Lore
Edit
The stories of Magic take place in The Multiverse - an infinite realm that contains untold numbers of fantastical worlds. These worlds are filled with heroic legends and whispered secrets. Traveling throughout the Multiverse are Planeswalkers – powerful mages with the rare ability to leave the world of their birth. The adventures, plots, and machinations of these Planeswalkers forever alter the fates of those they encounter. The monsters and civilizations of the Multiverse also have their own histories and legends. Each plane is rich in mystery and intrigue, strife and war, all with epic stories just waiting for your discovery.[1]
There is a variety of books, comics, novels and eBooks mostly published by Wizards of the Coast revolving around the characters and planes in Magic's multiverse.
With "Uncharted Realms" members of Magic's creative team regularly publish articles and short stories about the backstory of each block.[2]
