Where it came from
Zariel, Archduke of Avernus (172s) was released as part of the Adventures in the Forgotten Realms expansion for Magic: The Gathering in 2021. This set marked the first major crossover between Wizards of the Coast's flagship card game and the Dungeons & Dragons tabletop roleplaying system. The card represents Zariel, the fallen angel turned Archdevil who rules the first layer of the Nine Hells, serving as a powerful planeswalker card that embodies the themes of infernal pacts and martial prowess central to her lore.
The artwork for this specific promotional version was crafted by Magali Villeneuve, a renowned illustrator known for her expressive character work within the game. Villeneuve aimed to capture Zariel's dual nature—the lingering essence of her celestial origins contrasted with her current demonic authority. The design was received favorably by collectors and players alike, praised for its dynamic composition and for grounding a legendary figure of D&D mythos within the distinct visual language of Magic's planeswalker frames.
