It has been 7 days since I have cried over Sorin Markov

Despite last night’s post, I do have a fun fact today.

The original Sorin Markov is the only planeswalker (and one of less than a dozen cards) that can give you control over another player’s turn.

He also does not give them a turn back.

A simple tip that makes my feeds across social media a lot better: if you see art you like, follow the artist immediately.

My feed is so much prettier with all this art.

people are too quick to forget that Sorin Markov was the sadistic and manipulative main antagonist of his debut novel.

this reminds me that about a year ago I did a gift of fangs proxy of Sorin drawing over the same painting Katie referenced here and I wanted to share it!

(Also absolutely go follow Katie right now-)

(Proxy)

Gift of Fangs - (B)

*A young, vampire Sorin Markov lying in a shallow, plant filled body of water. Flowers are covering his hands, neck, and the back of his head and blood is pouring from his mouth. His eyes are closed, but he looks upset.*

Enchantment — Aura

Enchant creature
Enchanted creature gets +2/+2 as long as it's a Vampire. Otherwise, it gets -2/-2.

——
"I never asked for that—"
"My dear boy, that is what makes it a gift.”

(It’s a nitpick. I just love mentioning this character detail because it’s nice seeing a popular male character not being completely shredded and I think it’s a cool character detail-)

You can’t. He isn’t even close to that muscular. that’s okay though. you can appreciate his small boobs instead.

Don’t take my idea >:(

it’s kinda awesome that the heaviest episode of Crimson Vow is named “The Wedding Crashers”

Alek of House Markov @sorinmarkov.bsky.social · 1d

not enough people have read the story where Edgar Markov gets beaten with a metal pipe and that’s really sad.

sorin the mirthless cosplay, but instead of a prop sword I bring a metal pipe

I'll soon be switching the old JoAnn's Gift Card sleeves out on my Will, Scion of Peace deck for these new @dragonshield.bsky.social custom sleeves with @legdotegg.bsky.social art of "What if Will went to Bloomburrow?"

An elk with blue eyes and wearing a blue scarf, brown bag has ice swirling around him in a field . The art is on a box for card sleeves

Sorin Markov - (B)(B)(B)(3)

*Sorin Markov adjusting his glove. He is looking down at the camera with a smile as a bit of blood drips from the corner of his mouth. He is in some sort of cathedral, bathed in green light.*

+2: Sorin Markov deals 2 damage to target creature or player and you gain 2 life.

-3: Target opponent’s life total becomes 10.

-7: You control target player’s next turn.
