- Not to be confused with Loot Niptil.
Loot is an infant of a beast species who was sought and found by the planeswalker Jace Beleren within Maag Taranau on Thunder Junction.
Description
Loot's body is covered in orange fur, and a single tuft of cream hair sits at the top of its head, wedged between two dark horns. A long tail curls around Loot's legs, hollow at the tip. Inside, a blue orb flickers to life. He has a pair of large green eyes.
Loot seemingly has a map of the Multiverse inside his mind. He knows the endpoint of every Omenpath and can see planes coming to life and also returning to darkness.
History
At some point, Loot was sealed inside Maag Taranau for unknown reasons.
Nine years before the events of Outlaws of Thunder Junction, during the time Jace Beleren was part of the Infinite Consortium, Tezzeret sent him to still unsettled plane of Thunder Junction to investigate Maag Taranau, to find something Nicol Bolas was afraid of. Jace detected a slumbering, childlike mind deep within the vault, but could not get in. After relaying this to Tezzeret, they never discussed the vault again.[1]
Two years before the events of Outlaws of Thunder Junction, some time after the War of the Spark, Jace asked Tamiyo about the vault, to which she opened up a scroll which told him about the strange creature inside the vault, including his gender and presumably his capabilities.[1]
At the top of the innermost platform within Maag Taranau was a pod-like structure encased in glass. Metal stretched around the glowing sphere, marked with an ancient script and surrounded by threads of amber magic. Behind it was a mural of an enormous horned creature, towering over the platform like a guardian. When the planeswalker Oko approached the pod, he noticed a shape moving behind the glass, too obscured by a cloudy haze to make out properly.
Jace Beleren, disguised as Ashiok, revealed that he had been looking for the creature inside, Loot. He pressed both hands to the glass, and the pod shattered. Loot rested on what was left of the altar. After that, Jace and and his collaborator Vraska disappeared with Loot.[2]
