Slivers

Slivers are creatures that share a hive mind, which allows them to share their abilities with other nearby slivers. Cards with the creature type Sliver have an ability or characteristic that they share with other slivers.

The original Slivers were depicted with an armored vertebrate body, a long, bifurcated whip-like tail, one arm with a single talon for a hand, and a singular head with an armored crest.

Variations on this appearance existed in accordance with the abilities each has to offer to the hive.

This weird species comes from an unidentified plane of existence. They were discovered by Volrath, an obsessive zoologist, he was so fascinated by these mesomorphic, hive-minded creatures that he brought the Sliver Queen to the plane of Rath.

During various events and wars, Slivers have multiplied, spread, been extinct and brought back to life.

Currently these creatures, in their most diverse shapes and sizes, have established themselves in various planes of existence, and continue to evolve and conquer.
