Auntie Grub is a goblin and the greatest auntie of Lorwyn's history and a goblin folk hero.[1]

History

A sage, matriarch, and apothecary, Auntie Grub is the source of many parables and much wisdom that boggarts hold dear. She and her frog familiar, Smlurf, have survived from the Age of Oona until today, and she espouses life lessons to anyone who will listen. Her lessons include survival strategies honed during the elves' mass culling of boggarts and the Phyrexian Invasion. Today, her parables are used in the enactment of magical rituals. If transformed into her Shadowmoor self, Auntie Grub becomes isolated and cruel, hoarding knowledge rather than sharing it. She is more adept at making potions in Shadowmoor, though their effects are even more chaotic and deadly.[2]
