Brushwagg is a green creature type that was first used in black border for the card Brushwagg in Mirage.
Description[]
A Brushwagg is an animal of varying size, which looks like a heap of animated kindling. Its body is covered in twigs which make a characteristic noise when it moves. It's able to grow huge and mighty but spends most of its time as small as a hedgehog.[1]
History[]
The subtype survived the Grand Creature Type Update. Almighty Brushwagg would much later be printed in Ikoria: Lair of Behemoths.
Another Brushwagg appeared as a test card in the Mystery Booster set (Interplanar Brushwagg).
Storyline[]
“ | Defiantly, the young cyclops popped the brushwagg into his mouth. His cheeks suddenly puffed, his eye bulged, and he was forced to agree with his elder | ” |
—Afari, Tales |
Dominaria[]
The Brushwaggs of Dominaria may be found on Jamuraa. They despise combat, and are often used as a messenger. In fact, it is a very intelligent animal, since he is shown to be able not only to understand human speech but also to write messages by pawing in the dust (even if in a confusing way of sort).[2]
Ikoria[]
The odd little Brushwaggs are also found on Ikoria. The small but tough hedgehog-like creatures are usually given a wide berth by bigger monsters.[1]
