Where it came from
The Shimian Night Stalker was released as part of the 1995 Magic: The Gathering expansion set, Chronicles. This set was designed by Wizards of the Coast as a way to reprint popular and sought-after cards from the game's earliest expansions—specifically Arabian Nights, Antiquities, Legends, and The Dark—which had become difficult for the average player to acquire due to their limited initial print runs.
The card features artwork by Susan Van Camp, who contributed numerous illustrations to Magic: The Gathering during the mid-nineties. The design captures the eerie, shadowy essence of the Shimian creature type within the game's lore. While Chronicles is noted in history for its controversial impact on the secondary market value of original set cards, it remains a significant piece of the game's evolution in providing broader access to established mechanics and character designs.
