adjective
1. In the absence of (something).
EX. I hate to use some somewhat obscure humor today, sorry non-MTG fans, but the magic fans will appreciate this and the web comic:
You should definitely check it out if you're a magic fan for some magic game/backstory humor. But yeah, why was Sorin in absentia in the final act of the Innistrad story? He returns to his home turf Innistrad to, supposedly, discover what happened to the plane's goddess and his creation Avacyn, Angel of Hope. And he just sort of shows up, there is a new planewalker card for him, and then that's it?
This is a pretty ridiculous situation and really I wouldn't be surprised if they either forgot about him or plan on having something in the future tie back to Innistrad (it was a very popular bloc), but I just don't know...
He was the first planeswalker I ever pulled out of a booster. |
