These Muscles Aren’t For Show
I tell my apprentice all the time that he's too easily goaded. I swear, people rile him up because they know he'll want to prove himself in a grandiose display of strength. The young man never took well to people insinuating his muscles were just...
A Festive Occasion
On the plane of Crossroads, there is no concept of Christmas or any other winter holiday. However, most still hold end of the year festivities. And at the Theorum Magistrum, the faculty throws a party in anticipation of the coming year. This year, it looks like...
The Day a Storm Mage Was Born
It was obvious from the moment the young man first walked into the mind mage's classroom that, while rough and unrefined, there was untapped potential hidden within. This was why he agreed to take Edmund on in the first place, to help mold him into the...
The Companion Blade
A custom Magic: The Gathering card to go with Marsel's art of my Perfect Bond Enigma. Theft has always been one of my favorite archetypes in Commander, but it's not one that I bring out often since it tends to make the people I play with...
Be Mindful of the Blade
The sword Companion, named after the symbiotic creature whose matter composes it, is a very unique weapon for a very unique wielder. In a sense, it's very literally a part of Enigma's body made manifest, especially when in Perfect Bond form. This gives it a...
Showing Off
Unlike Enigma's Perfect Form, enhanced by his symbiote Companion, Edmund has no special tricks or cheats. His strength and physique are the result of his own efforts and a life of pushing himself as far as he can go. You'd never know it from looking at...
A Warm Winter’s Treat
Students at the Theorum Magistrum are given leave during the end-of-year celebrations in order to visit friends and family, and refresh themselves for their studies. Those who don't have anywhere to go, or choose not to visit their families for whatever reason, are invited to...
Fists of Steel
While Edmund is as much a curious mind as Enigma is, which is why the detective-Planeswalker has chosen to teach him, it's also no secret that he is much less reserved that his instructor. Enigma had to be taught how to fight. His training is formal,...
Rage of the Tiger
Like his teacher, Enigma, Edmund is someone who finds it difficult to turn away from people preying upon others. Unlike Enigma, who would be more subtle, Edmund is more likely to enter fly off the handle and dive directly into the fray. Fortunately for everyone involved,...
Intimidating Presence
Yet another attempt to turn commissioned art into custom magic cards. I remember being very proud of this design, taking inspiration from Blink of an Eye in the Dominaria set: Though that seems laughable now. Then again, it is also likely the most solid design I...
