    Choose one or both — • Turn target face-down creature face up. • Exile any number of face-up creatures you control with disguise in a face-down pile, shuffle that pile, then cloak them. (To cloak a card, put it onto the battlefield face down as a 2/2 creature with ward 2 generic mana . Turn it face up any time for its mana cost if it's a creature card.)

    If a cloaked creature would have disguise (or morph) if it were face up, you may also turn it face up by paying its disguise (or morph) cost.

    Because face-down creatures don't have a name, they can't have the same name as any other creature, even another face-down creature.

    Unlike a face-down creature that was cast using a disguise or morph ability, a cloaked creature may still be turned face up after it loses its abilities if it's a creature card.
