Secret Lair Cards
Agent of Treachery
When this creature enters, gain control of target permanent.
At the beginning of your end step, if you control three or more permanents you don't own, draw three cards.
Dethrone (Whenever this creature attacks the player with the most life or tied for most life, put a +1/+1 counter on it.)
Other creatures you control have dethrone.
Whenever a creature you control with a +1/+1 counter on it dies, return that card to the battlefield under your control at the beginning of the next end step.
{T}, Sacrifice two other creatures: Any number of target players each lose 2 life and sacrifice a creature of their choice. You add {B}{B} and draw a card.
Nontoken creatures you control have riot. (They enter with your choice of a +1/+1 counter or haste.)
If a creature you control with a +1/+1 counter on it would deal damage to a permanent or player, it deals double that damage instead.
Given the rarity and limited information on some bonus cards, this may not be a complete list of all potential bonus cards available in this Secret Lair.
Fatestitcher
{T}: You may tap or untap another target permanent.
Unearth {U} ({U}: Return this card from your graveyard to the battlefield. It gains haste. Exile it at the beginning of the next end step or if it would leave the battlefield. Unearth only as a sorcery.)
{1}: You may cast target creature card in a graveyard this turn. When you cast it this turn, this creature gains all activated abilities of that card until end of turn.
Intimidate (This creature can't be blocked except by artifact creatures and/or creatures that share a color with it.)
Whenever a Human deals damage to you, destroy it.
Other non-Human creatures you control get +1/+1 and have undying. (When a creature with undying dies, if it had no +1/+1 counters on it, return it to the battlefield under its owner's control with a +1/+1 counter on it.)
If a Zombie you control would deal combat damage to a player, instead that player mills that many cards.
Whenever a creature card is put into an opponent's graveyard from their library, exile that card and create a 2/2 black Zombie creature token.
