Elsa and Captain Hook are both Dreamborn, while Maleficent, Robin Hood and Cruella are all Storyborn
With only 9 bland cards, there are lots of good swap-ins to choose from in Amethyst and Steel
We developed a workflow that asked concept artists and card artists to pull hallmark character designs from Yoshitaka Amanos original (and legendary) concept art, the original FFVI sprites, and the FFVI Pixel Remaster character portraits, to synthesize the most consistent elements of each characters design into something new. We also encouraged our artists to punch up finer details and bsexplore elements where they thought they could push (fabric, patterns, textures, etc.) Then, we would meet with the Final Fantasy VI review team, and they would give us feedback on what core elements they wanted to preserve and what new elements they were excited about. "It's our hope that the [FF6] character designs should feel like how you 'remember' them..." So they had the four games decided, but when it comes to Commander, thats only half the equation WOTC also needed to figure out which characters would lead each deck
As well as the regular set, MTG Final Fantasy also had a bonus sheet called 'Through the Ages'
