Lore

Why it matters

As a rare card, Anthroplasm represents a unique mechanical approach to board presence, allowing players to strategically manipulate its size by spending mana to add counters. This versatility makes it a prized inclusion for those who enjoy fluid, adaptable creatures that can grow in power to meet the specific demands of a game.

Provenance

Where it came from

Anthroplasm was released in 1999 as part of the Urza's Legacy set for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. The set was designed to expand upon the mechanical themes introduced in Urza's Saga, focusing heavily on the artifacts and complex spellcasting associated with the game's central narrative arc involving the artificer Urza. Anthroplasm specifically reflects the set's exploration of mutable, artificial lifeforms crafted during the Phyrexian conflict.

The card features artwork by artist Donato Giancola, who was known for his mastery of oil painting and fantasy illustration. Giancola's design for Anthroplasm emphasized an amorphous, evolving entity, capturing the creature's unique ability to grow in power over time through the expenditure of mana. The piece was well-received for its atmospheric quality, fitting seamlessly into the high-fantasy aesthetic that Wizards of the Coast cultivated during this period of the game's history.
