What it does
Flying
Little dreamt could seem so cruel As waiting for the wings outspread, The jagged teeth, the burning eyes, And dagger-claws that clench to nerves.

Where it came from
Azure Drake, numbered 73 in the Fifth Edition set of Magic: The Gathering, represents a classic era of the trading card game's design. Released in 1997, Fifth Edition served as a comprehensive core set that gathered cards from the game's earliest expansions to standardize the pool for tournament play. The card features the distinct, traditional fantasy aesthetic common to the 1990s, characterized by a straightforward creature-combat focus that defined the early metagame.
The artwork for this iteration of Azure Drake was provided by Quinton Hoover, a prolific and celebrated illustrator during the game's formative years. Hoover was known for his elegant, flowing line work and stylized approach to fantasy creatures, often imbuing his subjects with a sense of graceful movement. Within the community, these Fifth Edition printings are recognized for their nostalgic value, marking the bridge between the experimental design choices of the game's inception and the more polished mechanical structures that followed in later years.
