<blockquote>''The Planeswalker Venser sacrificed himself to free Karn’s mind and body, but Mirrodin, a plane Karn himself had created, was lost. Grief-stricken by the fate of his world and the death of his friend, Karn travels the Multiverse, retracing his steps to ensure the Phyrexian contagion has not taken hold elsewhere. Karn is constantly searching for more weapons he can deploy against the Phyrexians—which has brought him back once again to [[Dominaria]].''</blockquote:>>[[Karn, Reflective Silver#Story|Karn, Reflective Silver's Story]] ==Starting Deck=={{Deck List| Howling Golem| Bloodtallow Candle| Navigator's Compass| Jousting Lance| Auramancer| Artificer's Epiphany| Titan's Strength| Timberpack Wolf| Weight of the Underworld| Gilded Lotus}}
