Provenance

Where it came from

The Pest token was released in 2021 as part of the Secrets of Strixhaven Commander set, a collection of supplemental decks designed for the Magic: The Gathering format centered on the Strixhaven School of Mages. These tokens were created to represent temporary creatures generated by various spells and abilities within the set, specifically those associated with the Witherbloom college, which focuses on the intersection of life and death magic.

Artist Nino Vecia designed this iteration of the Pest, focusing on a biological, unsettling aesthetic that aligns with the organic and parasitic themes of the Witherbloom faction. The creature is depicted as a small, twitchy, multi-legged entity that reflects the cycle of decay and growth essential to the school's identity. Upon release, the artwork was well-received by players for successfully capturing the eerie, creature-feature vibe intended for the set's graveyard-centric gameplay.
