When this creature enters, surveil 1. (Look at the top card of your library. You may put it into your graveyard.)
{2}{B}, Tap an untapped creature you control: Return this card from your graveyard to the battlefield tapped.
Purple Pentapus is a small but surprisingly resilient value piece that fits best in slower black decks built around recursion, sacrifice, and graveyard utility rather than straight aggro. A 1/1 for one black mana is modest, but the enter-the-battlefield surveil 1 helps smooth draws, set up graveyard synergies, and bin this card if you want to recycle it later. Its real strength is the activated ability: for {2}{B} and tapping an untapped creature you control, it returns itself from the graveyard tapped, turning spare bodies into repeatable material and making removal less effective. This plays especially well in control or midrange shells that can afford to hold creatures back, and in decks with token makers, since the tap cost becomes much easier to pay. Pair it with cards that reward creatures dying or entering, and you have a steady grind engine that keeps feeding value while quietly clogging the board.
