Where it came from
Despoiler of Souls was released as part of the Magic Origins expansion in 2015, a set designed to chronicle the origin stories of five core Planeswalker characters. The card reflects the set's thematic focus on the dark, transformative paths some characters followed before achieving their eventual power, specifically aligning with the necromantic aesthetics prevalent in the black mana color identity.
The artwork was commissioned from Greg Staples, a long-time contributor to the Magic: The Gathering franchise. Staples utilized his characteristic moody, expressive style to capture the essence of a creature fueled by the graveyard, emphasizing a sense of restless, decaying energy. Upon its release, the card was notable for its recursive ability, which allowed it to return from the graveyard to the battlefield, a mechanic that saw moderate experimentation in competitive formats of the era.
