Naban is a human wizard from Almaaz, Dominaria and the dean of Tolaria West.[1]

History

As a young boy, Naban traveled from his native isle of Almaaz to study at the Tolarian Academy at Lat-Nam.

Now an older man with hard features, he holds the rank of dean and teaches young wizards the principles of countermagic and duplication at Tolaria West.[2]

Jhoira, Liliana, Gideon, Raff and Shanna helped Jodah and Naban to capture the Cabal agent infiltrating Tolaria West.[3]

After the second Phyrexian Invasion of Dominaria, Naban devoted Tolaria West's resources to helping fight against sleeper agents and decipher the Phyrexian language.[1]
