House Dimir’s cards are full of Rogues and Wizards. By controlling the flow of information and spreading lies, rumors, and misinformation, they maintain their power over the people.ĭimir Agents are spies, assassins, saboteurs, secret agents, and corrupt politicians. They’re sustained through learning every secret they can get their hands on. Thus ensuring that only Lazav has complete knowledge of all of House Dimir’s undertakings and no captured agent can divulge all of House Dimir’s secrets even if they talk. Most Dimir Agents only know a small handful of other agents, mainly their contacts and those they report to, though not always them either.

Blue favors control, favoring planning and clever gambits over rushed, emotional outbursts.

Blue believes in progress and the acquisition of information, believing that innovation and new ideas are better than tradition. Blue is the color of intellect and insight. Black’s ranks are mostly filled with assassins, vampires, zombies, ghosts, and demons. Black’s playstyle is ruthless, with more cards that kill, weaken, and damage enemies. Black doesn’t care what moral lines it crosses in pursuit of its desires, and will step over its own allies to get what it wants. Black is the color of ambition and amoral pragmatism. In Magic the Gathering, every color has associated values and philosophies. All Dimir cards are Black and/or Blue cards. Their headquarters is hidden below the city, in the sewer systems that run below the feet of the citizens.
