She has low health, low mana gains with a balanced spread, and very high deck limits across all card types.

Her abilities have a graveyard theme, including discarding her own and her opponent's cards to the graveyard, and returning creatures from her graveyard to play. She can also create activated gems which damage the opponent's creatures.

Liliana, Defiant Necromancer, sometimes called L1, is the first of many playable Planeswalkers in MtGPQ which embody Liliana Vess at different points in her life.

Story

Beautiful, cunning, and ambitious to a fault, Liliana is quietly becoming one of the Multiverse's most magnetic dangers. She wields the blackest of black magic: necromancy. Her spells reanimate the dead and corrupt the living.
Liliana's dark charisma is undeniable. She's agelessly striking and sharp as the edge of a razor. Facing the limits of her human lifespan and not content to accept her lot, she made a pact with demon lords to forever remain at the height of her health and power.
One of the demons tasked Liliana with obtaining a powerful artifact for him known as the Chain Veil. Once the object was in her possession, she felt its power instantly. She refused to give it up, and used it to kill the demon, starting her on a path to destroy the remaining demons to whom she is beholden.
Liliana's ambition has led her to interact with beings from all over the universe. But ultimately, Liliana’s greatest love and first priority is herself. She’s convinced that everyone else is in it for themselves, too. She just thinks that she's better at playing the game than everyone else—and maybe she is...
