Tibalt

Lore & Background

Tibalt is a tiefling planeswalker known for being manipulative and causing chaos. He has fought with both Chandra Nalaar and Sorin in the past. On Kaldheim, he appears disguised as Valki, God of lies, with a new dastardly scheme designed to cause chaos. He is one of two planeswalkers featured in the set alongside Kaya, the ghost assassin planeswalker who previously slew the Ghost Council of the Orzhov Syndicate on Ravnica.

In Their Own Story

The stage was set for a midnight performance, but there were no tickets required tonight. Tibalt stood atop the crumbling spire, his red hair catching the glow of the inferno below. He laughed as the flames licked at the sky, feeding off the fear radiating from the crowd gathered in the square. To him, their terror was applause.

"More!" he shouted to the shadows, summoning a hellhound that tore through the barricades. The guards scrambled, their weapons useless against his fireballs. He didn't care about winning or losing; he cared only about the spectacle. As the building collapsed behind him, he tipped an imaginary hat and vanished in a burst of smoke, leaving nothing but ash and memories.
