- He is the oldest literary representation of the wild man, a recurrent motif in artistic representations in Mesopotamia and in Ancient Near Eastern literature.

ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 68 and blocks with 66: each hit it takes is cut by 26 %.
