Flying; banding (Any creatures with banding, and up to one without, can attack in a band. Bands are blocked as a group. If any creatures with banding you control are blocking or being blocked by a creature, you divide that creature's combat damage, not its controller, among any of the creatures it's being blocked by or is blocking.)
red mana: This creature gets +1/+0 until end of turn. If this ability has been activated four or more times this turn, sacrifice this creature at the beginning of the next end step.

Where it came from
The Nalathni Dragon was originally commissioned in 1994 as a promotional card for the DragonCon gaming convention in Atlanta. It holds a distinct place in Magic: The Gathering history as one of the first cards produced specifically for distribution outside of standard retail booster packs, marking an early experiment in promotional exclusivity for the game.
The card features artwork by Quinton Hoover, a prolific artist whose style defined much of the early aesthetic of the game. For the Mystery Booster 2 release, this card was reprinted with the original art and the classic frame, serving as a nostalgic nod to the mid-90s era of the trading card game and the convention culture that helped foster its early competitive growth.
