Adon was the Canaanite version of the Phoenician Tammuz, the precursor to the Greek Adonis. He was a perfect specimen of man, who was coveted by Afroditi and Persephone. When Ares learned of his lover's other lover, the god of war sent a boar to kill Adonis while hunting. His blood became flowers, and Adon became another one of those great death/rebirth gods.

Note: This card was never printed. The final version from the design team has been spoiled to players on the Anachronism forums. There's no telling whether or not this card will be printed, and if it were, that it'd have the same text as the spoiled version.
As is, one will notice missing elements, since the card hasn't been finished. There's no artist or flavor text; card names and ability titles are English, rather than Punic.
