ICONIC AND CHARACTERISTIC CREATURE TYPES AND THE PLANES THEY LIVE (AND DON'T LIVE) ON MEGATHREAD: I'm too sick to do anything useful, so you all must endure my ramblings. #WOTCstaff 1/X
Each color has one iconic creature type. These are generally big, powerful creatures that exemplify the color in some way. Some of these have been with their color from the beginning of Magic; some were picked up along the way. 2/X
Angels in Magic are holy, martial protectors. They are, as a rule, female, in contrast to the male demons. Angels first appeared in Alpha and have been a staple of the game ever since. 3/X 
When I started designing Theros Beyond Death, I already knew that we'd be seeing a lot more of the Underworld than we had in our previous visit to Theros. #MTGTHB #WOTCstaff 1/8
I got really excited about the titans from Greek mythology. These are the primordial ur-gods who created the universe and gave birth to the current crop of gods. Cronos, Oceanus, Hyperion, etc. The gods imprisoned the titans in the Underworld when they rose to power. 2/8
In Magic, we use the Elder creature type to represent huge primordial entities. We always pair it with another creature type. 3/8
