Cloud Djinn

Cloud Djinn was released in 1997 as part of the Weatherlight set, the third and final expansion of the Mirage block in the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. This set was notable for its heavy emphasis on narrative storytelling, tying the card mechanics closely to the overarching plot of the Weatherlight Saga, which followed a crew of adventurers exploring various planes. The card was designed to support the blue color identity's focus on flying creatures and air-based utility, reflecting the high-altitude setting of the game's atmospheric lore.

The artwork for Cloud Djinn was illustrated by Rebecca Guay, a prolific artist in the early years of the game. Guay was recognized for her distinct, ethereal, and painterly style, which diverged from the more aggressive, comic-book aesthetic prevalent in many other sets of that era. Her contribution was well-regarded by collectors for bringing a sense of elegance and mysticism to the creature design, helping to cement the visual identity of blue-aligned flying units during the late 1990s.
