How can Nephren-Ka be The Black Pharaoh if the old version of Nyarlathotep is already The Black Pharaoh?

Could be the post-Nyarlathothep-control shell that's left - I mean, he looks not as... good as the young depiction of Nyarlathoteps Pharaoh^^. In any other case this should at least be an Avatar (while Claude Owen really has no business that I understand being an Avatar.)

How many Sorcerers do you get to search your deck for after you play Invocation of the Abyss?  I assume you only get to search for one Sorcerer because even though the Invocation breaks out the card drawing into two separate sentences, it's still one effect, not two.  Anyone know?

I am unsure on this one. If you choose an opponent to shuffle their hand into their deck and redraw it, you still get the "Draw 1 card", and you would surely get to search for each of the two draws. But when you target yourself, do the adjacent draws merge under the "one or more" clause.

I dislike the lack of symmetry in it becoming only one search, but am still left tentatively favoring your interpretation, as they aren't only part of the same whole effect, but even in the same portion of a 'multiple effects' group.
