Where it came from
Hivis of the Scale was released in 1996 as part of the Mirage expansion for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Developed by Wizards of the Coast, this set was notable for being the first to omit the use of a base set, instead featuring entirely new mechanics and a thematic focus on the desert-inspired world of Jamuraa. The card was designed to reflect the expansion's emphasis on flavor and tribal synergies, specifically highlighting the Viashino race, which were lizard-like humanoids native to the arid regions of the lore.
The artwork for Hivis of the Scale was created by illustrator Randy Asplund-Faith. His work for the Mirage set focused on atmospheric and creature-heavy compositions that defined the aesthetic identity of the expansion. As a rare card, it was received as a niche utility piece for players interested in dragon-themed decks, though it remains a recognizable relic of the mid-90s era of card design when creature types were gaining more mechanical significance within the game's evolving ruleset.
