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.
