Mr. Rosewater, today is my birthday! Could you tell me something about Jhoira of the Ghitu?

Jhoira was a disciple of Teferi who was a Mage famous for messing with time, so making her card grant suspend to cards felt like a perfect fit. Little bit more of Jhoira trivia. I did the card concepting for Urza’s Legacy. I was very proud of Tinker (it was my reworking of a favorite Antiquities card called Transmute Artifact) and I liked Jhoira, who was a tinkerer, so I put her in the art of the card. Happy Birthday!
