Zemoo sets out on his task of finding the lotus, but as the months turn into years, he grows bored. There is also the punishment for failure looming in the uncertain, but near future. Unsure of how much time he has until they decide to end his search, he decides to end it himself by fabricating the flower to pass it off as the real thing. Since he is never without a large escort of armed guards he knows he must create a diversion and fool them. Failure to make the fake, undetected, will mean certain death for him.
He leads them to the desert, hoping for a sandstorm. If big enough he may able to escape outright, though he doubts a desert he crossed alone would be enough to keep the leonin out of his hair forever. After "explaining" how a flower could bloom in the desert (it was no ordinary flower after all) they set out.
Several days into their expedition was when the ground erupted into the air, swallowing the vanguard. It was a Great sandwurm, whose resting grounds they stumbled across. It's not what he planned but it was a chance, none the less. Zemoo deployed one of his stealth thopters to the pit displaced by the wurm. He could reshape it to the flower in the pit without being detected by the distracted leonin. After dispatching the wurm (by comandeering and exploding the eaten leonin's wepons). He is able to retrieve the fabled "Lotus" in the wurm's hollow.
Not his best work, but good enough to fool the leonin attendants, and later the queen. Hard to blame them since they had never seen the real thing before. Refusing any big ceremony since he wanted to hurry home before his forgery was discovered, Zemoo is able to gain both the Trust of the leonin and his freedom and is allowed to leave in peace.

Updated card to fit better with the rules. Hopefully this is better. Since the character hasn't found the lotus (yet?), left out the tutor part.
Zemoo decides to accompany the Leonin, not for fear of his life, but because it seems more interesting than fighting.
As a display of his artifice, he has the thopters flanking Joru deactivate their camouflage and reveal themselves, weapons aimed at his head and heart. The blade trap he was holding comes to life, folding itself into a form with legs, and scurries into the underbrush, as does the bow Joru had let drop to his side. "I'm glad you had a peaceful resolution in mind," Zemoo taunts before following the prince.

~ cannot be blocked by artifact creatures or equipped creatures.
Whenever ~ deals combat damage to an opponent, that player reveals the top card of their library. You may search your library for an artifact card with the same converted mana cost as the revealed card and put it into your hand, if you do, shuffle your library.

While it would make sense for an inventor to stay in the lab and work on his magnum opus, Zemoo is not responsible and would rather sojourn through the desert than work on the task at hand. There may even be good materials for his project on the other side.
A master of traps himself, he easily detects and disarms any traps he encounters on his journey. Having kept his gear light, to reduce encumbrance through the dessert, he has no means to bypass the leonin, not that he needs it to take on one. And without his more powerful weapons he won't "accidentally" attract attention, so he shouldn't run into too much resistance.
