 Enchant Creature During enchanted creature's controller upkeep, put a -1 -1 counter on enchanted creature. Enchanted creature cannot attack or block or use any activated ability. If enchanted creature leaves play, return Roots of Decay to owner's hands. If Roots of Decay goes to the graveyard, return Roots of Decay to owner's hands. Darn, can't get ride of those putrid roots..

Nice idea but i think there are a few problems with this card....
A) Locking down a creature and preventing activated abilities is clearly a white ability B) The card has 1 too many abilities.. i believe that with removing the last abilitie off the card would suffice

C) Cards that generate "unusual" counters (this includes -1/-1 counters) must keep them to themselves.

Oups, forgot the Current Wording. Current Wording :  Enchant Creature
During enchanted creature's controller upkeep, put a -1/-1 counter on enchanted creature. Enchanted creature cannot attack or block or use any activated ability. If enchanted creature leaves play, return Roots of Decay to owner's hands.
Darn, can't get ride of those putrid roots..I removed the last ability but I suggest we keep the color choice, keeping the flavor of the card.

unfortunately we can't keep the color choice and the flavor of the card. It's a BW card as its abilities stand. Nothing about the card is green other than the mana used to play it. There's no green flavor here and it doesn't make sense to make the card green as is. You could easily change the abilities to make it BG, but as it is, it's BW.
Also, the ability should be worded "Whenever enchanted creature leaves play, return <CARDNAME> to its owners hand." IF is reserved for replacement effects, which this isn't.

Then, let's change this to : Putrid Shackles  Enchant Creature During enchanted creature's controller upkeep, put a -1/-1 counter on enchanted creature. Enchanted creature cannot attack or block or use any activated ability. Whenever enchanted creature leaves play, return <CARDNAME> to its owners hand. Darn, can't get ride of those shackles!

I actually kind of like as black/white. But update the current wording post, don't just make a new one!

There is still an objection on the table to the -1/-1 counters. If you must have that ability, then the "safe" way of doing it is to put decay counters on the enchantment and have the enchantment give the creature -X/-X, where X is the number of decay counters on the enchantment.
