Where it came from
Dark Dabbling was released in 2015 as part of the Magic Origins set, which served as a narrative retrospective focusing on the backstories and 'spark' moments of five iconic Planeswalkers. The card fits into the set's thematic goal of showcasing the origins of characters like Liliana Vess, whose early life involved experimenting with dark magic to heal her brother, a tragedy that eventually led to her life of necromancy.
The card's artwork was illustrated by David Palumbo. His approach captures the somber, gothic atmosphere inherent to the black-aligned cards of the set, emphasizing the shadowy, illicit nature of the character's early magical studies. Upon release, the card was received as a functional, flavor-focused common that effectively communicated the tragic desperation of the character's narrative arc.
