The Traveler, also known in Tazeem as the Outsider, in Tolaria as the Visitor, in Gavony as the Butcher of Crussebourg, and in Shiv as the Hero of Old Onkoom, is the moniker for the player-created human planeswalker that was introduced in Magic: Legends. The Traveler's origins and backstory are currently unknown, and their name, gender, and appearance, as well as their power set, are determined by the player. Non-player characters style the planeswalker as the "Traveler" throughout the game except in Tazeem, where the inhabitants address the person as the "Outsider".[1]
History
The Meditation Realm
Upon sparking to the Meditation Realm, the new planeswalker startled Ral Zarek who was nearby, allowing Vaash Vroga to catch him off-guard and escape. In exchange for the new planeswalker's help tracking Vaash, Ral took on the role of mentor and showed the planeswalker how to follow in Vaash's wake.[2]
Zendikar
The Outsider arrived on Zendikar in the continent of Tazeem, where a wary Nissa warmed up once the Outsider mentioned Ral had sent them. Nissa agreed to help the Outsider track Vaash, but had to redirect the Outsider to Huntmaster Procyon when she discovered a misaligned hedron.[2]
Procyon and the Outsider discovered that the merfolk were corrupting the entire hedron grid using water elementals, causing the wildlife and locals to become unnaturally aggressive. In their search for survivors in Briarthorn Glade, only one animist survived, just long enough to tell them the power was being directed toward the Floating Isles. The corrupted hedrons were luring and empowering the wildlife. Nissa and the village elder Illiadi then sent the Outsider with the ranger Wildorin to realign the hedrons near the Floating Isles.[2]
Amid a sudden conflict between the Vastwood elves and the Briarthorn elves, the merfolk scholar Kama requested the Outsider's aid in stopping the merfolk leaders from corrupting the hedron grid further. Kama and the Outsider discovered message orbs from Noyan Dar, Thada Adel, and Vaash. They also found a chest full of alien artifacts, including Ral's aetheric lens. They brought these back to Nissa for scrutiny. The clues uncovered led Kama to the conclusion that Noyan Dar was the one responsible for the ongoing corruption, even though this seemed entirely out of character for him.[2]
Kama and the Outsider confronted Noyan Dar, who sent water elementals to attack to prevent them interfering with his plan. Once he realized Kama was with the Outsider, he called the elementals off. He explained that Vaash had duped Thada Adel into thinking she could heal Tazeem by restarting the Roil. Unfortunately, Thada's confidence was enough to weaken Noyan's authority over his disciples.[2]
Briarthorn Glade was attacked again, this time by Thada Adel's army. The Outsider and the ranger Elendi were able to fend them off. Nissa and the Outsider then confronted Thada and destroyed the machine.[2]
The Traveler's Realm
Having saved Zendikar, the Outsider walked back to the Meditation Plane, where Ral had been studying a particular pocket of it (known in-game as "Your Realm") that he theorized was somehow connected to the new planeswalker. Ral's suspicion was confirmed when the planeswalker activated the pocket realm's aetheric core simply by mentally focusing on it. The core functioned by condensing aether to create lands.[2]
Dominaria
Excited for the new planeswalker, Ral decided to introduce them to the Sanctum on the Spice Isles of Dominaria. There, the Traveler met with other planeswalkers before returning to Zendikar to investigate some mana towers.[2]
Mana towers and pocket realms
The Outsider returned to Tazeem to ask Nissa about mana towers. She had seen them on every plane, but avoided them since they are artifacts. She also mentioned she destroyed the potentially dangerous artifacts Kama and the Outsider had recovered, including the aetheric lens. She directs the Outsider to one of these towers. It's unclear why, but after deactivating a mana tower, the Outsider hears a pinging sound that indicates the locations of hidden portals to pocket realms similar to their own realm.[2]
