Tymna the Weaver is the main engine here, drawing into the wincons of Debt to the Deathless and Exquisite Blood + Sanguine Bond and the like. Ikra Shidiqi, the Usurper supports her by providing the life to spend. The rest of the creatures and enchantments either support Ikra Shadiqi by gaining life, or providing ways to spend that life.
