List of Species in Magic: The Gathering

List Of Species In Magic: The Gathering

Magic: the Gathering is a collectible card game set in a richly detailed fictional world. The Multiverse of Dominia in which it takes place is host to a vast number of individual universes known as "planes," from the varied classical environments of Dominaria to the gleaming metal landscapes of Mirrodin to the bustling, endless metropolis of Ravnica. A wide variety of different races and species are spread throughout the planes, some indigenous to single worlds and others found almost anywhere. The mechanics of the game are divided between five colors representing different abilities and strategies. These "colors of magic" are also reflected in the storyline, dictating the natures, outlooks and capabilities of entire species. Whilst the game accommodates several hundred "creature types," including mundane classifications such as "beast" and "fish," this list comprises only the most important and/or distinctive races.

Famous quotes containing the words list of, list, species and/or gathering:

    Every morning I woke in dread, waiting for the day nurse to go on her rounds and announce from the list of names in her hand whether or not I was for shock treatment, the new and fashionable means of quieting people and of making them realize that orders are to be obeyed and floors are to be polished without anyone protesting and faces are to be made to be fixed into smiles and weeping is a crime.
    Janet Frame (b. 1924)

    Weigh what loss your honor may sustain
    If with too credent ear you list his songs,
    Or lose your heart, or your chaste treasure open
    To his unmastered importunity.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    There are acacias, a graceful species amusingly devitalized by sentimentality, this kind drooping its leaves with the grace of a young widow bowed in controllable grief, this one obscuring them with a smooth silver as of placid tears. They please, like the minor French novelists of the eighteenth century, by suggesting a universe in which nothing cuts deep.
    Rebecca West (1892–1983)

    This wild night, gathering the washing as if it were flowers
    animal vines twisting over the line and
    slapping my face lightly, soundless merriment
    in the gesticulations of shirtsleeves ...
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
