Tezzeret

MTG | Character

Something Missing?

Tezzeret is a male human planeswalker, born in Tidehollow on the shard of Esper (Alara). He was a henchman of Nicol Bolas but despised his master.

Tezzeret is a planeswalker who wields blue magic. He is 5'10" tall and has a lined, weathered face and long hair bound into ragged gray dreadlocks. Under his loose robe, much of his chest is replaced with smooth, flexible metal, and his right arm is a twisted cage of metal struts, ending in fingers like talons. When necessary, he can conceal his etherium enhancements. The fingers can be fired off and returned automatically. His brown eyes glow pink while he uses his metalshaping magic. After his reformation with a darksteel body, he has a sliver of vulnerable etherium on his back, and increased physical strength.

Tezzeret is a male human planeswalker, born in Tidehollow on the shard of Esper (Alara). He was a henchman of Nicol Bolas but despised his master.

Tezzeret is a planeswalker who wields blue magic. He is 5'10" tall and has a lined, weathered face and long hair bound into ragged gray dreadlocks. Under his loose robe, much of his chest is replaced with smooth, flexible metal, and his right arm is a twisted cage of metal struts, ending in fingers like talons. When necessary, he can conceal his etherium enhancements. The fingers can be fired off and returned automatically. His brown eyes glow pink while he uses his metalshaping magic. After his reformation with a darksteel body, he has a sliver of vulnerable etherium on his back, and increased physical strength.

His specialty is artifice: spells that forge artifacts, manipulate artifacts and technologies, and bring artifacts to life, creating huge constructs from mere scrap bits of metal. Despite this, the inventor Rashmi judged him incapable of science and invention.[8] While he had often used his magic on himself, his new Darksteel body is resistant to his usual metallurgy. He also is proficient in mental magic and the manipulation of magnetism. Like all Esperites, he has part of his body "enhanced" by the magical alloy etherium, part of an overarching planar venture to create the perfection of both body and mind. He possesses knowledge of Esper mind control magic.

Tezzeret has a very explosive temper, with frequent violent outbursts, and an unscrupulous nature. His primal driving force is a lust for power and knowledge, and he is prone to punish people who failed him in severe and often brutal ways if he needs them in the future, or kill them outright if he does not need them. He also greatly resents being controlled and often frames his misgivings as betrayals, despite his perpetual conniving and subterfuge against those above him. He has a twisted empathy for other orphans such as Estel and Nashi, though he is no less brutal for it.

Tezzeret is primarily blue-aligned, but secondary in black mana. When he planeswalks, he vanishes in a buzz saw of blue-silver sparks. From his perspective, he hears a characteristic snap. Before his body was replaced with darksteel, he had momentary queasiness while planeswalking. At other times, he has been noted to implode into the void in his chest.
