Lore forum

If this is a plane where planeswalkers can become gods, then why isn't the mighty dragon Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker visiting this place?

Because Tri-Color gods are not allowed. XP

Also, I am pretty sure this thread belongs in another forum. :3

Maybe he didn't want to get killed by Elspeth?

Ajani already has a beef with him as is...something would have gone down for sure.

this should probably go in the "Lore" forum.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't some piece of lore, somewhere, say something about Bolas and his relation to Theros lore? It just seems to ring a bell.

Because the Theros gods only hold power over the plane theros, why waste his precious time becoming powerful over theros when there are sooooo many other planes to take over and destroy???

thanks for the move. i was reading a standard forum and this came up lol. i understand about the tri color but when i heard that on this plane you can become a God, his name popped up lol so I thought I would ask.. so the gods of this plane are limited to this plane? that sucks lol

Yeah, Gods only have influence in Theros because only the people of Theros believe in them. That's why Xenagos wanted to be a God: he realised he was pretty insignificant in the grand scheme of things, so he figured he try to get ultimate power over this little bit of the multiverse. Nicol Bolas is arguably the most powerful being in the multiverse, so he wouldn't want to suddenly limit himself to just this one plane.

Cos Theros gods are a shitty downgrade from planeswalker

I'm pretty sure he will return in the next block as to hopefully gain some footing from Tarkir, which will be for some benefit we don't yet know.
