Let’s Talk about Ixalan

Reading Time: 9 minutes
Inspired by the real world’s Age of Discovery & Piracy, and a storyline reminiscent of the tale of El Dorado, Ixalan is the first time Magic: the Gathering has an uneven colour distribution of factions within its lore.
MaRo claimed that Ixalan only had four factions, but we seem to have overlooked one very important one: the humans of the Sun Empire... I'd argue that the dinosaurs are a barely tamed friendly faction that aligns with the land itself. 
Brave the Unknown! Ixalan.
Stake your claim! Rivals of Ixalan.
Spitfire Bastion, on the Stormwreck Sea (Brazen Coalition)
Adanto, the First Fort, on the Queen’s Bay (Legion of Dusk)
Conqueror’s Foothold, on the Queen’s Bay (Legion of Dusk)

Plane Shift

Dungeons & Dragons and Magic: The Gathering are two different games, but that doesn’t mean their Multiverses can’t meet.

Plane Shift

Four mighty peoples face off in a desperate search for a legendary city of gold, hidden deep in the heart of Ixalan. Will you join the vampires of the Legion of Dusk in their march of conquest? Will you stand with the folk of the Sun Empire—and the dinosaurs that serve them—in defending their lands and heritage? Will you join the cunning merfolk of the River Heralds to trick and misdirect the invaders within the great forests? Or will you sail the Stormwreck Sea with the pirates of the Brazen Coalition, seeking plunder and power?

Let author James Wyatt be your guide to the lost cities, dense forests, high seas, and ancient ruins of this world, as you bring Ixalan to life at your D&D gaming table.
