For the name: Mr. Toilet

For the deck: a bunch of red flanking creatures: Blazing Blade Askari, Burning Shield Askari, Searing Spear Askari, Bogardan Lancer, Suq'Ata Lancer, with more original ideas to come later.

I think your best bet is flanking tribal. That is all he does... And things like Darksteel Plate and Whispersilk Cloak so he doesn't die when attacking, and Strionic Resonator for a total of +2/+2. I know. Wow.

Unfortunately there are only 8 red cards with flanking, including Telim'Tor. Agility, Blazing Blade Askari, Burning Shield Askari, Suq'Ata Lancer, Bogardan Lancer, Jabari's Banner and Searing Spear Askari. That is significantly less than 99 cards.

Telim'Tor theme deck is also far fetched. Only 8 cards that mention him in flavor text, 5 of which you can play, and 3 of those I've mentioned or you already have (Suq'Ata Lancer, Telim'Tor's Darts, and Telim'Tor himself. So go ahead and add the terrible cards known as Razor Pendulum and Diamond Kaleidoscope.

I think you've dug yourself too deep on this one. Maybe do unplayable card tribal. TheManaSource on youtube has a series called Worst Cards Ever. Just play everything he talks about.
