Mirrodin is the name of the ''Magic: The Gathering'' expert-level block containing the ''Mirrodin'' (October 2, 2003, 306 cards), ''Darksteel'' (February 6, 2004, 165 cards) and ''Fifth Dawn'' (June 4, 2004, 165 cards) expansion sets. This expansion, as well as the rest of the block, is centered on artifacts and was only the second set to do so (from a card frequency point of view) since ''Antiquities''. The percentage of artifact cards is much higher than in any preceding set. Each of the expansion symbols in the Mirrodin block depicts a legendary artifact: (''Mirrodin''), (''Darksteel'') and (''Fifth Dawn''). ==Storyline: The world of Mirrodin== The setting for ''Mirrodin'' is a plane by the same name. An artificial world created by the planeswalker Karn, originally named argentum, and named after the Mirari by Memnarch, Mirrodin's environments and inhabitants mix organic and metallic. Mirrodin is orbited by four satellites, which are called suns and moons interchangeably, that correspond to red, black, white and blue magic. Green was notably absent until Glissa Sunseeker became a conduit for its birth. The set focuses on five main regions on Mirrodin, each corresponding to a part of the Magic color pie: * The Oxidda Chain, a range of mountains populated by goblins and the human Vulshok tribe. * The Tangle, a dense jungle populated by elves, the human Sylvok tribe and beasts. * The Mephidross, a mucky swamp, and a home of Nim (zombies) and the human Moriok tribe. * Quicksilver Sea, a sea of mercury populated by Vedalken and the human Neurok tribe. * Razor Grass Fields, the plains of Mirrodin, overgrown with sharp metallic grass and home to the Leonin, the human Auriok tribe and Loxodon. The main character of the story is the elf Glissa Sunseeker, who visits all these places, guided by revenge against the machines that killed her family. The story is captured in the novel ''The Moons of Mirrodin'' by Will McDermott. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mirrodin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
