Yesterday, there was a lot of talk about a spoiled thumbnail of today's wallpaper offering. Specifically, folks were interested in the Demonic Tutor art. It was fairly obvious that the human in front of the demon was Liliana Vess, Planeswalker but discussion was rather heated as it was pointed out that the appearance was that demon was restraining her . . a planeswalker !

Anywho, I don't follow the story-lines much as I have little to no 'disposable income' but suggest this . . .

Liliana is shown in the art just moment before becomming a full-fledged planeswalker. The demon is inscribing the magical 'demon marks' on her which is visible only when she is 'casting' magic.

Here is a quick clip from the Agents of Artifice novel by Ari Marmell.

" Beneath her breath, her lips barely moving, she began to utter a low, sonorous chant. Across her neck rose an abstract pattern of tattoos that suggested even more elaborate designs farther down her back, as though burned across her skin from the inside out."

Catch you on the flip side my droogies.
