What it does
Target creature gains deathtouch until end of turn. Regenerate it. (The next time that creature would be destroyed this turn, instead tap it, remove it from combat, and heal all damage on it.)
A servant of Pharika must know countless balms that heal and soothe—and countless more that do the opposite.

Where it came from
Necrobite was released in 2014 as part of the Born of the Gods expansion for Magic: The Gathering, the second set in the Theros block. Mechanically, it functions as a black instant that provides a creature with deathtouch and regeneration, reflecting the set's thematic focus on the divine and mortal struggle within the Greco-Roman inspired plane of Theros.
The card’s illustration was created by artist Nils Hamm, who is known for his atmospheric and moody contributions to the game. Hamm utilized a dark, visceral color palette to capture the moment of the 'necrobite,' emphasizing the grotesque intersection of life and death that defines black-aligned magic in this setting. The design was received as a functional, flavor-aligned utility card that helped solidify the set's identity as a high-fantasy world heavily influenced by mythological heroism.
