IMHO should give +2/0 and gain one life if at least one damage is done.

Interesting flavor, though as said before, he should have white in there somewhere, but terrible power level. Had he cost 1 less mana, he would have been decent for his time.

@ Missile_Penguin....did you read the flavor text? did you just read half, get bored, then stop? this guy, just from reading his flavor text, immediately became the card I am most interested in seeing more backstory on. Forget the Eldrazi. Nom Nom Nom they eat everything, the end. Fine. That story sucks.
*I* wanna hear about the guy with a tortured past, and find out what he did in the past to make him Red/Black, and what happened to him to make him wander the world attoning for it....
By today's standards, he'd surely be R/B/W...but enemy colored cards didn't come until, what, was it Ravnica? no, Apocalypse had Vindicate...Invasion Block then.
and@Guest- a human isn't a Dragon. for back then, this firebreathing ability is fine. There are recent Dragons who have had worse, believe it or not.

The Firebreathing ability is alright, but why as an activation cost, there was better alternatives, such as the Shivan Dragon who was much better, and at the same CMC.

Why would a R/B creature "wander the realms helping those in greatest need?"

Well gee, you already had me at a 6 mana 5/3, but you're saying that if I pay 2 more mana, it gets STRONGER? WOWWY ZOWWY, HOW DOES IT GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS?

@bowlofgumbo
Yeah, but only because Legends was (duh) the theme for the Legends set, that is almost every creature was legendary. So of COURSE you're going to end up with a bunch of terrible ones. And ones that have no story value. And a LOT of EDH options... XD\
@Missile_Penguin
Exactly. That's why I like this card: Something about it seems off, and makes you want to check out the flavor of it, rather than, as Darth pointed out, "...the Eldrazi. Nom Nom Nom they eat everything, the end. Fine. That story sucks."

Flavorful. But gameplay-wise sucks big monkey balls.
