[All Patrons]New Phyrexia#002 The Gitaxian Lair 32x56 (Patreon)

Jin-Gitaxias is the blue-aligned praetor of New Phyrexia.

When the Phyrexians infected Mirrodin, it was a world of five suns. The five praetors each rose under the influence of each sun. Jin-Gitaxias was influenced by blue mana, so he looked for things with knowledge. He grabs everything he can and improves on it. He is cold, brutal, and believes he is the smartest of the praetors.

Jin-Gitaxias' enormous body is made of chrome, with clawed arms and a curved spine. Exposed ribs and pointed vertebrae are displayed like metalwork. His face and mouth are monstrous and bird-like, with too many sharp points and long, flat teeth. His voice sounds like metal grating against metal.

He hates Vorinclex and considered Karn too incompetent to rule. He once captured Tezzeret, and brought him before Karn. Although Elesh Norn is aware of his machinations, Jin-Gitaxias appears to keep at least a neutral relationship towards her for the moment.
