Master Transmuter (2026)

Finally found the time to do another animated MtG card. This one was suggested to me over a year ago on Bluesky. It was quite the challenge, because the layer effects gave me trouble in the 3D version, but I like how it turned out. :)

I'd be happy to remind you about them, Sarah :)

The MC has one nephew and up to three nieces through Sonya and Eulen.

Nadren, the nephew, is Sonya's son by Arjun. He is named after the MC's grandmother, Nadia. If the f!MC is named Nadra, then he is also named after her. He will be born early into arc two. He is Sonya's only child.

Alara, Flora, and Aimee are Eulen's daughters. Their mother is indeed his (future) wife, Ai. Alara is the firstborn and is named after Alaric. Flora and Aimee are twins. If the m!MC is named Florian, then he is Flora's namesake. Aimee is named after Ai. Alara is gauraunteed to be born, but Flora and Aimee, depending on the events of that take place in the game, can either be born or not born. Eulen's lack of sons will become a concern for Alaric and Eulia as the game continues.

so ... yeah , things this year did not work out so well to get near as much in gala as last year . that would be pretty hard show to follow for anyone ! but more than that , just get really busy this year - good kind of busy , but still busy enough that draw have to fall by wayside .

still , look at these lovely ladies ! alara did not exist as character for gala last year , while safya was support character to dhajan's mini story . this year hope to put highlight on these two as couple , but again , time did just not work out very well .

alara is ex-brotherhood assassin , with so many unfortunate pieces of history that just stack onto each other - just so happen to fall under sign of serpent , so maybe not much surprise there . escape from brotherhood leave alara with brain injury , not to mention conflicted feelings about trauma . since injury , alara can be meek and hesitant , and really try not to think too much about things like stars , gods , and destinies .

safya is passionate mycologist and apothecary who live in anvil with brother ex-crusader dhajan , and mother baomi . though act part of optimist , safya know dangers that lurk , and work - sometimes by malicious compliance or false incompetence - to protect loved ones . safya is follower of dibella , and believe that curiosity is one of greatest virtues - there is beautiful side to everything in this world , and curiosity is means to discover .

Bromley watches @captainfiretoad and Flick jump into the water and swim for the shore. He whistles for Greywind to fly towards the shore and begin harassing the skaaben, then jumps in the water and follows after Pelt to flee the sinking ship.

Shregresha and her war band unload from their cramped rowboat, having paddled to the shore quicker than the pirates by brute force, as they don't know proper technique for rowing.

"Destroy the undead! We've done this before, the flesh warped horrors of Grixis fell to our blades, and these lightning-charged monstrosities will be no different! Tol Angata!" Shregresha shouted, charging into the fray, bone sword raised high.
