What it does
Flying
We encountered a valley topped with immense boulders and eerie rock formations. Suddenly one of these boulders toppled from its perch and sprouted gargantuan wings, casting a shadow of darkness and sending us fleeing in terror.

Where it came from
The Roc of Kher Ridges was introduced to the Magic: The Gathering trading card game in the 1994 Revised Edition, which served as the third core set for the hobby. The card originates from the expansion block of the same name, which was designed to refine gameplay mechanics established in the earlier Alpha and Beta sets. It was conceived as a red-aligned creature that utilizes a unique token-generating ability, requiring players to sacrifice resources to manifest its kin on the battlefield.
The illustration was rendered by artist Susan Van Camp, who contributed several pieces to the game during its early years. Her depiction of the giant bird was crafted to fit the high-fantasy aesthetic dominant in early 1990s card design, characterized by a distinct, painterly style that emphasized the creature's massive scale within the craggy landscape of Kher Ridges. Upon release, the card became a staple of early limited-format play, valued for its ability to provide a recurring presence on the board.
