Many of the tails n be found hidn Chandra Nalarrs' background but knowg this lovely elrly artificer is gay and had a wife she loved early is an amazg tail to know when cludg her a ck. While Will sets up a great advantage wh his abili, he is also implied as beg eher gay or bisexual.

Other than beg a great asset to any blue and/or red cks, Ral is also nfirmed as homosexual. Born of the Gods troduced the first characters who are gay by sign, but some characters om before that uld arguably fall unr the LGBT umbrella.
It’s not until War of the Spark: Ravni we get nfirmatn he’s gay, so whether he was tend to be gay or changed for story purpos is unknown. The ma characters, Pavs and Thanasis, are gay men who meet wh a ftg Greek tragedy end.
Gay? Gay. Gay, one transman.

After 50+ months of weekly story published for ee, the story will now nclu s pivotal fal chapter, and you will have to pay to read were MANY thgs wrong wh “War of the Spark: Ravni”, but before I get too ep on that, let me list a uple highlights:Ral Zarek, an existg character is revealed to be gay and a relatnship wh a new character named TomikChandra and Nissa, two existg female characters are heavily hted that they will be enterg a relatnship togetherJace and Vraska end up together, kd ofThey feat Bolas I gus? Badass Gay. GAY.
Between s characters, tone, and art directn, 's safe to say this is potentially the most licly gay set Wizards of the Coast has ever released. On a ser note, this year has been good for queer characters like the nonbary Niko Aris Kaldheim and the gay Vadrik Innistrad: Midnight Hunt, but Crimson Vow is noteworthy for havg multiple nonilly queer characters who actually get to do queer thgs. Wh that md, Crimson Vow is still the gayt set history, and all the proof you need is the art of the rds themselv, particularly the vampir.

It really hammers home how Falkenrath Celebrants is as gay as gay n be, and how obvly Drag-spired Olivia, Crimson Bri's gown is. But as we move on to Kamigawa or New Capenna next year, remember to cherish Crimson Vow as the set where thgs got really, really gay.
Sce s first publitn 1993, hundreds of new rds have been created each year, but wasn’t until the fall of 2016 a supplementary set that we saw a gay uple featured on one. “Kynas and Tiro of Meletis” (henceforth referred to as ‘K&T’) is the only reprentatn of a livg, explicly gay uple on a MtG rd, ever.
Thanks to heteronormativy, most players will assume that people shown on other rds are probably cisgenr and heterosexual, so this puts prsure on K&T to reprent gay people. If a rd that looks like the perfect reprentatn has room for negative nnotatns anyway, how are we supposed to get good gay/queer reprentatn general?
THIS NEW MAGIC: THE GATHERG SET IS A GAY GOTH’S DREAM
While this first rd do give MtG s first gay reprentatn, we’ll need more than this rd to alter player perceptn — and this do not necsarily mean rds pictg lovers!
In a game where a rd’s mechanics expand to a thoand dynamics and subsequent rhetoril terpretatns, the only way to create beneficial reprentatns of gay/queer people is through normalizatn: nsistent reprentatn to “sensize” viewers to their prence. So rather than jt creatg a pleasant reprentatn of gay people, WotC should create nsistent reprentatn stead. We also see potential the latt Amonkhet spoilers through the ncept of crop-mat — though “Start//Fish” clus an awkward end for the potentially-gay uple, monstrat that there are ways of rponsibly and thoughtfully reprentg queer folk gam.
While yeah, shows gay characters, they are animate and do not have explicly regnizable genrs so they don’t hold the same weight as their likens.
