{{Infobox Ashiok}}
[[Ashiok, Wicked Manipulator]] is a Black Nightmare Planeswalker, introduced in 2024 along with the [[Wilds of Eldraine]] card set.

A mono black PW, Ashiok nevertheless retains the bonuses to Blue of the [[Ashiok, Nightmare Muse|first]] and [[Ashiok, Sculptor of Fears|second of her name]], and two of their loyalty abilities are related to the {{Ability|Exile}} zone, as were [[Ashiok, Nightmare Muse]]'s abilities

Other than the Exile and fetching cards, which abilities power up the third, their loyalty abilities are more generic than their predecessors; Wicked Manipulator's second summons tokens, albeit highly dangerous {{Ability|Berserker}} tokens with {{Ability|Deathtouch}}. Ashiok, Wicked Manipulator's third closely resembles the third of [[Kaya, Orzhov Usurper]], making the opponent lose X life and weakening their creatures by X, where X is the number of cards they have added to the Exile with their first and third.

Ashiok, Nightmare Muse is the first of a small number of playable Planeswalkers in MtGPQ which embody Ashiok at different points in their life.

:''"Ashiok travels the Multiverse in perpetual search of the perfect embodiment of fear.

What they want with it, is still unknown."''
