Provenance

Where it came from

Fan Bearer was released in 2017 as part of the Amonkhet set for Magic: The Gathering. The card was designed to reflect the Egyptian-inspired setting of the plane of Amonkhet, where citizens known as initiates competed in grueling trials under the watchful eye of the god-pharaoh. Mechanically, the card was crafted to represent the influence exerted by the high-ranking members of the society who maintained order within the city of Naktamun.

The card features illustration by Joseph Meehan, who emphasized the stylized, gold-adorned aesthetic typical of the set's aesthetic direction. The design choice highlights the intersection of ritualistic servitude and martial prowess, fitting the set's theme of a civilization built entirely around the preparation for a singular, cataclysmic event. It was received by players as a functional utility creature, noted for its ability to tap down opposing threats in a limited environment.
