"Find me cards equivalent to: Merry Bards"

Equivalent red cards to Merry Bards (Creature — Human Bard, ETB, creates/enables Role or token with a triggered effect):
1. Embereth Veteran

Reason: Red creature, Human subtype, ETB ability creates impact, though not Role-specific.
2. Battlefield Raptor

Reason: Red creature, triggers on attack to provide a benefit, similar to Role's attack effect.
3. Voltstrider Bard

Reason: Red, Creature — Human Bard, triggers on casting adventure spells, fits Bard flavor.

None have exactly the same Role mechanic, but Merry Bards is included for reference. Red commonly grants attack-triggered buffs or creates tokens, not many make Roles, but these are the closest in spirit.

    Rules

  • A permanent can have multiple Roles attached to it if each one is controlled by a different player.
  • Cards in the Wilds of Eldraine main set create six different Role tokens: Cursed, Monster, Royal, Sorcerer, Wicked, and Young Hero. A seventh Role token, Virtuous, is created by Ellivere of the Wild Court, the commander of the “Virtue and Valor” Commander Deck.
  • Hexproof and shroud won’t prevent a Role from becoming attached to a permanent if the ability creating that Role attached to that permanent doesn’t target it.
  • If a permanent has more than one Role attached to it controlled by the same player, each of those Roles except the one with the most recent timestamp is put into its owner’s graveyard. This is a state-based action.
  • If two or more Roles controlled by the same player become attached to a permanent at the same time (perhaps due to an effect such as that of Doubling Season), that player chooses which one to keep and which are put into their owners’ graveyards.
  • In rare cases, a spell or ability might attempt to create a Role token enchanting a permanent that it can’t legally enchant (because of an ability like protection from enchantments). In such cases, the Role token isn’t created.
  • Roles are colorless enchantment tokens. Each one has the Aura and Role subtypes and the enchant creature ability.
  • Some spells and abilities that create Role tokens require targets. If each target chosen is an illegal target as that spell or ability tries to resolve, it won’t resolve. The Role token won’t be created.

  • You don't choose a target for Merry Bards's ability at the time its enters-the-battlefield ability triggers. Rather, a second "reflexive" ability triggers when you pay {1} this way. You choose a target for that ability as it goes on the stack. Each player may respond to this triggered ability as normal.
