What it does
Anax's power is equal to your devotion to red. (Each red mana in the mana costs of permanents you control counts toward your devotion to red.)
Whenever Anax or another nontoken creature you control dies, create a 1/1 red Satyr creature token with "This token can't block." If the creature had power 4 or greater, create two of those tokens instead.

Where it came from
Anax, Hardened in the Forge was introduced in the 2020 Magic: The Gathering set Theros Beyond Death. This set served as a return to the Greek mythology-inspired plane of Theros, focusing on themes of the underworld, heroism, and the divine. The card depicts Anax, a legendary leader of the Akroan people, known for his devotion to the god Purphoros and his role as a champion of his city-state's martial spirit.
The artwork for the card was created by illustrator Johannes Voss, who sought to capture the character's relentless drive and connection to the forge. The design leans into the red color identity of the game, emphasizing aggressive, snowballing gameplay mechanics that reflect Anax's resilience in battle. Upon its release, the card was well-received by players for its impact on aggressive deck strategies, particularly in the Standard format of the time, where his ability to generate tokens upon death made him a challenging presence for opponents.
