'Discard Abilities on Enhancements cannot be Negated by a Caananite'
Otherwise I like this!

Jael's Invite: quite nice, just some of the wording needs to be changed, put it like this:
'Place on a Female. If a Male Evil Character is in Battle, Discard this Card to Search Deck for a Red Enhancement with a Discard Ability. Cannot be Prevented."
I do like the card though!

Jael's Nail: This one is okay. It would be easier to put it as "Discard a Male Human to Place on Jael in Battle. Each time Jael enters Battle, Discard a Male Human."

Good, also then u can drop the Identifier, but add that it Depicts a Weapon.
I'm pretty sure it does.
