Arixmethes is so large that he is frequently mistaken for an island. While he slumbered, an entire city was built on his back. When he awakened, as the planeswalker Kiora battled the sea god Thassa, he wrought destruction beyond any the hapless citizens of the "island" had ever known.[2]
Arixmethes fought in defense of Theros during New Phyrexia's Invasion of the Multiverse.[3][4]
