My kinda gal ;)
I might try to find really nice artwork for this one and proxy it. Would be a super fun EDH deck, in my opinion. She has some fantastic protection, two completely untapped tribes, and a game breaking ultimate if you can go off. Would be difficult to run as the deck is essentially unsupported, but there's ways around that ;) Basically Changelings. But there are some nice Hellion and Wurm available to us. For example, Hellion Eruption and Sandwurm Convergence come to mind. The Sorcery has ways to be recast in red; See Charmbreaker Devils and Past in Flames as examples. As for Sandwurm Convergence, any token doubler will suffice. There's also Hellion Crucible, Garruk, Primal Hunter, Worldspine Wurm and of course Wurmcoil Engine.
It definitely would be a difficult deck to run, but completely doable. Definitely not cEDH material - probably mid-tier at best. You'd want tons of ramp in both mana rocks and land tutors, and then you'd want solid card advantage - be it in regular draw or impulse draw.
But, once you get the engine (little pun for you all) going, you can become unstoppable with a force of giant creatures, huge tokens and an ultimate that will end the game. More so one of those decks you sit down to drink a few beers with and eat pizza / tacos while bullshitting the night away - my kind of style, honestly.
For her story, I'd say she's a native to Zendikar and traveled to Ravnica, Amonkhet and Dominaria where she studied Hellion and Wurm. Then returned to Zendikar to unleash their destructive potential (hence her ultimate). I'd say she has the untamed wild heart of the Gruul Clans and likely seeks to spread that influence across the multiverse - firmly making her an antagonist in every sense of the word. Her goal is to destroy civilization and raze the land back into rubble as to cleanse any world of the influence of man and mer alike.
Basically Domri. Lol. But better.

BEDECK (: what playgroup
Lololol
Honestly my coworker fell in love with the idea of proxies (I got him into the game during VOW spoilers). Another friend only has 2 decks left.
So I'm sure proxies are fine, but idk about custom cards. It's hard to not "balance" them in your own personal favor. My personal opinion?
Custom Commander should be fine but the rest of the +99 should be real MTG cards / proxies. Otherwise at that point you're sort of just in a middle school "NUH-UUH, U CAN'T DO THAT" Battle of Wits
Like imagine 10+ custom cards (not proxies). My God you might as well play a sandbox MMORPG at that point.
