    Bestow — If you cast this card for its bestow cost, it's an Aura spell with enchant creature. It becomes a creature again if it's not attached to a creature.

    Official Ruling
    If Indebted Spirit is put into a graveyard from the battlefield while it's an Aura, its afterlife ability will still trigger.
  • WWizards of the Coast2024-06-07
    Official Ruling
    If a bestowed Indebted Spirit and the creature it's attached to are put into a graveyard from the battlefield at the same time, each of their afterlife abilities will trigger.
  • WWizards of the Coast2024-06-07
    Official Ruling
    If a permanent with bestow enters the battlefield by any method other than being cast, it will be an enchantment creature. You can't choose to pay the bestow cost and have it become an Aura.
  • WWizards of the Coast2024-06-07
    Official Ruling
    Unlike other Auras, an Aura with bestow isn't put into its owner's graveyard if it becomes unattached. Rather, the effect making it an Aura ends, it loses enchant creature, and it remains on the battlefield as an enchantment creature. It can attack (and its  abilities can be activated, if it has any) on the turn it becomes unattached if it's been under your control continuously, even as an Aura, since your most recent turn began.
  • WWizards of the Coast2024-06-07
    Official Ruling
    Because blockers are chosen all at once, you can't block with a creature with afterlife, wait for it to die, then block with the resulting Spirit tokens.
  • WWizards of the Coast2024-06-07
    Official Ruling
    On the stack, a spell with bestow is either a creature spell or an Aura spell. It's never both, although it's an enchantment spell in either case.
  • WWizards of the Coast2024-06-07
    Official Ruling
    Auras attached to a creature don't become tapped when the creature becomes tapped. Except in some rare cases, an Aura with bestow remains untapped when it becomes unattached and becomes a creature.
  • WWizards of the Coast2024-06-07
    Official Ruling
    Unlike other Aura spells, an Aura spell with bestow isn't countered if its target is illegal as it begins to resolve. Rather, the effect making it an Aura spell ends, it loses enchant creature, it returns to being an enchantment creature spell, and it resolves and enters the battlefield as an enchantment creature.
