Mercenary is an Action–Attack from Dark Ages. It does a little bit of everything—it's a terminal silver, terminal draw, trasher, and handsize attack, all in one card. You can only get it by playing Urchin.

[edit] Card Art
The art includes a dagger and red sash from Urchin.
[edit] Secret History
Originally Urchin turned into an earlier version of Rogue, as told in that story. When that didn't work out I tried Mercenary. It's a bigger discard-based attack, so you can feel like your Urchin got better at that kind of thing. Otherwise it was a card I'd tried as a regular kingdom card in the set but which had been too good. It's still pretty snazzy if your Urchins hit right away. It's a Steward that does all three things!
