Progression Rewards

“Wise travelers take advantage of the wind that always blows in its wake.”

Beyond the dangers presented by the now eclipsed plane itself, unknown creatures emerge unrelated to light or shadow. Goblins, elementals, giants—nothing is as dangerous as the incarnations. Materializations of concepts that threaten everyone and can appear as fast as they vanish. Fight against the incarnations and demonstrate your power with the help of one of Lorwyn or Shadowmoor's supports.

Special Rules

Each encounter features a different enemy, and all of them play in a different style. At the start of the game, a random event support will appear to assist the player.
