The Invasion of the Multiverse by the forces of New Phyrexia was a conflict between New Phyrexia's Machine Legion and the Multiverse at large.[1] It ended with the victory of the Multiversal coalition, the death of the five Praetors of New Phyrexia and the phasing out of New Phyrexia.

Background

After the conquest of Mirrodin and its transformation into New Phyrexia, Elesh Norn, the White-aligned praetor, started a civil war against her brethren. Jin-Gitaxias, Vorinclex and some of the steel thanes deferred to her willingly while Sheoldred and Urabrask planned rebellion; for this, their realms were laid to waste, though they survived. Emerging as the Mother of Machines and sole power above all of New Phyrexia, Norn's Machine Orthodoxy evolved into the Machine Legion. Norn then started planning the accomplishment of Phyrexia's great ideal: the compleation of the Multiverse itself. This plan would encompass various stages.

Build up

Vorinclex on Kaldheim

By using Tezzeret's Planar Bridge, Vorinclex invaded the plane of Kaldheim. After causing death and destruction on the plane, he was confronted by a force consisting of the planeswalker Kaya Cassir, the god Alrund, and the Omenseekers of Bretagard. While Vorinclex was forced to retreat, he fought the god Esika, mortally wounding her and leaving Kaldheim with a sample of tyrite, a powerful material connected to Kaldheim's World Tree. This sample would be used by Elesh Norn to create New Phyrexia's version of a World Tree, the Realmbreaker.

Jin-Gitaxias on Kamigawa

The Blue-aligned Praetor's task was to find a way to compleat planeswalkers. A daunting task, as the spark is linked to the soul, and compleation removes the victim's soul. Jin-Gitaxias observed the Kami of Kamigawa, traveling there through the Planar Bridge to experiment on them. His efforts would be successful as Tamiyo would be the first planeswalker captured and subjected to the process of compleation.

Urabrask on Capenna

Aware of Elesh Norn's plans, Urabrask and his co-conspirator Tezzeret traveled to the metropolis of New Capenna, the only city remaining on the plane of Capenna, formerly devastated by Yawgmoth's Phyrexians. As the denizens of Capenna managed to defeat their Phyrexian invaders, Urabrask hoped to find there a way to stop Elesh Norn. He came into contact with Vivien Reid and tasked her to find Elspeth Tirel. In the process, Urabrask obtained Halo, a substance made from angelic essence that is highly toxic to Phyrexians. He then returned to New Phyrexia, where he would help the Mirran Resistance's efforts against Norn.

Initial incursion & response

Sheoldred on Dominaria

Sheoldred invaded Dominaria, desiring to conquer the plane as well as obtain powerful artifacts from it. From her base at Koilos, she would send armies of sleeper agents to infiltrate Dominaria's major political and military centers, hoping to foster division and mistrust on the plane. Sheoldred built an army and managed to fight the Dominarians on multiple fronts. She then compleated Ajani Goldmane as a sleeper agent and captured Karn. The compleated Ajani, on finding the Sylex, revealed his new Phyrexian nature, killed Jaya Ballard, and destroyed the Sylex.

Assault on New Phyrexia

After the events on Dominaria, Teferi Akosa and Saheeli Rai created an artifact called the Temporal Anchor, a device that allowed Teferi to travel in time. He hoped to reach the time of the Brothers' War, hoping to find the way to activate the Sylex, as Saheeli made a perfect copy of the destroyed device. He arrived in the past just in time to witness the Sylex Blast and found out that it was a person, not a spell or an artifact, that can activate the Sylex. The Anchor malfunctioned and Teferi was sent through time and space, finding himself on a beach, later determined to be Zhalfir.

Jace Beleren then contacted various planeswalkers on different planes, tasking them to shore up their homelands' defense against the impending Phyrexian invasion. He then put together a strike force consisting of his lover Vraska, Kaya, The Wanderer, Kaito Shizuki, Nissa Revane, Lukka, Nahiri, Koth of the Hammer, Tyvar Kell and Elspeth Tirel, whom he named the leader, as she was the most experienced military commander of the team. They infiltrated New Phyrexia, hoping to detonate the Sylex in the Seedcore, the place where Realmbreaker grew.

Disrupted by a planar shield Norn placed around New Phyrexia, the strike force was scattered across the plane. Kaito, the Wanderer, Nahiri, and Tyvar arrived on the surface layer, the Monumental Façade, and were brought to Lowlight on Mirrex by Melira.[2] The Wanderer, whose spark was further disrupted by the barrier, was forced to leave this group after their arrival. Elspeth and Kaya also arrived on this layer, brought below by Thrun.[3] Jace and Nissa arrived at another location on the Facade, but a trap shunted Nissa to the Hunter Maze soon after. These six regrouped in the Furnace Layer, while Lukka arrived in the Hunter Maze with Nissa.[4] Bonding with a local Phyrexian beast, Lukka was quickly compleated and Nissa injured as they moved toward the center of the Maze and fought Vorinclex and Glissa. Nissa would later be captured and compleated as well.[5]

Bypassing the Hunter Maze and the Surgical Bay through an extended lacuna, Jace, Kaya, Kaito, Nahiri, Koth, Tyvar, and Elspeth reached the Dross Pits.[6] After the planeswalkers used Halo, Jace's mind-link was restored and Vraska called out to him, fighting in Sheoldred's Coliseum and heavily injured.[7] When the strike team attempted to rescue her, it was revealed that she was already too far gone, and she infected Jace as well. Advancing her infection, Nahiri dropped the Coliseum into the Fair Basilica, taking the strike force closer to their goal.

Once they arrived at the core, Jace tried to use his last remaining moments as a free-thinking human to detonate the Sylex. A fight ensued between him and the uncompleated planeswalkers, as the Sylex detonation could affect their home planes as well. Eventually, Elspeth stabbed Jace with Luxior and picked up the Sylex which exploded, sending itself and Elspeth outside the Blind Eternities.[5]

The Invasion

With the planeswalker task force's failure, Elesh Norn and the compleated planeswalkers started the invasion. Nahiri, Lukka, Tamiyo and Vraska[8] were tasked to go after their home planes, while Ajani was dispatched to Theros instead of Alara and Atraxa towards Capenna, both of which had specific capacities that Norn was concerned about.[9] Millions of Phyrexians immediately entered the omenpaths and traveled to new planes.[7] Tezzeret obtained his Darksteel metal body and escaped to Esper before he could be compleated. By the time he arrived on Alara, the planes of Cabralin, Mirrankkar, Obsidias, Ilcae and Aranzhur fell to the Machine Legion, with Alara's shard of Esper being invaded as well. Tezzeret hoped that the angels of Bant could turn the tide against the Phyrexians as those of Capenna did long ago.

The New Phyrexian invasion force, known as the Machine Legion, was split up into five factions:[10][11]

  • The Alabaster Host[12] ({W}) comprises the bulk of the invading force and can be found on every invaded plane.[10] The Alabaster Host is the most unrelenting and fanatical host of the Machine Legion. As they invade, they sing hymns to the Machine Orthodoxy.[11] The Alabaster Host is led directly by Elesh Norn, who masterminds the deployment of the Machine Legion from her throne room on New Phyrexia.
  • The Chrome Host[13] ({U}) is commanded by Jin-Gitaxias.[11] As the first praetor to align with Elesh Norn, he was rewarded by being allowed to keep command of the Chrome Host and uses them to gather information throughout the Multiverse. The Chrome Host is deployed strategically to each plane to maximize efficiency of Jin-Gitaxias's forces, based on existing knowledge of that specific plane. They are known to have invaded Kaladesh, Theros, Kamigawa, Arcavios and Eldraine.
  • The Etched Host ({B}), divided among the remaining thanes after Sheoldred's execution.[11] The Etched Host is the most vicious and brutal host of all the Machine Legion, with each thane eager to gain Elesh Norn's approval through their display of cruelty.
  • The Furnace Host[14] ({R}), led by no one due to Urabrask's refusal to participate in the invasion;[15] rather, Norn simply turned them loose upon the Multiverse to wreak havoc and destruction as they pleased.[16][11] The host was part of the invasion force on Eldraine, Arcavios, Kaladesh, Ixalan, Lorwyn–Shadowmoor and Mercadia.
  • The Copper Host[17] ({G}), under Vorinclex, uses the invasion to test potential new Phyrexians, rewarding only the strongest with compleation.[11] Because of this, the Copper Host has the lowest compleation rate out of all the hosts, but those they do compleat are among the most savage and powerful of all converts. This host is known to have invaded invaded Amonkhet, Ikoria and Ixalan.

Conquered planes

Invaded planes

Defense of the Multiverse

Alara

The invasion of Alara seemed to be a simultaneous strike on Esper, Bant, and Jund. At some point during the battle, the Maelstrom itself rose against the invaders.

Amonkhet

Vorinclex's Copper Host was the main invasion force on Amonkhet. They terraformed the dead desert with strange Phyrexian flora and uncovered the various Necropoli, attempting to convert the dead into new forces. This was opposed by the Scarab and Locust Gods who were still serving the missing Bolas. Jin-Gitaxis also commented that Bolas's attempts to forge an army were inefficient due to the time needed, but it offered the Phyrexians a bounty of available combat units to be compleated. It was also discovered that Lazotep negates the effects of the glistening oil and compleation. The nomadic living conclave was defended by Djeru and Hazoret.

Arcavios

Warned ahead of time by Liliana Vess, Strixhaven University readied its strongest spellcasters and most powerful spells—but invaders were ready for them.[11] The faculty members, who were the first line of defense, were unable to fight off the Phyrexians and fell, joining the invaders' ranks.

The invasion was temporarily thwarted by the Invocation of the Founders, which repelled the Phyrexian forces. As the spell resolved, the Biblioplex buckled and broke, crashing down as the stones of Strixhaven's outlying buildings came apart like sugar cubes in tea, the invasion portals crumpled, and the Invasion Tree's branches thrashed as the sky tried to close in on itself.

Though Strixhaven was in ruins, the main wave of compleated professors and other Phyrexians was obliterated by the spell. The surviving students and deans were able to regroup, under the leadership of Professor Vess and Dean Embrose Lu. When the group of casting students was found under the rubble badly injured, it seemed that Quintorius Kand had vanished, his planeswalker's spark ignited by the stress of casting the Invocation. The status of the founder dragons is unknown.

Azgol

The invading Phyrexians had stiff resistance on this world due to its Ashen Reaper zombies being immune to compleation and also being unable to approach the Ashen Idol without an offering, resulting in volcanic eruptions that decimated their forces.

Belenon

Belenon is a world very similar to Bant with knights that believe in something called the Sacred Winds. They opposed the invasion, empowered by their ideals.

Capenna

As the source of Halo, an angelic substance that can temporarily halt or repel Phyrexianization, New Capenna is of special interest to the Phyrexians.[11] Elesh Norn dispatched Atraxa as her lieutenant to lead the invasion and cut Halo off at its source. As branches of the Invasion Tree twined around the city's girders, Atraxa took over Park Heights and ruthlessly brought the Maestros under her sway.

Upon witnessing this, the rest of the crime families joined forces to fight against the dominion of this dark angel.[11] With the Riveteers spearheading the defensive forces, they were able to manipulate the city's infrastructure itself and thus hold the defensive line against the Maestros and Atraxa. Halo-infused weaponry gave them an edge against the Phyrexians that made it a tough, gritty struggle for territory in which neither side had a definitive advantage.

Dominaria

Elesh Norn tasked the Invasion of Dominaria to the newly compleat Rona. This attack faced extremely stiff resistance and was defeated at several points due to the populace being aware of its coming, their experience against Phyrexians, and Jodah's leadership.[11] The knights of New Benalia in particular led from the front lines. When Elesh Norn ordered the desecration of Serra's temples to break the spirit of the locals, this led to the return of Serra's angels to the multiverse to join the fight. Rona, meanwhile, led a sneak attack on Tolaria West and proceeded to decimate the staff and students to an unknown extent.

Eldraine

Eldraine suffered great losses during the Invasion. It had started subtly in the Wilds and remained undetected. However, within days of Realmbreaker's appearance, the courts of the Realm had fallen, the King and Queen Kenrith were killed, and Ayara had been compleated, along with her guards and all of Castle Locthwain.[20][11] The various knights were forced into guerilla warfare against the Phyrexians. Surprisingly, the fae of the Wild assisted against the invaders and also protected others passing through the wilds. The invasion was defeated by accident when Rankle the fae used a Ring of Three Wishes to make a love potion rain down across Locthwain, causing all of the invaders to fall madly in love with Rankle and fall into a chasm to their deaths. Rankle's victory was followed up by a powerful sleeping spell over the masses, cast by an as-of-yet-unknown entity.

Ergamon

Ergamon is seemingly populated by a race of rhinoceros-like creatures that defended their world against the Phyrexian invaders. Strangely, during the Invasion, natural predator-prey relationships were put on hold until the Phyrexians were defeated.

Fiora

Queen Marchesa secured the grip on her throne and the loyalty of her people by leading the defense of the plane and successfully beating the Phyrexians back.

Gobakhan

The diamond storms of Gobakhan hampered Phyrexia’s progress until they compleated some of the local shieldmages. Despite their best efforts, Phyrexia failed to break through the defenses of the people.

Ikoria

Lukka returned to Ikoria compleated, destroying Drannith and scattering its people.[21] However, his assimilation strategy seemed to revolve around personally amassing the monsters into a titanic humanoid monstrosity, limiting its infectious spread. With no plane of her own to defend, Vivien Reid took to arranging the defense of Ikoira alongside Chevill and Jirina Kudro. The crystals of Ikoria began seeping glistening oil and producing copper oxide growths, but quickly the natural mutations fought against it, granting oil-vaporizing crystals to the defending beasts of Ikoria.[11]

Jirina Kudro had survived Lukka's sacking of Drannith, leading the survivors to Lavabrink while he slowly amassed the beasts of Ikoria.[21] On the way she was assisted by Vivien Reid and Chevill. With many wounded unable to outpace the monstrosity Lukka had formed, Jirina led them to Vadrok's nest, where Vadrok made short work of Lukka's flesh-titan and ripped him from it. Lukka was then burned by Vadrok's ethereal fire and finished off by Vivien. With the remaining humans at Vadrok's mercy, he merely flew off, allowing Jirina to lead the survivors away while more omenpaths opened over Ikoria.

Innistrad

After the balance of night and day was restored, Teferi Akosa warned Arlinn Kord to watch out for "mechanical creatures." She and Sorin Markov worked together to protect Innistrad, preparing it for a possible Phyrexian invasion. Eventually Innistrad was invaded by New Phyrexia. Though Thalia and the Gitrog monster became allies, the humans and monsters at large didn't join forces, instead employing piecemeal, uncoordinated defenses that nonetheless held back the Phyrexians with less difficulty than other planes.[11] Nonetheless, thousands were killed across the plane.

As the glistening oil first affects the living mind, Innistrad's zombies were immune to phyresis, making them crucial to the plane's defense.[22][11] Phyrexians, conversely, resisted both ghoul-calling and stitching. Gisa and Geralf Cecani were able to defeat a powerful Phyrexian invasion force attacking Havengul using their combined undead forces.

Ixalan

The continent of Ixalan was invaded by the Alabaster, Copper, and Furnace hosts from the seas on submarine-like war machines, bursting onto land and charging inwards.[11] However, the plane was ready for the attack due to the forewarning of Huatli. The vampires of the Legion of Dusk joined and fought side by side with warriors of the Sun Empire. The Phyrexians used their glistening oil to reanimate dinosaur skeletons from the island's tar pits and had hoped to convert as many of the plane's dinosaurs into warbeasts as possible.

In the early days of the invasion, the sun was blocked out by smoke and falling ash from constant fires burning across the plane.[19] After the elder dinosaur Etali was compleated, severe hurricanes began forming just off the coast of the continent of Ixalan. The skies flashed with red lightning, and the wind sparkled with razors, preventing aerosaurs from flying.

A dozen towns along the northern barrier of the continent of Ixalan were wiped out, with a thousand reported dead. In the south of the Sun Empire, Atzocan, Otepec, and Little Pocatli suffered similar fates. The Sun Empire, pirates, and the Legion of Dusk banded together to fight the invaders, and Etali was finally felled by Zacama after injuring Zetalpa.[19]

Kaladesh

Thanks to Chandra Nalaar and Saheeli Rai's warnings, the people of Kaladesh had time to prepare.[11] When branches of the Invasion Tree finally broke through, the Phyrexians found themselves facing a strong resistance led by the vicious dinosaur-based designs of Project Golden Scale, turning what they assumed would be a quick, simple fight into a protracted struggle to establish a foothold.

Kaladesh’s glowing aether was of utmost interest to Jin-Gitaxias and his Chrome Host. To speed up compleation of the plane, the Machine Host raced to the Aetherflux Reservoir, hoping to twist the flow of aether in the plane to their own designs.[11] While most of the city of Ghirapur was evacuated, Pia and its artisans worked to defend the reservoir, which if breached would destroy the city. At some point, Dhiren Baral was released from prison to assist with the defense. In light of his zealous defense of the plane, the new Consulate forgave all of Baral's previous transgressions.

Kaldheim

When the Invasion Tree broke into Kaldheim, the first thing it did was to snarl itself around the World Tree, causing devastating Doomskars as the ten realms crashed violently into each other or were ripped apart.[11] The infection even spread to the Cosmos itself, and now compleated Cosmos monsters stalk the realms, devouring lands whole.

Tens of thousands of seed pods launched from Realmbreaker onto Kaldheim, each carrying multiple Phyrexian soldiers.[23] Harald led Skemfar's elves in defense of the realm, and after Omenpaths connected survivors from all ten realms, they brought the fight through the Cosmos to the World Tree itself. To deprive the Phyrexians of the World Tree's power, Kaldheim's inhabitants opted to burn it instead.

Kamigawa

The invasion began in Towashi: The Invasion Tree broke through around Boseiju and quickly began wreaking havoc on the city.[11] The first wave of defenders consisted largely of samurai, who quickly found themselves in over their heads and tragically compleated. With their first line of defense gone, the ninjas of Kamigawa had to employ stealth, cunning, and all the battle trickery they could to hold their own against the compleated samurai's brute strength and force.[11]

Karsus

The elementals of Karsus combined together to form redoubtable colossi that fought the New Phyrexian invaders. Also, the viashino of the plane rose against New Phyrexia.

Kylem

The rumors that Kylem might be invaded weren't taken seriously at first, with the people preferring to focus on sport and preening champions. However, when New Phyrexia arrived, the competitors fought the invaders just as well as they fought each other in the competitions.

Lorwyn

The Phyrexian appearance was so unsightly to the eyes of the plane's inhabitants that both perfects and eyeblights worked together in unprecedented kinship to repel the invaders.

Mercadia

Moag

Muraganda

Pyrulea

Ravnica

Vraska led the invasion of Ravnica, first directing Realmbreaker toward the Azorius Senate and the jail in which she was once imprisoned.[8] As vengeance for her fellow gorgons whose eyes were removed, she ordered for Ravnicans to be blinded, letting them writhe in pain upon the glistening oil-slicked streets. The Golgari were the primary converted force, with many members of the Simic and Izzet willingly undergoing compleation.[11]

Various planeswalkers, notably Teyo Verada and Ral Zarek, helped to repel the invasion, with Zarek able to defeat Vraska with a sonic weapon attuned against the oil.[24][8] Bolstered by the power of the Guildpact and with the support of Guildpact Paragons, the guilds and their leaders also fought to defend Ravnica.[25][26][27]

Regatha

Segovia

Shandalar

Tarkir

Though the Phyrexians get a strong start, the dragonlords quickly rallied and pushed back, stopping them from overwhelming the plane decisively.[11] To do this, they partnered up with those under their rule, filling the skies with aerial dragon battles where dragons managed to hold their own against their Phyrexianized brethren with the help of those who served under them.

Theros

Led by a Phyrexian Ajani Goldmane, the first wave of the invasion targeted temples and other places of worship.[11] Due to the nature of faith on Theros, compleating the gods' devotees meant that the gods themselves, influenced by their new Phyrexian worshippers, succumbed and became Phyrexians as well.

The city of Meletis stood as the last bastion of resistance against an endless onslaught of Phyrexian armies.[11] Hordes of Phyrexian monstrosities assailed the city from air, land, and sea, while Meletian defenders fought valiantly to drive them off. With the aid of Ephara, one of the few surviving Theros gods, sustained by the belief of those within the city walls, they managed to hold their own.

Tolvada

Ulgrotha

Vryn

Xerex

The literal-minded Phyrexians were unable to cope with the distortions of reality on Xerex and were likely repelled by the knights and angels native to the plane.

Zendikar

The fight on Zendikar was split between two main arenas of action: the wilderness, where the land itself rose up against the Phyrexians; and the Skyclaves, where teams of elite defenders made a daring run to bring down Nahiri's compleation engine, formed from the compleated remains of the Skyclaves.[11]

Zhalfir

After Wrenn bonded with Realmbreaker, she was able to contact Teferi Akosa on Zhalfir, opening a connection between Zhalfir and New Phyrexia.[28] Gathering thousands of soldiers from across the plane due to Zhalfir's time distortion, Teferi led a counter-invasion of New Phyrexia.

The Invasion's End

New Phyrexia-Zhalfir switch

Main article: New Phyrexia-Zhalfir switch

After the surviving members of the strike team returned to Dominaria to warn the others about the invasion, Chandra Nalaar and Wrenn hatched a plan. They planeswalked together to New Phyrexia and, alongside Koth and Melira, fought their way to the Seedcore, where Norn was overseeing the invasion. After a struggle in which the newly ascended archangel Elspeth arrived to help, Wrenn fused with Realmbreaker, using its branches to contact Zhalfir.[28] There she found Teferi, who had been shunted there after the failure of the Temporal Anchor. She used Realmbreaker to switch the places of Zhalfir and New Phyrexia in the Blind Eternities, bringing the Zhalfirins to New Phyrexia and the remaining Mirrans to Zhalfir.

After a pitched battle, Vorinclex, Jin-Gitaxias, and Elesh Norn were all slain. Norn had egotistically wired the center of the Phyrexian hive mind through herself and, with her death, was no longer able to transmit orders. This functionally marked the end of the invasion, as the Phyrexians shut down and became unable to fight back against the multiversal coalition.
