        Oracle textWhen Forerunner of the Empire enters the battlefield, you may search your library for a Dinosaur card, reveal it, then shuffle your library and put that card on top of it.

Whenever another Dinosaur enters the battlefield under your control, you may have Forerunner of the Empire deal 1 damage to each creature.
