Lorewalkers

The crisis that remade planeswalking

Dominaria's accumulated wounds were pulling time, space and neighbouring planes apart. Closing them saved the Multiverse, but the repair demanded sparks, lives and a permanent rewriting of what a planeswalker could be.

Ravnica · Nicol Bolas · The Gatewatch

Nicol Bolas turned Ravnica into a locked arena, lured planeswalkers into it and began harvesting their sparks. His design failed when a divided city and an equally divided cast of heroes found enough common purpose to fight back.

New Phyrexia · A war on every world

Elesh Norn used Realmbreaker to invade the Multiverse at once. The defence succeeded only by turning the invasion tree into a road for Zhalfir, cutting New Phyrexia away and accepting changes that ended the old order of planar travel.

Two brothers turned discovery into dominion—and taught Phyrexia how to enter Dominaria.

A feud between Urza and Mishra turns recovered Thran power into a continent-spanning arms race. The Sylex ends their war at Argoth, ignites Urza’s spark and begins Dominaria’s long struggle against Phyrexia.

Urza prepared a perfect weapon. Dominaria survived because imperfect people chose one another.

Yawgmoth turns Rath into the bridgehead for Phyrexia’s invasion of Dominaria. The Weatherlight crew and the Coalition complete Urza’s scattered Legacy, destroy Yawgmoth and leave Karn carrying both victory and a newly awakened spark.

A dying plane forced four planeswalkers to turn shared mistakes into a lasting oath.

Ulamog and Kozilek break free on Zendikar. Gideon, Jace, Nissa and Chandra answer by forming the Gatewatch, then risk the plane itself to draw both Eldrazi titans fully into reality and destroy them.

A mystery beneath the silver moon became Nahiri’s revenge—and Emrakul’s chosen prison.

Jace and Tamiyo trace Innistrad’s spreading madness to Nahiri’s revenge: Emrakul is coming. After Avacyn falls, the defenders bind the Eldrazi titan inside the moon—on terms Emrakul appears to choose herself.

The Gatewatch went looking for Bolas’s weakness and discovered a world engineered as his weapon.

The Gatewatch attacks Nicol Bolas on Amonkhet and discovers that Naktamun’s trials manufacture his Eternal army. Bolas destroys the city’s promised order, defeats the planeswalkers individually and exposes how fragile their alliance remains.

Without his memory, Jace found a truer self—and a friendship Bolas intended to weaponise.

Trapped on Ixalan without his memories, Jace joins Vraska’s pirate crew in the race for Orazca. Their unexpected trust survives his recovered past and becomes the secret with which they intend to undermine Nicol Bolas.

Sarkhan went home to find dragons, crossed twelve centuries and returned to a present that had never made him.

Sarkhan travels twelve centuries into Tarkir’s past and saves Ugin from Nicol Bolas. Dragons survive, the khans fall and a rewritten present gives Sarkhan everything he wanted—except a history in which he was born.

A festival of invention became a confiscation machine, and a family reunion grew into a fight over who owns the future.

Chandra returns to Kaladesh, reunites with Pia and joins a makers’ revolt against Tezzeret’s Consulate. Ghirapur wins its freedom, but Tezzeret escapes with Rashmi’s transporter transformed into Nicol Bolas’s Planar Bridge.

A ninja’s ten-year search brought the missing emperor home—and uncovered Phyrexia’s first transformed planeswalker.

Kaito’s search for Kamigawa’s missing emperor exposes Tezzeret and Jin-Gitaxias experimenting on kami. The Wanderer returns but cannot remain, while Tamiyo’s capture proves Phyrexia can compleat a planeswalker without extinguishing her spark.

A plane that remembered one Phyrexian war discovered that memory alone could not identify the next one.

Sheoldred’s sleeper agents turn Dominaria’s history and alliances against it. A new Coalition wins the visible battle, but compleated Ajani kills Jaya, destroys the Sylex and delivers Karn to New Phyrexia.

Ten planeswalkers carried one weapon into a world designed to make every strength serve the enemy.

A strike team enters New Phyrexia to destroy Realmbreaker before it reaches other planes. Infection shatters the mission, and Elspeth takes the Sylex away rather than let its blast destroy the connected Multiverse.

The invasion ended, but victory changed who could cross the Multiverse and how the planes touched.

New Phyrexia’s defeat leaves survivors confronting compleation, lost sparks and damaged homes. As Omenpaths begin carrying ordinary people between worlds, the Multiverse enters an age no longer organised exclusively around planeswalkers.

A wounded fairy-tale realm must choose between patient repair, intoxicating power and the courage of an untested hero.
