What it does
Until end of turn, if damage would be dealt to any creature, you may have that damage dealt to you instead.
The willow knows what the storm does not: that the power to endure harm outlives the power to inflict it.

Where it came from
Blood of the Martyr was released in 1994 as part of The Dark, the fourth expansion set for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Developed by Wizards of the Coast, the set was designed to explore a darker, more gothic aesthetic than the game's initial high-fantasy releases, featuring art and themes inspired by folk horror and religious iconography.
The card's artwork was created by illustrator Christopher Rush, one of the most prominent artists in the game's early history. His design aimed to evoke a sense of solemn sacrifice through a stark, illustrative style that was characteristic of the era's hand-painted card aesthetics, though the card itself is widely considered by players to have been underpowered and mechanically niche upon its release.
