What it does
Flying
Hellbent — Whenever this creature deals combat damage to a player, if you have no cards in hand, that player discards a card at random.
No tongue to chant, yet the forsaken hymn still emanates from its body.

Where it came from
Headless Specter was released in 2019 as part of the Modern Horizons set, a unique expansion for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game designed specifically for the Modern format. Unlike traditional sets tied to the game's ongoing storyline, Modern Horizons was created to introduce new cards directly into the Modern ecosystem, often featuring mechanics and creature types that had been absent or underrepresented for years.
The card features artwork by artist Zezhou Chen, who captures the spectral, eerie aesthetic typical of the Specter creature type. As a common-rarity card, it was designed to provide functional support for limited play environments like Draft and Sealed, while simultaneously offering a nod to the classic gothic horror themes that have been a cornerstone of the game's visual identity since its inception.
