Magic: The Gathering – 6 White Planeswalkers and Their Stories


Red, Blue, Green, White and Black - these are the five coloured manas in Magic: The Gathering. The colour white is symbolic of fairness and does not have some of the powerful individual cards of other colours. With a white deck there are fewer options for a player to draw additional cards, create extra mana or play cards for free, all of which are things that may be considered “cheating”.

 

White does not have as many Planeswalker cards as some of the other colours in the game. There are currently only 11 in active play, however, they do each offer their own unique ability.

 

Let’s take a look at just some of the white Planeswalkers to consider when building a deck.

 

Elspeth Tirel  

As a brave knight, Elspeth Tirel has an incredibly strong sense of duty and a mastery of powerful radiant magic. Her plane was invaded when she was a child by the Phyrexians. She was taken captive, but she escaped and since then has been searching for a new home.

 

She simply wants to find peace, but often finds trouble because when she is presented with an opportunity, she believes that she has a moral responsibility to save the day. It is fair to say that Elspeth has actually been to hell and back and yet still she emerges from every conflict as a greater hero than ever before.

 

Gideon Jura

 

Gideon Jura is a powerful warrior-mage, He has the ability to make himself invulnerable. He is a fiercely loyal character, who is also unyielding, charismatic and just. Also, he will never hesitate to enter combat in order to defend the innocent.

 

Ajani Goldmane

 

Ajani is a leonin warrior. He assists his allies with protective powers and potent healing. He is known all over the Multiverse as a noble hero and a compassionate friend. Ajani has devoted himself to the protection of the weak and to fighting against those who seek to oppress others. As a member of the Gatewatch, Ajani Goldmane often gives mentorship to his fellow Planeswalkers. He helps them to master their gifts and grow into the best versions of themselves.

 

The Wanderer - Legendary white planeswalker

The Wanderer

 

The Wanderer is a cypher and a traveling swordswoman with incredible skills. Her identity and her motives are surrounded by mystery. She hides her features underneath a wide-brimmed hat, and she appears without warning to help in a battle or to defend the innocent. Then, she disappears just as quickly without any explanation. There are only a select few individuals who are aware of the truth: that the Wanderer is the lost empress of Kamigawa. She is looking for a way that she can finally return home for good.


 

Basri Ket

 

For the majority of his life, Basri Ket was completely devoted to Oketra, the god of loyalty and solidarity. When Oketra was killed in the Hour of Devastation, Basri Ket’s world was shattered. Rather than allow this to break him, he picked up one of her massive arrows, holding it as a spear and vowed that he would champion her ideals across the entire Multiverse.

Serra

 

Serra is a human Planeswalker from the distant past. She was a powerful healer and a benevolent one. Instrumental in creating an artificial plane that became known as Serra's Realm, she and her followers were able to live in peace defended by angels. Whilst Serra and her realm have been long gone, her legacy to others and her teachings have lived on as a beacon of hope throughout the Multiverse.
