What it does
Flying
The only sound was the gentle clicking of the Faeries' wings. Then those intruders who were still standing turned and fled. One thing was certain: they didn't think the Scryb were very funny anymore.

Where it came from
Scryb Sprites first appeared in the Alpha edition of Magic: The Gathering in 1993, designed by Richard Garfield as part of the game's foundational set. The card represents a low-cost, flying green creature, serving as a staple of the color's early mechanical identity. It was later included in the 1996 Rivals Quick Start Set, a simplified product intended to introduce new players to the game’s rules by providing pre-constructed decks that highlighted basic creature combat and mana mechanics.
The original illustration for the card was created by artist Quinton Hoover, whose distinct, painterly style became synonymous with the game's early aesthetic. Hoover sought to capture the ethereal and mischievous nature of the woodland sprite, utilizing vibrant colors and fluid lines that grounded the character within the game's fantasy setting. The card remains a well-regarded piece of Magic history, often cited for its simplicity and the iconic contribution of Hoover to the game's visual legacy.
