Defiler of Instinct (PDMU-119p) is a Creature — Phyrexian Kavu from the Dominaria United Promos set and is printed as a rare. It has first strike and a static additional-cost option that lets you pay 2 life to reduce the red portion of red permanent spells by {R}, and it deals 1 damage to any target whenever you cast a red permanent spell. Its abilities support aggressive red decks by both discounting red permanents when you pay life and providing repeatable direct damage triggers.
