REMADE IN HIS IMAGE

A shadow of its previous glory, Amonkhet is a dead plane that has been conquered by the elder dragon Nicol Bolas. Inspired by the culture and imagery of ancient Egypt, Amonkhet is a plane of mostly vast desert where the dead automatically reanimate as zombies due to The Curse of Wandering. Little is known about Amonkhet prior to Nicol Bolas’ arrival, but it is known that prior to the mending he destroyed most life on the plane and re-engineered it to function as a factory that would hone its inhabitants to physical perfection. Believed by the inhabitants of Amonkhet to be a path to a glorious afterlife, a series of trials that ended in their death were in fact designed to transform the glorified dead into an army of Eternals who would act as Bolas’ undead army.

Amonkhet contains weak, dying laylines, and has no world soul, said by the planeswalker Nissa to have been killed by Nicol Bolas. The last remaining city was known as Naktamun, and was protected by the last five gods on the plane, but it fell during The Hour of Devastation. Even with Nicol Bolas’s defeat in the events of War of the Spark, Amonkhet faces a grim future. The last living beings on the plane now wander the wastes in search of a new home, led and protected by their last living god, Hazoret.
