The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- He was a Northumbrian cowherd who cared for the animals at the double monastery of Streonæshalch during the abbacy of Hilda.
- He was originally ignorant of "the art of song" but learned to compose one night in the course of a dream, according to the 8th-century Christian historian Bede.
- He is venerated as a saint in the Eastern Orthodox Church, Catholic Church and Anglicanism, with a feast day on 11 February.

Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Cædmon article was read about 39,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 73 and blocks with 63: each hit it takes is cut by 25 %.
