THE UNCLEAN WREN(Hazard Creature or Short-event)
Playable Region/Site Types: BL/W/SL/DD
1 MP
Animal. May be played as a hazard creature with one strike or as a short-event.
Characters facing a strike from this creature use prowess equal to their mind attribute. Any character that would normally be wounded is only tapped instead - no body checks are made.
If played as a short-event, this card gives -2 to one character's influence or offering attempts for the rest of the turn. As a short-event, this card may be played by any player at any time not counting against the hazard limit, but may not be duplicated on a given character.
Prowess 8, Body -
"...the whispers grew into shouts of laughter, and bold men who no longer feared the mighty Wizard shouted out 'Behold the great Pallando with bird poop on his robes!' And the Maia of Mandos retreated before their derision and skulked away to search for a really first-class dry cleaning establishment..." -LottaBS

Author's note: This card represents the hideously-evil Sauronic influence that drives otherwise placid, even friendly birds to evacuate their bowels from a great height onto the robes, hauberks, helms, and even heads of those sworn to the cause of the Free Peoples. Like the man said, write what you know...
