Are there any creatures that do something similar to Akroma's Memorial?

I'm looking for a creature in Temur colors that can protect other creatures and provide some sort of evasion.

I usually find a creature that can do one or the other, but rarely both. If there was something that could merge Archetype of Imagination with Kira, Great Glass-Spinner , I'd be all set.

This is for an Animorphs deck, which is why there's a lot of emphasis on a creature that can provide both abilities, as opposed to an artifact.

To the best of my knowledge there is no creature that provides protection and evasion to your other creatures at the same time. Artifacts and enchantments can do that because that's all they do, a creature that did that would be bonkers. Some protection creatures for temur would be Prowling Serpopard, Archetype of Endurance, the ones mentioned above, some you can sac to counter a spell, like Mausoleum Wanderer, but those probably aren't what you're looking for. Asceticism is probably the best protection card green has, but is not a creature. Eldrazi Monument is an artifact but provides what you want as a cost you may not want to pay... Surrak Dragonclaw provides pseudo evasion and a bit of protection I suppose

Stonehoof Chieftain is what comes to my mind, but the protection isnt permanently.

Still a solid creature for animar as he has 7 generic mana in his cost

The closest thing is probably Void Winnower.

The 3 paragons in those colors might help. Paragon of Gathering Mists, Paragon of Eternal Wilds, Paragon of Fierce Defiance. They aren't great, but I'm not sure what else to offer outside of what has already been mentioned.

Soul of New Phyrexia is the closest thing, I think. I run Asceticism and Surrak Dragonclaw as well.

Champion of Lambholt gives evasion over time and gets annoying quick.

Vigor as well.

Spearbreaker Behemoth is pretty good for these colors as well. Temur Sabertooth could be something you look at. Provides indestructible to it while bouncing another creature, potentially saving it from a wrath effect.

Thanks, everyone: I appreciate your advice.
