Continuity issues

  • Similar to the problems with Tor Wauki's continuity, the problem of two characters with the same name was a result of bad communication between the writers. Clayton Emery was told to include certain legends from Legends, and Scott McGough wasn't informed those characters were already being used.
  • Several theories about how these two versions of the character could exist in the same continuity have been made.[1] Some suggest that Caleria's elven blood allowed her to live for ages, long enough to get godlike status among the mortal humans. Others think hunting skills might run in her family, for which they took the name of the goddess of the hunt.
  • To make matters worse, the oracle text of Lady Caleria listed her type as Legendary CreatureHuman Archer.
    • This was amended, when Human was changed to Elf in 2020.[2]
    • The 2022 Legends Retold version of card was also an Elf Archer.
