Vorthos

Vorthos is a player type. It is not exactly a "psychographic profile", as such, as the Vorthos player type is about appreciation, not motivation to win. If Johnny, Timmy and Spike are on a triangle of an x, y axis, Vorthos and Melvin would be on a z axis.

Vorthos' concerns are mostly one of flavor and creative consistency. Continuity and applying a retcon to the past are key aspects of an involved vorthos. Vorthos is a fickle psychographic and on message boards often exists as a hatedom.

Some discussion has been fostered on whether vorthos appreciates the theme of art alteration, but overall viewpoints of it are secondary to continuity. For Innistrad, a viral story was created under a pseudoname, Josh Brauer. Ryan Miller led a team that wrote the stories across a variety of media.

Vorthos users can be found in three main places:

1. Phyrexia Forum

2. Mothership forums: Magic Art and Artists or Flavor and Storylines

3. On Twitter using the #vorthos hashtag.

Wizards of the Coast creative team members who write Vorthos content:

Brady Dommermuth, Jeremy Jarvis, Matt Cavotta, Doug Beyer, Jenna Helland, Adam Lee, and Freelance writers.
