Djura’s Companion

Reach, Defender

Whenever a non-Great One creature would take damage, you may prevent 1 of it, up to X times per turn (X is 1 plus its +1/+0 counters). Only 1 damage can be prevented per instance.

If a protected creature survives, put a +1/+0 counter on Djura’s Companion at your next upkeep. If a protected creature dies, it loses Defender and gains First Strike until end of turn.
