#erahvas

You and @corvus-von-wolff both asked for Sultai, so here goes!

His name is Erahvas, and he’s a panther warrior-turned-Rakshasa from New Urborg on Dominaria. I haven’t worked out much of his character and story, but I know I want him to use some form of necromancy or necromancy-adjacent magic.

Random fact 1: he’s always well dressed and likes to present himself in a way that portrays power and luxury

Random fact 2: his magic is a convenience - he’s very strong and quick, so he can still kick your ass in a fair, hand-to-hand fight

Ok so I’m gonna start this off with the reason I made a cat fanwalker - I was inspired by this post here, and wanted dumb kitty behaviors.

That said, Erahvas enjoys martial arts, fashion, reading, and birdwatching. He does not care for water. He doesn’t necessarily collect anything, but he does like shiny things.

Becoming a demon wasn’t specifically part of the plan. What Erahvas sought was power to defeat the Cabal on his home plane of Dominaria. After visiting Tarkir a couple times though, he decided to make deals with the rakshasa, thinking he could take their power and planeswalk away, not being bound to the plane and their terms.

You and @sarkhan-the-flaming both asked this!

Erahvas’s first planeswalk was to Tarkir. While there, he was tempted with deals and promises of power by the Rakshasa, as he was seeking to gain strength in order to destroy Cabal on his home plane of Dominaria.

Uncertain at first if he wanted to accept, he walked to other planes in search of other options, but something in the back of his head kept nagging him to go back to Tarkir.
