Card Characteristics:

• Card Type: Land - Cave.

Card Abilities and Interaction:

• Tapped Entry: Hidden Necropolis enters the battlefield tapped, delaying its immediate use for mana.
• Mana Source: Tapping Hidden Necropolis provides black mana (B).
• Discover Mechanic: By sacrificing Hidden Necropolis and paying 4B, you can activate its Discover 4 ability. This allows you to exile cards from the top of your library until you find a nonland card with mana value 4 or less. You can cast that card without paying its mana cost or put it into your hand.

Flavor and Lore: The name "Hidden Necropolis" evokes a sense of an ancient, hidden burial site. The artwork by Svetlin Velinov likely captures the eerie and mysterious atmosphere of the location.

Overall Impression: Hidden Necropolis provides black mana and features a Discover mechanic, offering potential card advantage by allowing you to cast or place a specific card into your hand. The tapped entry is a drawback, but the ability to access powerful spells can outweigh this limitation.
