[edit] Gabriel Angelfire

A legendary warrior with an indomitable will, deified by his followers. The Church of Angelfire arose to replace the somewhat similar Church of Serra, whose worship is condemned in Benalia. This condemnation dates back to the days of Benalia’s forerunner, the Sheoltun Empire. The Church of Angelfire is perhaps the most popular church in present-day Benalia. The main altar of every church glows with the red-green candlelight of his ‘spirit-flame’, which is almost impossible to snuff once lit.

He later imposes martial law on Ravnica before being defeated shortly afterwards.(Ravnica)

[edit] Greven il-Vec

Greven is the commander of the Predator Flagship. When the Weatherlight arrived in Rath to rescue Sisay, the ship was immediately attacked by Volrath’s own ship, the Predator. The Commander of the Predator is Greven il-Vec, the evincar’s magically mutated enforcer. Greven is a hulking mismatch of metal plates, body parts, and protruding spikes. He burns with ambition and desire to destroy Volrath, who controls him through a horrific implanted Spine (Duelist online, cf. Card: Spinal Graft). The Predator capsizes and throws Gerrard overboard. After that the Predator returns to Volrath’s Stronghold. Furious that Greven failed to capture Gerrard, Volrath uses his dark magic to torture Greven. In return Greven took great pleasure in torturing the captured Karn and Tahngarth. He was temporarily defeated by Gerrard during his raid on the Stronghold and failed to capture the fleeing Weatherlight as it left through the portal to Mercadia. However, he did capture Ertai. Once Belbe arrived to choose the next evincar, he told her that he didn't want the position and that it was his rule to serve. Also, once Volrath returned, after his defeat on Mercadia, Greven helped get him back into the Stronghold to starting planning his coup. Eventually, as Crovax became stronger, Greven was forced to obey him. When the Weatherlight tried to storm the Stronghold, during Planeshift, the Predator was destroyed and Greven was killed by Tahngarth. (Tempest Block)

[edit] Grizzlegom

A Talruum Minotaur who served as a general during the Phyrexian Invasion. (Planeshift)

[edit] The Guardian

An adept of Sahrmal on Shandalar. After the imprisonment of Azar’s and Lim-Dûl’s spirits together in Azar’s body, and the erection of the Great Barrier, he ended his training. Sahrmal chose to invest all his remaining power in him, making him immortal. Thereafter Sahrmal vanished. Known now only as The Guardian the young wizard took up his role of Protector of Shandalar. In time, Shandalar learned to trust the Guardian and accepted him in Sahrmal’s place. He established five guilds which were responsible for teaching and policing the use of the five colours of mana. In time, Lim-Dûl’s powerful spirit won out over that of the fatally inexperienced Azar. Emerging from the secret graveyard, he once again attempted to bend Shandalar to his will. This time, however, the necromancer found that Shandalar had organized, powerful protectors. In the great Wizards War he was defeated soundly. The Guardian removed Lim-Dul’s spirit from Azar’s former body and imprisoned it again, this time in a magical artifact, thus keeping the Great Barrier in existence. Later on, the Guardian became aware of an extraordinarily powerful planeswalker named Arzakon. Evidently, the magical emanations of Sahrmal’s fight with the planeswalkers, Lim-Dûl’s War and the Wizards’ War had been traced by this Arzakon who was stunned by the potential power inherent in Shandalar. His following attempt to penetrate the Great Barrier physically was easily repealed by the ever diligent Guardian. That seemed the end of it until during a conclave the five Guildlords, influenced by Azarkon, struck down the Guardian. (Microprose video game))

[edit] Guff

Commodore Guff was a planeswalker. An avid chronicler of knowledge, he made his niche in Dominia by housing an ultimate library in an isolated realm of his creation.

He was one of the nine titans who attacked and destroyed Phyrexia. Guff subsequently met his demise from Yawgmoth's form sweeping over the combined planes of Dominaria and Rath.(Apocalypse) He allowed the victory of Dominia by erasing Yawgmoth's victory from one of his books. He is a reflection of the author King.
