Oracle Printed Card Name: Lashwrithe Mana Cost: Converted Mana Cost: 4 Types: Artifact — Equipment Card Text: Living weapon (When this Equipment enters the battlefield, create a 0/0 black Germ creature token, then attach this to it.) Equipped creature gets +1/+1 for each Swamp you control. ( can be paid with either or 2 life.) Equip Watermark: Phyrexian Expansion: New Phyrexia Rarity: Rare All Sets: Card Number: 143 Artist: Jason Felix Rulings The Germ token enters the battlefield as a 0/0 creature and the Equipment becomes attached to it before state-based actions would cause the token to die. Abilities that trigger as the token enters the battlefield see that a 0/0 creature entered the battlefield. Like other Equipment, each Equipment with living weapon has an equip cost. You can pay this cost to attach an Equipment to another creature you control. Once the Germ token is no longer equipped, it will be put into your graveyard and subsequently cease to exist, unless another effect raises its toughness above 0. If the Germ token is destroyed, the Equipment remains on the battlefield as with any other Equipment. If the living weapon trigger causes two Germs to be created (due to an effect such as that of Doubling Season), the Equipment becomes attached to one of them. The other will be put into your graveyard and subsequently cease to exist, unless another effect raises its toughness above 0.
