#fanplane cordifá

[lord-of-innistrad]

Updated Fanwalker List! More will be added after the Phyrexian Arc concludes.

Tessa (She/Her)

W/U/B Human - 35

Tessa is from Innistrad where she started life as a mono-white student cathar. In a duel with a fellow student, she got very close to death where her spark ignited and she planeswalked to Cordifá my fanplane. Stuck there without resources to learn to planeswalk, she slowly learned that not every place saw spirits as restless undead, and learned the art of Spirit Summoning, which allowed her access to blue and black. Eventually learning how to planeswalk, she left Cordifá and returned home, finding it in shambles after the events of Eldritch Moon, and left to explore the multiverse.

During the events of War of the Spark, she found herself drawn to Ravnica through the use of the Interplanar Beacon and was trapped there due to Bolas's use of the Immortal Sun. She found her blue magic drew the attention of the Eternals, and so avoided it, using her Cathar blade and spirit magic to protect her fellow walkers.

In between then and the events of Kaldheim around the time of Ikoria, Cesare Siaci stole an artifact Tessa was meant to get known as the Time Vial and used it to wreak havoc on the planes of Innistrad, Dominaria, and Eldraine. Tessa and her group of friends summoned the Gatewatch to help them capture Cesare while he attempted a coup in Fiora and imprison him.

During the events of Midnight Hunt, Tessa returned to her homeplane to discover the days shortening and Tovolar's wolves threatening the general population. She allied with the Dawnheart Coven and the members of the Gatewatch to defend the Celestus from the wolves, protecting the back flank. Ultimately this would fail as Olivia Voldaren undermined the ritual.

Crimson Vow saw Tessa invited as a plus one to a Stromkirk Nephalian vampire who disagreed with the union of the big houses. When the party was crashed by the other walkers, Tessa used her spirit magic to command the souls of Olivia's cape once freed and used them to her advantage in the duel with the vampires of the Markov and Voldaren families. Rebuffed by Katilda as nothing more than a Geist controller, Tessa left after the day was won, but before the moonsilver key could be used to bring the sunrise.

Seth (He/Him)

B Human - 22

A former Amonkhet initiate, before the events of Amonkhet, Seth was going to be the next victorious initiate in the trials, until Bontu asked him to murder his best and closest friend. When Seth refused, demanding to know what kind of God-Pharoh would demand this, he was exiled to the desert outside the Hekma. Attacked by zombies, he lost his eye and nearly died, but instead planeswalked away to Eldraine. Rescued and mistaken for a knight of Locthwain, he then became a witch hunter, until actually knighted by Ayara.

Whenever the Interplanar Beacon he was drawn to Ravnica and trapped there by Bolas's use of the Immortal Sun. He had a crisis seeing his gods as Eternal warriors, and almost died to an Eternal himself, until rescued by Tessa.

In between then and the events of Kaldheim, Seth was involved with the events of Cesare with the Time Vial.

During the events of Midnight Hunt, Seth traveled to Cordifá which he was told about by Tessa. Arriving in Tela, he was struck by the corruption of the wealthy casino owners, and started a revolution among the lowlier vampires.

Cesare (He/Him)

G/U/B Elf - Pre-Mending

An oldwalker Elf from Paliano, Cesare sparked when poisoned by the King of Paliano in a scheme.

At some point after the Mending, he made a deal with the Simic to grant him shapeshifting powers and access to blue.

Sometime after Battle for Zendikar but before Zendikar Rising he found his sword, Darling in some ruins which lets him steal magic from people.

During the events of War of the Spark, he was summoned to Ravnica through the use of the Interplanar Beacon and trapped there through Bolas's use of the Immortal Sun. Bolas offered him a place at his side. Seeing through his schemes, and knowing he wouldn't share power, he sided with the Simic and led their slime forces into battle with the Eternals.

Prior to the events of Kaldheim, he stole the Time Vial from Tessa, and used it to wreak havoc on the homeplanes of Tessa, Edgrigos and Seth. Whenever he tried to overthrow Queen Marchesa with it on Fiora, he was arrested by the Gatewatch and thrown into the dungeons of Marchesa's palace.

Edgrigos (He/They)

R/W Savai Thundermane - 18

During the events of Ikoria, Edgrigos gained sentience due to the powers of the Ozolith. He ignited while being hunted by poachers. Traveling to Dominaria he managed to fall in with Dominarian Cat-Folk, and lived with them, adopting their ways. They now own a library which they use to store history from across the multiverse.

Before the events of Kaldheim, Edgrigos was involved in the arrest of Cesare when he had the Time Vial.

Savah (They/Them)

B/R Myr - 50

Before the compleation of Mirrodin but after the Mending, Savah was taken over from Memnarch by an oldwalker and separated from their bretheren. They traveled the multiverse with the oldwalker. Dying of old age, the walker attempted to transfer his spark to Savah, which resulted in immediate death and Savah's ascension.

Savah traveled back to Mirrodin to find the plane taken over by the Phyrexians. Taking uncompleated Myr with them to Dominaria, they set up base there and frequently clash with Edgrigos.

Rebada (They/Them)

B/R/G Horror - 25

During the events of Midnight Hunt, Redaba was stuck in political prison on Cordifá in the region of Berbe. Eventually, Seth's actions in Tela gave a sympathy in Berbe for political prisoners, and they were released. The joy of being released caused them to planeswalk to Theros where they currently live.

Mechanics of the Factions of Cordifá

Cordifá is my fanplane, a shard based world. For this I selected nine complimentary mechanics (and invented one more), two for each faction, and made custom cards, seen under the cut

WUB - Toles - Exploit/Afterlife

Afterlife was selected first because of this factions theme of respecting the dead. Exploit was chosen to be complimentary to Afterlife and added a theme of disregarding the living.

GWU - Seves - Rebound/Oblivion

Oblivion is the mechanic I invented. It means whenever you cast a card from exile you do something. It was intended to compliment Rebound.

RGW - Ristan - Populate/Fabricate

Populate is one of the best mechanics in GW in my humble opinion. The addition of Fabricate is meant to represent civil engineering as well as grant tokens not usually seen in green.

Berbe - BRG - Bloodrush/Escape

This group I'm not sure about. I like the theme of discarding for value and then exiling for more value, I just wish Escape wasn't named that.

UBR - Tela - Dash/Revolt

Dash came first for this pair with revolt chosen to compliment it. I imagine it would play out a card dashing and then a revolt card being played. Also I liked the idea of my drake card for this one being a handsome gambler.

And that's it! Let me know what you guys think!

[lord-of-innistrad]

I made a map of my fanplane, Cordifá!

[lord-of-innistrad]

Factions of Cordifá

Someone mentioned in the tags that they wanted to know more about the factions in a flavor sense.

Toles - WUB

This one was the most developed in my mind when starting the plane if that isn't abundantly clear. They have a great respect for spirits and ancestors, but not much for the actual living, breathing members. Ancestor's Day is celebrated all over the plane, but is held in high importance in Toles.

Their special denzien is Spirit.

Seves GWU

Originally my only idea for this group was that they followed an honor code, but we've seen that before. Now they are much more. In the old caliphate, there was research into time with a religious aspect. That clergy currently controls the Ancient Capital, and Seves. They are organized into classes with time clergy at the top, then the artists and poets, then the warriors, and finally common folk.

Their special denizen is Giant.

Ristan - RGW

This group is led by civil engineers and architects, with a philosophy of being stronger with many. However, they are also in tune with nature, with many cities being formed out of trees and cliff faces. Servos do the day to day management of infrastructure.

Their special denizen is Beast.

Berbe - BRG

In tune with the darker side of nature, the mangrove swamps and volcanoes of Berbe are home to poisoners, but also doctors due to the wide variety of herbs and other plants. Currently, this taifa is going through an upheaval, where the ruling people are split in two and warring against eachother.

One group believes the best way to honor the legacy of the old caliphate is to lean into the assassination that has plagued the taifa since its formation and the other believes that the poisionings and assassinations are barbaric.

Currently both sides have a vested interest in locking up rivals and taking the Ancient Capital away from Seves.

Their special denizen is Horror

Tela - UBR

Tela is run as a magocracy and a plutocracy all rolled into one. Their noble, wizarding class run a variety of tourism companies and casinoes, and the speed at which they spring into battle is unparalleled. However a revolt is surely brewing, as the working class is tired of their beautiful vistas being sold to no benefit to themselves...

Their special denizen is Vampire.

[lord-of-innistrad]

Hi! Tell me something that's been on your mind lately! Anything you've been working on?

I've been working on my fanplane, and I've been debating making an entire custom set for it. I also have an idea for two romantically involved fanwalkers on the back burner. A black/red/green horror and a green/white centaur.

[lord-of-innistrad]

I made cards of the two fanwalkers being included in my Cordifá custom set. I'm debating whether or not other walkers should appear and if so, which ones?

Seth is the leader of the Tela revolutionaries, while Redaba, my newest fanwalker, sparks in story.

I really need to come up with a set symbol for Cordifa. Using the default mtg.design one is getting old.

[lord-of-innistrad]

Tell me about your fanplane! What's it like? What sort of mechanics have you thought about for the set?

So, the plane of Cordifá itself is a top down, based off of a period in medieval spain's history, when the old muslim caliphate collapsed, leaving behind several taifas.

So there are five of these taifas in my plane, each corresponding to a shard.

Toles is White Blue Black

Seves is Green White Blue

Ristan is Red Green White

Berbe is Black Red Green

Tela is Blue Black Red

Each faction has a pair of mechanics, one typically seen in an allied color pair, and then another, complimentary mechanic. I go into detail in this post

[lord-of-innistrad]

These are the cycle of cards for the leaders of the various kingdoms on my fanplane of Cordifá!   I’m happiest with Terren as I think he fits well flavorally into the fun loving Kingdom of Tela with their casinos and tourism.

[lord-of-innistrad]

I made a cycle of cards using the new mechanics I decided on for Cordifá!

[lord-of-innistrad]

I'm bored. Send me asks about either my fanwalkers or my fanplane.

[lord-of-innistrad]

What is your ocs magic? Dose it have a proper name? What dose it look like? How do they cast it? Dose it require any extra components to uses?

Tessa is a spirit summoner. That is its proper name. She can summon and communicate with spirits, and use them in both offensive and defensive combat.

It generally looks like black and purple spirits formed out of mist or fog. She also has a more physically formed spirit ferret companion, named Selene.

When she communicates with spirits they are often confused and need to be guided, or will sometimes have a purpose she must aid with first.

It's casting involves a focusing upon the self and the spirit world of each plane, which she must familiarize herself with first. Some planes are easier than others. Her home plane of Innistrad is easiest, along with my fanplane of Cordifá. Somewhere with very little connections to spirits is much harder.

It requires no material components, but it does require hand gestures and such. Somatic components as it were.

Thanks for the ask!

Planebound Oc

You've seen kor milfs, but how about kor Dilfs?

I offer up Kaira, from my fanplane of Cordifá.

A retired older general in the kingdom of Ristan (RGW), Kaira lost his arm in a battle over the Keep of Tristes on the border with Berbe (BRG) which he won.

He has two adult biological children and is a single father, taking great care of them in their youth. He has adopted three human kids ages 9, 12, and 15.

Kaira loves his home and became a civil engineer after his retirement from military service.
