Crixizix (born Crix) is a female goblin Izzet League member from Ravnica.
Description
Crixizix is a female goblin of the Izzet League, recognizable by her blue robes and distinctive red topknot. Originally born an ordinary goblin, she was radically transformed through augmentation experiments conducted by her magelord, Zomaj Hauc. One of her arms emits a persistent glow, a visible sign of her arcane modifications.
These enhancements granted her super-intelligence—exceeding even many human Izzet researchers—as well as super-speed and limited flight via pyromana-fueled jets embedded in her hollow mizzium shinbones. Crixizix is capable of wielding both blue and red mana in tandem, and she is one of the Izzet’s most versatile and unpredictable assets.[1]
History
In the service as a courier for her magelord, Zomaj Hauc, Crix carried out a covert mission of Hauc's so that he could control the dragons hatched from new-found dragon eggs using a spell engraved into her metallic arm, but without the Izzet parun and guildmaster, Niv-Mizzet knowing this.
Crix traveled to Utvara with Teysa Karlov's lokopede, and became lost when the lokopede was attacked by Gruul. With the help of Vor Golozar, Agrus Kos, and Pivlic, she was able to reach the Cauldron and deliver her message. Hauc, however, proved to be less than thankful; and, Crix defied her master and tried to stop him. She also temporarily saved Agrus Kos by flying off the Cauldron explosion in his personal observosphere, the Pyraquin.
After Hauc's defeat, she was promoted by Niv-Mizzet to the rank of Master Engineer and gained another syllable to her name, officially becoming Master Engineer Crixizix. During the Dissension, she witnessed Niv-Mizzet's battle with nephilim and his withdrawal. She helped the citizens of nephilim-ravaged Utvara, most notably saving and healing the gravely-wounded Pivlic.[2]
