What it does
Each player loses half their life, then discards half the cards in their hand, then sacrifices half the permanents they control of their choice. Round down each time.
The darkest corners of the Detention Bog hide natural laboratories that quietly spawn deadly infections.

Where it came from
Pox Plague was released as part of the Strixhaven: School of Mages expansion for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Within the set's narrative framework, it represents the dark, forbidden magical practices studied at the Witherbloom College, which focuses on the essence of life and death. The card serves as a mechanical reflection of the college's core philosophy regarding the cycle of decay and replenishment.
The art for this card was created to emphasize the grim aesthetic of Witherbloom's curriculum. Designers focused on themes of necrotic energy and the transmutation of biological matter, utilizing a color palette and visual motifs intended to distinguish the card from the more academic or radiant styles found in other colleges of the university. Upon its release, it became a recognized tool for players looking to manipulate board states through attrition-based strategies.
