Lorwyn-Shadowmoor Reawakens: A Planeswalker’s Guide too Lorwyn Eclipsed
SEATTLE, WA – November 22, 2023 – The idyllic plane of Lorwyn is poised for upheaval as the dual-faced world of lorwyn-Shadowmoor prepares for a new chapter with the upcoming Magic: The gathering set, lorwyn eclipsed. Wizards of the Coast has released a comprehensive guide detailing the plane’s unique inhabitants and the looming narrative, offering players a crucial briefing before venturing into its mysteries.
Lorwyn-Shadowmoor exists as two sides of the same coin: a vibrant, fairytale-like realm and its corrupted, nightmarish counterpart. The plane’s fate is intrinsically linked to the ebb and flow between these states, influenced by powerful elemental guardians and the actions of its diverse species. The Auramancers, deeply connected to the land, wield elemental magic and command the natural world.
Beyond the Auramancers, Lorwyn is populated by a variety of species, each with distinct characteristics. The Kithkin, small but fiercely self-reliant, are known for their strong community bonds. The Merfolk, masters of the waterways, possess a complex social structure. The Loxodon, wise and deliberate, embody strength and patience. The elves, while generally welcoming, maintain a degree of separation from the Changelings.
changelings are shapeshifters originating from the crystalline cavern Velis Vel, capable of mimicking creatures and plants. Though identifiable by their opalescent and translucent skin, they are generally regarded as harbingers of good luck and valuable allies, particularly after aiding in the conflict against the phyrexians. However, a journey into Shadowmoor transforms a Changeling into a Mimic – a malicious entity that assumes the forms of loved ones to inflict devastating loss.Since oona’s downfall, Changelings remain in Lorwyn unless forcibly driven into Shadowmoor.
Lorwyn-Shadowmoor also harbors a host of other creatures, including noggles, bogles, ouphes, duergars, hags, imps, and trolls, most commonly found within the depths of Shadowmoor. the recent emergence of Eirdu and Isilu has heralded the arrival of firdoch, stone creatures who serve the plane’s elemental guardians, shaping the boundaries between Lorwyn and Shadowmoor through ritualistic wrestling.
The main story of Lorwyn eclipsed begins on December 8 and will unfold on MTGStory.com. Preorders for the set are currently available through local game stores and online retailers such as Amazon.
