Where it came from
Hexbane Tortoise was released in 2022 as part of the Dominaria United expansion for Magic: The Gathering. This set marked a return to the game's foundational plane of Dominaria, designed to evoke a sense of high-fantasy nostalgia while introducing mechanics that emphasize the plane's rich, war-torn history. As a common card, it serves as a functional piece of the set's limited environment, providing a defensive presence that reflects the hardy, ancient nature of the creatures inhabiting the plane.
The artwork was commissioned from illustrator Joshua Raphael, who was tasked with visualizing a creature that embodies endurance and magical resistance. Raphael utilized a painterly style to capture the tortoise's rugged, moss-covered shell and its protective aura, aligning with the artistic direction of the set, which sought to balance the familiar aesthetics of classic fantasy with modern digital polish. The card was received by players as a straightforward, durable utility creature suited for the set's green-aligned defensive strategies.
