Centennial Puzzle
Common
The first time you lose HP each combat, draw 3 cards.
The first time each combat that damage gets through your Block, the Puzzle draws you 3 cards on the spot. Only unblocked damage counts, so a fully blocked hit does not wake it. Damage you deal to yourself counts: Bloodletting uses the same damage command and fires the draw on your own turn. The flag resets when combat ends: one draw per fight.
