Prismwake Merrow

Creature — Merfolk Wizard 2/1, 2U (3)

Flash

When Prismwake Merrow comes into play, target permanent becomes the color or colors of your choice until end of turn.

"Seeing is believing" is a fact the merrows ruthlessly exploit in their dealings with the other residents of Shadowmoor.
