Where it came from
The Blight-Breath Catoblepas was released in January 2020 as part of the Theros Beyond Death expansion for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. The set draws heavy thematic inspiration from Greek mythology, reimagining the plane of Theros as a land where the boundary between the living and the underworld has begun to collapse. The creature itself is based on the mythical catoblepas, a beast from ancient lore said to possess a lethal gaze or toxic breath.
The artwork was created by illustration veteran Greg Staples, who utilized a moody, atmospheric palette to emphasize the creature's connection to the encroaching darkness of the underworld. The design focuses on the physical grotesque of the beast, fitting within the set’s broader aesthetic of 'nyx-touched' horrors and mythological monsters. Upon release, the card was widely utilized in the Limited format due to its utility as a removal spell, reflecting the set's emphasis on creature-based combat and graveyard synergies.
