Gameplay

Legendary Creature — Halfling Citizen

Whenever one or more Halflings you control attack a player, create a Food token. (It's an artifact with "{2}, {T}, Sacrifice this token: You gain 3 life.")

"My dear old Hobbit, you don't allow for the inquisitiveness of friends. I have known about the existence of the Ring for years."

Food is an artifact type. Even though it appears on some creatures, it's never a creature type.

Whatever you do, don't eat the delicious cards.

You can't sacrifice a Food to pay multiple costs. For example, you can't sacrifice a Food token to activate its own ability and also to activate Maraleaf Rider's ability.
