History
Leader of a shadowy cabal
Kasmina is the leader of an anciest, secret Order of Planeswalkers, a shadowy cabal with mysterious aims. Her larger goals are unknown but her recent obsession is recruitment. Her preferred method is to identify what she calls "embers", non-ignited Planeswalkers. She helps these mages to discover their potential, even it means causing trauma to ignite the spark, and then indoctrinates them in the ways of her Order. She is preparing for a looming conflict that dwarves the War of the Spark.[4]
War of the Spark
Kasmina was lured to Ravnica by the Interplanar Beacon, and immediately became trapped there due to Bolas's use of the Immortal Sun. Alongside many other planeswalkers and Ravnicans, she fought against the Eternals of Bolas' Dreadhorde.[5] Due to her ability to control magic, she was able to temporarily pull an Eternal to her side during the fight.[2]
