Sphinx
Sphinxes are large, powerful creatures with lionlike bodies, human faces, and feathered wings. Some rival dragons in size and strength. Sphinxes are known for their cunning and vast intellect, and many never speak save in riddles. They are aligned primarily with blue magic, though some may be white and/or black. Sphinxes can be found on the worlds of Dominaria, Ravnica, Alara and Zendikar.
Zendikar
Sphinxes are known to be found in Sejiri and the Jwar Isle in Zendikar, and most recently, Magosi as well.
Alara
Sphinxes on Alara are highly revered and respected as leaders of their communities because of their vast knowledge. The Sphinx Crucius is said to have created Etherium, which shaped Esper into what it is now, and after the shortening of stores of Etherium, Sharuum showed them how to make it last longer. After the Sundering and prior to the Conflux, Sphinxes were found exclusively on Esper.
