Imagine if PoF had happened before HoT. Mainly, imagine Trahearne coming off the ship, to find the Commanders body after the departing. Imagine him dropping to his knees with an earth shattering keen as he finds them, twisted beyond recognition, burned to a lump, and swears to the shattered armour that he will show that impostor of a God what real fury looks like.

Imagine his reaction when the Commanders chest stretches with breath, as they gasp and choke as they come to. As he cradles them as they ask about Aurene and stagger to their feet, him holding them up as they did for him in Orr

Damnit Sole!

Kasmeer teleports them to the smouldering and smoke covered pillar of rock and the first thing that greets Trahearne is the colour of dark grey smoke.

The second thing to greet him is the smell.

Thick and choking.

Tear summoning and gag inducing.

Stomach turning and hope plummeting.

The smell of spilt and burnt blood, of overcooked flesh and meat, of melted metal at too high of a heat, of hair caught on fire.

He weezes as he steps away from the teleportation pool and the sound of beating sap drowns out Rytlock’s whine, drowns out Kasmeer’s gagging, drowns out Canach’s swearing, drowns out Vlast’s cry as the Dragon lands.

And for a second, the smoke clears.

The last thing to greet Trahearne is the Commander.

Near ripped in two, charred black skin cracked into tiny sections, hair burnt away, splayed out over blood soaked sand and eyes open but unseeing.

He doesn’t remember screeming.

He doesn’t remember stumbling over.

He doesn’t remember his knees hitting the mixture of sand, glass and blood.

He does remember throwing out one of the few group healing spells he knows.

He does remember gently laying his hands on the Commanders’ cheeks, trying to get unseeing eyes to focus on him.

He remembers thinking “I can raise the dead.”

My next build project!

I’ve been on a building kick lately if you all couldn’t tell. I discovered Dargo only recently, and saw huge potential for an aggressive commander build. Throw in as many 0-drop artifacts in your deck and it’s realistic to assume you can turn 1 a 7/5 trampling commander! Add in some double strike enablers and this deck will be a lightning-fast threat!

I thought of building Hans because I pulled this beaut but I just can’t make it work with what I’ve got. Slogurk, on the other hand…

Now taking suggestions (budget-friendly) to build this commander! It seems so interesting but I’m struggling. Seems like a good way to facilitate combat, and add in a lot of equipment that taps to deal damage!

As I mentioned in my last post, @wizardsmagic has given me four cards from this year’s awesome Ikoria Commander decks to preview. I did the first one over on my twitter, but the second one is happening right here, right now!
Here are the rules: Ask me yes/no questions about the card through my inbox. Once there are a handful of different questions, I will answer them in a reblog to this post. This will continue until someone guesses the card, at which point I will show it off in the final repost. Good luck, have fun, play nice. 

New Galra from Season 8. Alternate Reality versions are considered new characters.

Returning characters with a clothing/appearance change, first face/voice reveal, given a personality, different age or rank.

In no particular order.
