Where it came from
Identity Thief was released as part of the Eldritch Moon expansion for Magic: The Gathering in July 2016. The set focuses on the return of the Eldrazi titan Emrakul to the plane of Innistrad, introducing themes of body horror and transformation as the populace falls under her corrupting influence. This promo version, numbered 64s, features distinct foil stamping and was primarily distributed through Wizards of the Coast organized play events and Friday Night Magic support kits.
The card was illustrated by Johannes Voss, a long-standing contributor to the game known for his expressive, atmospheric fantasy work. Voss aimed to capture the unsettling nature of the set by depicting a faceless, shifting entity mimicking its opponent, emphasizing the 'Identity Thief' mechanic where the creature transiently adopts the power and appearance of another. The design received positive feedback for its fluid, dreamlike quality, effectively communicating the psychological and physical distortion central to the Eldritch Moon narrative.
