Flavour text
It lurks near the borders, harvesting loose threads of wild magic where the planes meet.
Rulings
Lands are normally colorless permanents, even if they tap for mana of a certain color.
The colors are white, blue, black, red, and green. Colorless is not a color.
The value of X is calculated only once, as Shimmercreep's last ability resolves.
