Inquisitor Eisenhorn

Legendary Creature — Human Inquisitor · {2}{U}{B} · Black/Blue commander

You may reveal the first card you draw each turn as you draw it. Whenever you reveal an instant or sorcery card this way, create Cherubael, a legendary 4/4 black Demon creature token with flying. Whenever Inquisitor Eisenhorn deals combat damage to a player, investigate that many times. (Create a Clue token. It's an artifact with "{2}, Sacrifice this token: Draw a card.")
