Market Inspection
Professors at the Theorem Magistrum are often required to take on additional duties in service to Magistrum City, as befitting their talents and skills. For Enigma, this manifests most often in detective work and information gathering, as that is where he is most inclined. While Volpes...
Shoreside Snuggles

Custom MTG Cards (Savor the Moment, Azure Lightning, & Enigma on the Open Road)
Despite my lack of uploads, I do still have a number of Custom MTG Card designs I've been keeping under my hat. For the most part, the reason is simply that I have been lazy in uploaded them, but that ends today. You may also notice...
