Now then, the Demon tribe has been my favourite in MTG for a long time. However, though many of the images I will be using are demons, I don't just want to see the same old tired ideas... if that makes sense. Horrors, nightmares and the like can also be a good fit for some.

 Anyways, my competition is simple. I'll upload an image that's intriguing, and you design a card on it. If you wish to participate. I will score each round out of ten. My criteria include what I perceive as flavourful, creative and balanced. I will give brief feedback on each too. We shall see how well this goes, first competition and all that.

Anyways, gist of it, design a card based on an image, all of which will be demonically/infernally related in some way, probably the great stonking demon on the front. I don't know how to do the drop down tags so if anyone could let me know that'd be great, roughly two days an image, five intended rounds.  There are possible bonuses so you could score 11/10 if you're lucky :D Just a bit of fun:

First image here:



Have fun, be inventive, have fun

Demon with a cross? How ironic.

Selune of the Sky
Legendary Creature - Angel Demon
Flying
Creatures you control with flying have undying.
The child of an angel and a demon, Selune prefers to be a collector rather than owner of the souls she claims.
3/3

This is based on the Preacher comic to some degree.

I think SimonGlume DEFINITELY has the right idea with this.  I thought so too and was going to post similar thoughts, but he beat me to it.  I'll go with a slightly different take on the same theme. I'll also add that she looks sad.

If you or ~ would be dealt damage, prevent that damage and put that many -1/-1 counters on ~
If ~ would deal damage to a player or planeswalker prevent that damage unless you discard a black card.
Discard a white card: remove all -1/-1 counters from ~

Aria, the Night Seer  
Plansewalker - Aria
{+1}:  Target player sacrifices a creature and draws a card.
{-3}:   Put a fate counter on target creature.  Whenever a creature with a fate counter dies, draw three cards, then discard one card.
{-8}:   Exile all cards from all graveyards.  Draw X cards and each opponent loses X life where X is the number of cards exiled this way.
[4]

The skeletal bird in her hand spoke to me.  Sine you said to make a card, and didn't say it had to be a creature, I made a half-demon 'Walker.  She uses such fun modified versions of Casting of Bones and Skeletal Scrying as her minus and ultimate abilities.  Her plus ability can be used offensively to help clear the board as the cost of letting her whisper dark power in your opponent's ear, or defensively as a normal demon feeding power with an upside.

  Interesting so far. You are correct Azureshade it doesn't need to be a creature. hoping for a couple more before the time runs out on the round though. 

 Oh might I add... the winning card each round will be added to Noumena, the setting I am still processing, the sinkhole of the multiverse :P
