Planeswalker's Guide to So Ling 素靈

The Plane of So Ling 素靈

The plane So Ling 素靈 was formed when two different forces coalesced, namely Elementals 元素 and Spirits 靈魂. It was a pangaea and they got along despite their differences. Other races immigrated when they saw their cooperative residents. However, the two major races grew distant and eventually formed their separate super-continents.

Ling Zau 靈洲

On the continent Ling Zau 靈洲 formed by Spirits, white and black mana dominated, with some veneration to colorless mana. The Spirits revered the natural cycles and duality themes like day/night, life/death/rebirth, law/crime, etc.

Bllack/White Planeswalker

One such Planeswalker was born from Ling Zau 靈洲. He was a law enforcer who used shady tactics to incriminate the suspects. Eventually he himself was suspected of a crime and sentenced. Unable to cope with this, he went insane and was sent to an asylum. There, at day he seemed pacified, but at night when the moon dominates, he devices evil plans of escape and revenge. One day he totally lost it. That's when his spark activated and he became a Planeswalker. With his newfound powers, he decided to seek justice on his own terms.

His name is Lai Kaa-Ming 黎卡明. He is aligned with white and black mana. His specialty is exiling stuff. (See card below.)

So Zau 素洲

On the other continent So Zau 素洲 formed by Elementals, green, blue, and red mana dominated. Such mana was mostly unstable, but bountiful. Whoever could harness it could unleash powerful spells.

Blue/Red Planeswalker

An accidental creation from a wild experiment, Elex immediately became his master's favorite helper. Over the years Elex assisted his master on countless crazy uncontrolled experiments. One day the master was on his death bed and passed his will onto Elex, which is to contribute his body to experiments. Elex followed his master's words and aspirations ad continued to perform experiments in his master's place. During one such experiment using his master's body, Elex vaporized then reconstituted. He didn't look any different, except he felt a strange new talent.

Elex, Elemental Experimenter, continues to lead and encourage all kinds in order to discover phenomenon like how he gained his Planeswalker spark. (See card below.)

A Planeswalker Visits

This great source of energy attracted a Planeswalker from another plane. Her name is Chandra Nalaar. She was greatly interested in gathering the immense red mana sources. With the aid of the Elementals' basic nature of curiosity and experience, she was able to learn new ways to unleash her inner fire. (See card below.)

Current Events

Brink of War of the Colors: Coi Zin 彩戰

A huge explosion on Ling Zau 靈洲. The government sends a special task force to investigate. Planeswalker Lai Kaa-Ming 黎卡明 also takes it to himself to find the cause of the catastrophe.

On So Zau 素洲, an experiment led by Chandra and her team goes awry. The magic missile flies all the way around to the other side of the world. Chandra leads her team to locate the impact zone.

Racial Tension

Even though Ling Zau is dominated by Spirits, other races also inhabit that continent. Cats are the main white race and Rats are the main black race. Human can be either color. Thrulls are a tough, loyal race who obey masters of both colors.

So Zau is home to Elementals of various colors, namely red, green, and blue. The main races for each color are blue Birds and Merfolk, red Lizard and Dwarves, and green Beasts and Treefolk. One may also encounter other races such Elves, Sphinxes, Orggs, Dragons, and others.
