Waveskimmer Aven, Creature — bird soldier, designed by Mark Zug first released in Oct, 2008 in the set Shards of Alara.
Waveskimmer Aven would be a great addition to a Bant Exalted deck in Magic: the Gathering, as it synergizes well with the exalted mechanic by granting additional power to a solo attacking creature. However, there are potentially better options like Sublime Archangel, which provides a more significant boost to all attacking creatures. Waveskimmer Aven could still see play in a more budget-friendly or theme-focused deck, but for competitive play, other cards may offer stronger effects.

Exalted bonuses last until end of turn. If an effect creates an additional combat phase during your turn, a creature that attacked alone during the first combat phase will still have its exalted bonuses in that new phase. If a creature attacks alone during the second combat phase, all your exalted abilities will trigger again.

If you declare exactly one creature as an attacker, each exalted ability on each permanent you control (including, perhaps, the attacking creature itself) will trigger. The bonuses are given to the attacking creature, not to the permanent with exalted. Ultimately, the attacking creature will wind up with +1/+1 for each of your exalted abilities.

Some effects put creatures onto the battlefield attacking. Since those creatures were never declared as attackers, they’re ignored by exalted abilities. They won’t cause exalted abilities to trigger. If any exalted abilities have already triggered (because exactly one creature was declared as an attacker), those abilities will resolve as normal even though there may now be multiple attackers.
