We have several new Magic the Gathering wallpapers to pimp up your desktop background or mobile device. These image spoilers are all part of the next MTG set, code-named 'Action'. The final set name will be 'New Phyrexia' (very likely), or 'Mirrodin Pure' (not likely).

"There is always a point in a father's life when he sees his child so far down a path that the potential to take another road is no longer a possibility. I wonder when my creator first looked at me with jubilation and regret, seeing me unable to become anything more than what I was. I think about that now, because I feel that way when I look upon my world." – Karn

Sheoldred, Whispering One Wallpaper

Sheoldred's request and thinly veiled threats echoed like thunder in my ears, even though she spoke in whispers and I had to lean in closer than was comfortable to hear these dreaded words. I knew this day would come – The Whispering One's knowledge of the goings-on inside and outside her domain is vast. I was foolish to believe I could escape her notice for long. . .


Chancellor of the Dross Wallpaper

Jedrin: I write to you from a tree hollow somewhere in the Tangle. I'm hungry and tired, but I must write this and pray (to what gods, I wonder?) that you receive this. I'll cut to the chase: Rey-Goor is near death. The Phyrexians... they... But I should start from the beginning. All of Rey-Goor has been taut like a wire ready to snap, ever since the Gloom Coven disappeared. I know you must have felt it; perhaps that's why you volunteered for the duties that took you away from me. Backbiting and infighting reached fevered proportions not long after you left. Something had to give . . .

Caged Sun Wallpaper

From the journal of Jian, Sylvok healer: I've seen so much pain, but that Auriok's still haunts me most. I don't even know his name. He was just one of many who arrived all at once - just a small part of a constant wave of dead and dying. When I reached his bedside, his breathing was shallow, his eyes wide and glassy, head tilted away from me. He had no apparent wounds, but in these days of Phyrexian poisons, I knew that meant little. "How are you feeling?" I asked. He just continued staring. I gently touched his shoulder. His face jerked towards me as he sat up, his body spasming in panic... He probably would have jumped to his feet and ran had he the strength . . .
