Where it came from
Cult of the Waxing Moon was released in 2016 as part of the Shadows over Innistrad set for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. The set returned players to the gothic horror-themed plane of Innistrad, focusing on themes of madness and transformation as the world descended into chaos due to the influence of the Eldrazi titan Emrakul. This specific card represents the human cultists who worshipped the moon, mirroring the set's broader narrative of corrupted faith and occult ritual.
The artwork was created by Anastasia Ovchinnikova, who captured the eerie, nocturnal atmosphere central to the Innistrad aesthetic. Her design emphasizes the visceral nature of the transformation magic inherent to the werewolves and cultists of the region. Upon its release, the card was noted for its mechanical synergy with the set's double-faced cards, which was a defining design hallmark of the Shadows over Innistrad block.
