@VorthosMike given Ashiok's positioning I am NOT interested in seeing AShiok as Big Bad. More Intersted in Ashiok as protagonist.

@VorthosMike WotC doesn't really do any deeper complex emotional choices right, Ashiok's could easily be radioactive for the brand.

@DreamtimeDrinne Could is key. I find it so much harder to make black-aligned characters be protagonists that work. So rare to see it done.

@VorthosMike @DreamtimeDrinne Also, that whole "Nightmare Weaver" thing.

@uselessend @VorthosMike Also see Neil Gaiman's Sandman and Piers Antony's Incarnation series. They can even trope it if they need to.

@DreamtimeDrinne @uselessend I think you realize that I know it's possible, but I assume they can't deliver. Which I think we agree on. :-/

@VorthosMike @DreamtimeDrinne @uselessend to be fair, the HEAD of MTG creative literally had Elspeth give +3/+3 and flying in Alara novel

@GoingMadlem ...Who are you referring to? Who do you think is the head of creative? :-)
