Where it came from
Alhammarret, High Arbiter was released as part of the Magic Origins expansion in 2015, specifically featuring as a promotional card. The set served as a narrative bridge exploring the origin stories of five iconic Planeswalkers, with Alhammarret appearing as the telepathic sphinx who acted as a mentor and eventual antagonist to Jace Beleren during his youth on the plane of Vryn.
The card illustration was commissioned to Richard Wright, a veteran artist known for his atmospheric and character-focused contributions to the game. Wright’s design emphasizes the sphinx’s imposing, scholarly presence and his connection to the Vryn mages, utilizing a palette and posture that reflect his role as an arbiter of knowledge. Upon release, the card was received as a flavorful top-end creature for Commander and casual play formats, praised for its ability to dictate the flow of a game through its unique peek-and-tax effect.
