Overview

Legality, special rules, and flavor text

Rules

Offspring {2} (You may pay an additional {2} as you cast this spell. If you do, when this creature enters, create a 1/1 token copy of it.) When this creature enters, you may forage. If you do, put two +1/+1 counters on it. (To forage, exile three cards from your graveyard or sacrifice a Food.)

Rulings

Any "enters" abilities of the copied creature will trigger when the token enters. Any "as [this creature] enters" or "[this creature] enters with" abilities of the copied creature will also work. — If the spell is countered, the offspring ability will not trigger, and no token will be created. — If the spell resolves but the creature with offspring leaves the battlefield before the offspring ability resolves, you'll still create a token copy of it. — If you don't have enough cards in your graveyard or a Food on the battlefield, you can't choose to forage. — In the rare case where the creature doesn't have the offspring ability when it enters, the ability won't trigger even if you paid the offspring cost. — In the rare case where the original creature is copying something else when the offspring ability resolves, the token enters as whatever that creature copied, except it's a 1/1. — Many creatures with offspring abilities have other abilities that refer to them as "this creature" rather than referring to them by name. This difference is for clarity purposes and does not change the function of any of these abilities. — Once you announce that you're casting a spell or activating an ability, players can't take actions until you've finished doing so. Notably, opponents can't try to remove cards from your graveyard or Foods you control to stop you from foraging. — The token copies exactly what was printed on the original creature and nothing else, except it's a 1/1 (unless that creature is copying something else; see below). It doesn't copy whether that creature is tapped or untapped, whether it has any counters on it or Auras and Equipment attached to it, or any non-copy effects that have changed its types, color, or so on. — The token created by the offspring ability isn't "cast", so abilities that trigger when a creature spell is cast won't trigger for the copy. — You can pay an offspring cost only once as you cast a spell with offspring. You can't try to pay it multiple times to get more token copies. — You decide whether to forage or not as Bushy Bodyguard's last ability resolves. Once that ability starts resolving, it's too late for any player to respond before Bushy Bodyguard gets the +1/+1 counters if you foraged. — Food is an artifact type. Even though it appears on some creatures, it's never a creature type. — Whatever you do, don't eat the delicious cards. — You can't sacrifice a Food to pay multiple costs. For example, you can't sacrifice a Food token to activate its own ability and also to activate Maraleaf Rider's ability.
