Brass Stones

[jro]

2 mana artifacts that tap for mana are a pretty standard staple.  This would be meant to be a color fixing card in a set that doesn't require cycles of color fixers, but still wants a few hanging around (like Prismatic Lens and Terramorphic Expanse in Time Spiral, or Springleaf Drum in Lorwyn).  As for power level, I'd say this is on par with the Talismans from Mirrodin, Prismatic Lens, or Mind Stone, and that seems fine.  I'd like to see it at Uncommon, I think.

Oh, and I guess it really should be Brass Stone, but I couldn't resist.

What about the name Brass Relic as an alternative name?

I like it.  I had also thought maybe Brass Talisman, but I like Relic better.  I was trying to think of some flavor text implying that it was like a piece of the City of Brass, but couldn't work out anything that I liked.

I like Brass Mana Battery, because it fits "brass man" into the name.
