Started working for Magic last year, and this is the first card to be released. Zimone's Pop Quiz! AD: Sam Padilla

Zimone: Do you ever wear something that fully covers your torso?

Tyvar: I would rather die.

Chapter 1 of Duskmourn story posted today. Highlights and spoilers under the break.

- Having a description of suburbia in Magic feels so strange. Especially with the family feeling like they pulled the Deetzes straight from Beetlejuice.

- Kaito and Emperor with bonus Yoshimaru. Is this the good boy's official magic story debut?

- Duskmourn is very interesting in concept. A parasitic plane that sends out its feelers to abduct people into the house through doors that shouldn't be there. Wonder if this is only a recent result of the Phyrexian invasion or if it's been going on since the house took over Duskmourn. Also makes me wonder if Duskmourn is a transient plane like Shandalar, moving through the multiverse.

- Tyvar, my beloved. First himbo in our hearts.

- Niko being desparked sucks to hear but also seems kind of inevitable. I don't know how they polled with the audience during first Kaldheim, but I always liked them.

- "why is that man not wearing a shirt?"

- I hadn't considered before the story dropped how much Niko and Aminatou might be at odds due to their very core character differences. Surprising that Niko has heard of Aminatou though. I always imagined Aminatou as more obscure even in the world of plainswalkers.

- Aminatou has checkpoint powers. Weird use of bending fate, but okay.

- Proft present, barely.

Okay but hear me out. Everyone on reddit was saying that Zimone's "death" here was really tame in comparison to everyone elses. Which yeah, I get it because this could be taken metaphorically, but like:

Was I the only one who took the phrasing of "breaking from inside as it blossomed into a new, smaller version of the creature" literally when I read it? Like WAS I THE ONLY ONE WHO THOUGHT OF "The Quarry" or "Alien" when Zimone "died" here? (like this but from human to monster:)

Reminder: The other four are Planeswalkers, whether in the past or currently. They are all very experienced adults. Zimone is 16 at the youngest as she stated herself she was older than Marina. But she's definitely not over 18 either. She is a student. A child. The fact that she can just have this happen to her and carry on instantly is SO BADASS OF HER.

In this essay I will-

Colleges of Strixhaven: Quandrix

A new theme week release from my Patreon, this one looking at Quandrix, the College of Numeramancy from the Strixhaven campaign setting. Students of Quandrix use the power of mathematics to delve deep into the underlying nature of magic, as well as the other natural workings of the world.

This release includes a new magic item, the Sequence Engine; Quandrix Command, a spell that lets you choose from a variety of smaller effects each time you cast it; and a new student to make friends (or establish rivalries) with, the mathemagical prodigy, Zimone Wola.

I love them so much! Math nerd and himbo jock fight ghosts together. Best duo i didn’t know I needed but now can’t imagine my life without.

Zimone: I think Rootha and Tyvar would get along pretty well, I should introduce them!

*later*

Zimone, 4 hours into Rootha and Tyvar doing a rap battle/skald showdown: I made a horrible mistake

[wandering-mage]

I'll admit that Tyvar is someone I am less familiar with in the story but this fully cements him in my mind as a himbo.

I see a whole bunch of posts about Tyvar going to Strixhaven, and I'm just gonna point out here that there is a personality trait in the DnD book that makes him an excellent Quandrix student:
