What it does
Gríma can't be blocked.
Whenever Gríma deals combat damage to a player, that player exiles cards from the top of their library until they exile an instant or sorcery card. You may cast that card without paying its mana cost. Then that player puts the exiled cards that weren't cast this way on the bottom of their library in a random order.

Where it came from
Gríma, Saruman's Footman, was issued as part of 'The Hobbit Eternal' set, a collection developed to bridge the gap between traditional fantasy tabletop gaming and the expansive visual history of Tolkien's adaptations. The card was designed to capture the quiet, unsettling influence of the character within the halls of Edoras, emphasizing his role as a manipulative shadow rather than a frontline combatant.
The visual direction for the piece focused on a stark, minimalist aesthetic, contrasting the character's pallid complexion against the dark, oppressive architecture of Orthanc. Critics of the set noted that the illustration succeeded in conveying a sense of unease, though some collectors felt the card’s mechanics struggled to reflect the depth of the character's political subversion as depicted in the source material.
