Where it came from
Sorin Markov first appeared in the 2009 Magic: The Gathering set Zendikar, introducing the first black-aligned Planeswalker card to the game. Designed as a powerful, ancient vampire lord, the character was conceived to bring a gothic, predatory aesthetic to the high-adventure, exploration-themed world of Zendikar. His debut card, illustrated by Michael Komarck, depicts him in his signature dark armor, signaling his role as a key player in the lore of the Multiverse.
The card was designed by the Wizards of the Coast development team to push the boundaries of what a Planeswalker could do, notably featuring an ultimate ability that allows a player to set an opponent's life total to ten. Upon its release, it became a significant presence in the Standard competitive scene, appreciated by players for its ability to dominate games and its strong thematic resonance as the progenitor of the vampire race on the plane.
