Monastery Swiftspear


Pizza delivery people HATE this place. In a kingdom of floating mobile-homes where they haven't invented outboard engines or speedboats, getting from place to place isn't quick. Unless you've mastered the art of Yu-Zum, the supersonic wiggling of the toes or feet that can propell one above the surface of the water at incredible velocity. If this image weren't cropped, you'd see that she has half a foot in the ocean, blurred with speed, and a blast of water behind her. When she is not fighting for the glory of the Jeskai, Monastery Swiftspear enjoys found-item sculpture, and tattooing sea monsters. (Not tattoos of sea monsters. Actually putting tattoos on sea monsters. It's a bit of an extreme art.)

 For Magic the Gathering. Copyright Wizards of the Coast. Art directed by Jeremy Jarvis.

 Special thanks to the Jeskai consulate for getting me out of trouble about the... thing with the thing. And her other... things. Saved my sushi there!
