Limited summary

Two-mana 2/2 that turns every token — creature or not — into value. One token per turn gains life, the second draws a card, the third pumps your whole team. In a deck that reliably makes 2-3 tokens a turn she is a card-advantage engine on a playable body.

Gameplay notes

Treasures, Equipment tokens, and Food all count, not just creature tokens. Sequence token-makers after she is down, and try to spread token creation across turns you control.
