Where it came from
Alesha, Who Smiles at Death was released in 2015 as part of the Fate Reforged expansion for Magic: The Gathering. The set focused on the history of the plane of Tarkir, exploring the timeline where the dragonlord dragons survived rather than being eradicated. The character of Alesha was significant for being one of the first openly transgender characters in the game's lore, depicted as a khan of the Mardu Horde who earned her name by slaying a dragon in her first battle.
The card was illustrated by Anastasia Ovchinnikova, who rendered Alesha in a dynamic, battle-ready stance that emphasizes the character's leadership and martial prowess within the Mardu culture. The design choice to depict her in the midst of a charge reflects the aggressive, combat-oriented identity of the Mardu faction. Upon release, the card was well-received by players for both its narrative representation and its unique mechanics, which allow for the recursion of smaller creatures from the graveyard to the battlefield.
