Soltari is a white creature type used for cards that depict a Spirit-like race of beings trapped in the Shadows of Rath. All have the keyword ability Shadow.

The cards as they appeared in the Tempest block didn't have the subtype Soltari. It was later realised that a non-human race should have its own subtype, which resulted in Soltari Priest in its Time Spiral/Timeshifted form. The other cards were updated in the Grand Creature Type Update.

The Soltari originally lived on Dominaria, propably with another outward appearance. During the time of their planeshift, the Soltari were at war with the Dauthi. The Thalakos were entrapped in the conflict, despite their neutrality. All three races were caught in the maelstrom of energy that surrounded Rath, and trapped within the "Shadows," the extraplanar space between Rath and Dominaria. They were left in an incorporeal state, unable to communicate with people on either plane, yet able to see into both the Dominarian reality and that of Rath. This predicament led the Dauthi and Thalakos to lose their sanity. The Soltari maintained a stable mind condition through following a religion which offered them peace and solidarity.

After arriving in Rath, Weatherlight‘s planeshifting engine was damaged in battle with the Predator. The wizard adept Ertai therefore volunteered to keep the standing Erratic Portal they found open as an planar escape route. While trying to open the portal, Ertai was contacted by the Soltary Emissary Lyna, who offered to aid his rituals in exchange for letting the Soltari use the portal as well. Ertai agreed and they successfully opened the portal. However, the Weatherlight was being hotly pursued by Predator as it fled and so was forced to leave Ertai behind.

The Soltari and Weatherlight flew into the portal and back home to Dominaria (Aether Tide). It was then revealed that the planeswalker Urza waited on the other side of the portal and was in league with Lyna (Mind Over Matter). He must have met her when he discovered Rath. Urza slammed down the portal, crippling Volrath's flagship in the process. Lyna asked Urza what they were going to do next, and Urza simply said that they would wait.
