Jared, True Heir

When Jared Carthalion enters, target opponent becomes the monarch. You can't become the monarch this turn.
If damage would be dealt to Jared Carthalion while you're the monarch, prevent that damage and put that many +1/+1 counters on it.
"And Jared rebelled against his father... And it came to pass that he did flatter many people, because of his cunning words, until he had gained the half of the kingdom." - BOM
