What it does
Each creature card in your graveyard has scavenge. The scavenge cost is equal to its mana cost. (Exile a creature card from your graveyard and pay its mana cost: Put a number of +1/+1 counters equal to that card's power on target creature. Scavenge only as a sorcery.)
Whenever chaos ensues, create two 1/1 white Warrior creature tokens.

Where it came from
The Cave of Skulls is a card from the Doctor Who trading card series, specifically associated with the early narratives of the long-running British science fiction program. It serves as a visual representation of the show's 1963 debut serial, An Unearthly Child, where the Doctor and his companions first encounter a primitive society. The card was produced to celebrate the historical impact of the program, capturing the stark, atmospheric aesthetic of the show's black-and-white origins.
The artwork for this piece was crafted by Nino Is, who aimed to distill the eerie tension of the original broadcast into a miniature format. By focusing on the jagged, prehistoric environment and the unsettling presence of the skulls, the design leans into the grounded, slightly menacing tone that defined the era. Within the hobby, the card is recognized as a common entry that provides accessible entry points for fans wishing to catalog the chronological progression of the Doctor's televised adventures.
