What it does
Bird creatures get +1/+1.
1 generic mana white mana: Target Bird creature gains banding until end of turn. (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 a player controls are blocking or being blocked by a creature, that player divides that creature's combat damage, not its controller, among any of the creatures it's being blocked by or is blocking.)

Where it came from
Soraya the Falconer was released in October 1995 as part of the Homelands expansion for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Developed by Wizards of the Coast, the set was designed to explore the lore of the plane of Ulgrotha, a dark, isolated world struggling with the lingering influence of ancient planeswalkers. The card was created to support the expansion’s focus on thematic creature types, specifically granting abilities to Birds, reflecting the character's role as an avian scout within the set's narrative.
The artwork for Soraya was illustrated by Anson Maddocks, one of the original artists involved in the game’s early years. His depiction captures a stoic, desert-attired figure clutching a bird of prey, consistent with the gritty, high-fantasy aesthetic prominent in mid-90s card illustrations. Upon its release, the card received a mixed reception from players, as the specific mechanical synergy it provided was considered niche compared to the more powerful staples of the era.
