Happy Pride, Everyone!
In Magistrum City, there is no such thing as Pride Month. Pride started as a protest for queer rights. Discrimination on the basis of sexuality is a foreign concept to the people of Magistrum City. Queer relationships are so normalized that no one even stops...
To The Point
"I'm not fond of a direct approach. But there can be no disputing its effectiveness." It takes a rare fool for Professor Rabrandt "Enigma" Cyanis to take the field and enter direct combat. His preferred methods of conflict resolution involve more finesse and subtlety. But occasionally...
A Flight of Fancy
"I'm not as out of shape as I use to be, Ed. I'll have you know I can run myself back home on these legs!" Mortimer, the lithe, bespectacled rabbitkin student of the Theorum Magistrum, placed his left hands on his hips, using the other to...
Command and Conquer

Enigma, the Slayer
I've been seriously thinking about this "Planeswalkers as creatures" design space and how else it could be applied. And in that context, the Emperor Enigma felt like an appropriate vehicle to explore that space further. If planeswalkers can be creatures, then they can be given a...
The Dragon’s Bane
"Powerful as you are, you are still bound by nature. We titans defy the natural order. You are nothing before me." Empowered by the titan serum, and mind warped when his magic made contact with its personalty-altering additives, the wolfkin once known as Enigma has bought...
Back Alley Dealings
Enigma: "I have to ask. How did you manage to evade authorities for so long? You stand out more than anyone else I've ever apprehended." Volpes: "Simple, detective. Before I started my own 'enterprise', there were others. They were so adept at 'policing' their own territories...
