Where it came from
Kodama of the Center Tree was released in 2005 as part of the Betrayers of Kamigawa expansion for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. The set explored the mythic, folklore-inspired world of Kamigawa, drawing heavily on Japanese Shinto and forest spirits. As a legendary spirit, the card reflects the set's central focus on the interconnectedness of nature and the celestial realm.
The card’s art was illustrated by Todd Lockwood, a prominent fantasy artist known for his work in the Dungeons & Dragons and Magic: The Gathering universes. Lockwood’s design sought to evoke the ancient, arboreal majesty of a forest guardian, utilizing organic, twisting forms to convey the spirit's status as the core of the Kamigawa forests. Upon its release, it was noted by players for its synergy-heavy mechanics, which rewarded players for maintaining a wide presence of other spirit creatures on the battlefield.
