Fiercely loyal, unyielding, just, and charismatic,
Gideon Jura (known as “Kytheon Iora" on his home
plane of Theros) doesn’t hesitate to enter combat
to defend the innocent. A powerful warrior-mage
with the ability to make himself invulnerable, he
wields a four-bladed surral and hieromancy magic
against his foes. A man of the people, he takes
pride in leading his comrades towards the
common good.
Though he is now one of the foremost warriors in
the Multiverse, Gideon came from humble
beginnings, leading a gang of street kids struggling
to make a living. Imprisoned by the local guards,
he honed his leadership, self-discipline, weapon
use, and hieromancy under the watchful eye of the
prison warden Hixus. His newfound strength was
put to the test while defending his city. But when
he tried to overstep his abilities, he unintentionally
doomed the rest of his soldiers. The impact of his
failure to protect his own comrades ignited his
Planeswalker spark, and he found himself on a
new plane, able to begin atoning for his past by
dedicating himself to protecting the denizens of
the Multiverse from planar threats. His quest has
lead to the planes of Alara, Ravnica, and Zendikar,
where he’s encountered powerful Planeswalker
allies including the telepath Jace and the
pyromancer Chandra, as well as strange,
otherworldly foes...
