god, Verdigris is such a cool name for a Simic Mirran, because look at this shit

it's a blue-green oxidation that forms on a copper base

might give it to my Phyrexian Sylvok surgeon who helps Jin and Vorinclex create some truly nasty beasts and also specializes in compleating people

My Mirran OC, Rhoda, half-Sylvok, half-Auriok. The metal plates on her body are Rose Gold as a result of the alloying of copper and gold in her body. Details under the cut!

Her father was an Auriok scout who passed by the Sylvok's territory one day, then never returned. Raised by her Sylvok mother, she learned some of the druidic practices of the Sylvok, but excelled in martial training. She fought against phyrexian encroachment in the Tangle, and eventually ended up in the resistance. She fought alongside Jor Kadeen, who taught her how to channel her magic into her weapons in combat. When Melira's existence was made known to the Resistance at large, Rhoda was chosen to be one of her keepers, and she was inspired by Melira to hope for a better future for Mirrodin.

Drawings of my Sylvok OC Neris, half-sister of my other OC Rhoda! Details under the cut!

Rhoda has some really unique features because she's half-Auriok, half-Sylvok, while Neris is fully Sylvok. Rhoda never excelled in druidic magic, but Neris was something of a prodigy, and was studying under Benzir with the Temple of Might from an early age. When Benzir betrayed their village to the Vicious Swarm, Neris used her magic to make a distraction that allowed her sister and a few other Sylvok to escape, but she was left in Benzir's clutches. She was infected by Benzir and Glissa personally, and they would have started the process of compleation if an intruding Mirran rebel hadn't snuck in and tried to plant a spellbomb just then. She managed to escape, and was rescued by Ezuri's forces, who managed to slow the progress of her phyresis by providing her with some blinkmoth serum they managed to secure from some other refugees, in exchange for her using her magic to assist in their efforts. She nearly succumbed to Phyresis, delirious and weak, but was saved at nearly the last moment by her sister and Melira, who managed to cure her in time.
