The Eye of Ugin is a secret underground cavern in Zendikar named after the planeswalker Ugin. Here the spell that kept the Eldrazi imprisoned was focused.
At some point Nicol Bolas became aware of the Eye and later send Sarkhan Vol to guard it. Chandra Nalaar found this place following the map she first found on Kephalai, with Jace Beleren chasing after her.
When Chandra and Jace confronted Sarkhan at the Eye, they found out that colored magic was absorbed immediately, taking no effect. Moreover the place was keyed to a specific event, the presence of three planeswalkers and the breath of Ugin. During their fight, Chandra used an invisible flame spell against Sarkhan, thus triggering the release of the Eldrazi.

Kozilek, asesino de la verdad
Kozilek, the "Butcher of Truth" is one of the three Eldrazi titans and the inspiration for the merfolk god Cosi. It is a reality-slicing abomination of relentless insanity. Kozilek represents themes of deception, puzzles, lies, mind domination, transformation, and experimentation. Sages call Kozilek the confusion of panic, the trap of enigmas, and the harrower of thought.
Eldrazi of the Kozilek brood lineage have many eyes growing near joints or along body ridges, jagged plates or blades of lustrous black mineral jutting from or floating around their bodies, and animalistic or insectoid anatomies covered in tough carapaces. Kozilek's drones can absorb life just by their presence, but prefer to rend flesh with their onyx-like projections.

Patriarca de la Cábala
Virot Maglan, the Cabal Patriarch (also known as the First of the Cabal) was the leader and founder of Otaria's Cabal. As the first and chief worshipper of Kuberr he was gifted with an enormously extended lifespan and the ability to decay anything he touched. Under his influence the Cabal grew to be highly wealthy and influential on Otaria. He was exiled to Aphetto whenAmbassador Laquatus provided Chainer with his secret name, Calchexas, as even with the Mirari Chainer had been unable to kill him. Following Chainer's death, the First regained control over the Cabal based in Aphetto and looked to extend his influence over Otaria through creating the Grand Coliseum.
He found a form of love in Phage, who shared his curse of decaying all flesh he touched. He made her increasingly important to the Cabal, placing her in charge of the construction of the Grand Coliseum. However, he soon lost interest and began seeing her as a threat. He attempted to have her killed on several occasions, each of which failed. He eventually had a child with Phage who turned out to be none other than the reborn Kuberr. Shortly after the birth, the First again tried to kill the weakened mother but found that he had lost his immortality due to betraying Kuberr, allowing Braids to intervene and snap him in half with a dementia creature.

Ultra Pro Pro-Binder
Pensando seriamente en comprar una de estas para la colección. Tiene espacio para 360 cartas, lo que no alcanzaría para la colección completa, ya que sacando las cartas de Kamigawa, la colección consta de 411 cartas hasta el momento y no quiero tener que comprar otra carpeta. Además no hay manera de arreglar la colección, dejando espacio para las cartas faltantes, sin tener que moverlas de bolsillo, lo que al final termina dañando las cartas.
Las cartas nuevas que van saliendo con el tiempo es otro problema, ya que la colección se va expandiendo. Por lo que vemos en ISD saldrán la menos otras 5 leyendas, una de cada tribu y todas multicolor (excepto Mikaeus) así que lo más probable es que esta carpeta no sea una tan buena opción como había creído.
¿Cuál sería la mejor manera de ordenar y guardar la colección? Recibo cualquier tipo de opinión.

Cenizeida la extinguidora
In Shadowmoor, Ashling became the Extinguisher, also known as the Destroyer to the other races. She was both worshipped and hated by thecinders, the creatures that the Great Aurora changed the flamekin into - who blamed her for their wretched state. Unable to control the elemental rage and power, and driven by her own desire for revenge to those who abused her, Ashling the Destroyer laid waste to many places in Shadowmoor. She was repelled from Mistmeadow at the cost of life of the Vigilant Eidren of Wilt-Leaf, and from Kinscaer by the protective magic of kithkin augur Warree Tarcha. The combined effort of Maralen, Brigid Baeli, captain Sygg and the Source of Wanderbrine managed to subdue the Destroyer. Oona stepped in and tried to gain the elemental power for herself, but Maralen aided by the scroll of Rosheen Meanderer gained the power instead. Ashling, reduced to flamekin level again, repented her actions, and tried to atone a bit by helping Rhys of the Wilt-Leaf, Maralen and Colfenor's sapling to defeat and destroy Oona. With the new order of day and night established on Lorwyn/Shadowmoor, Ashling remains the last and only true flamekin on the new world.
Sygg, degollador del río
After Lorwyn turned into Shadowmoor, Sygg of the Razorfin became a pirate (although his card is a rogue), with Brigid as part of his crew. After the encounter with Jack Chierdagh, Brigid left his crew along with Wryget. Sygg later gathered a new gang, consisting of Kasella (now an Inkfathom concubine and assassin), and warrior-tideshapers Artio and Scathak. During that time, Sygg communed with the Source of Wanderbrine and learned about his destiny as the Heir to Morningtide. Sygg agreed to help Maralen and Brigid to ambush Ashling near Kinscaer, in exchange for being finally given the Crescent afterwards. The ambush nearly fails, Ashling is defeated only by the intervention of Oona, who wants her power for herself, but Maralen manages to beat her to it. Sygg's crew suffers serious injuries. After that, Maralen reveals that she is not planning to give the Crescent back, instead she intends to keep in and unite the power of two greater elementals, fire and water, in herself. Sygg leaves threatening, never given the Crescent back.
Rey cegador
The Reaper King is the most powerful of the animated scarecrows in the world of Shadowmoor. His origin is unknown; some speculate he was once a normal scarecrow created by a kithkin cobblesmith that somehow gained sentience and resentment for his makers, growing in size and strength and taking in other animate scarecrows under his twisted aegis.
Thelon de Havenwood
Thelon of Havenwood was an elvish druid from Sarpadia during the Fallen Empires period of Dominaria's Dark Age. As conventional foods such as fruit and animals were becoming increasingly scarce due to the changes in climate following the Sylex Blast, Thelon made it his task to find a new food source. He found that the only things that were successfully growing were fungus, which he decided to vigorously cultivate using green mana and a method similar to that which the Order of the Ebon Hand used create the thrulls.[1] Calling them thallids, they were raised like cattle to produce saprolings for food.

Thrun, the Last Troll is a troll who protected the outcast Melira during the Mirrans' fight for Mirrodin against the Phyrexians.
Like all the trolls of Mirrodin, Thrun is a wise and knowledgeable creature. He is among the last surviving Mirrans who knows of the heroic victory of Glissa Sunseeker over the tyranical rule of Memnarch, and the only troll left after The Vanishing. Even before the Phyrexian compleation, he was already aware of the inevitable corruption of the plane, and yet he never spoke of it to anyone, a decision that he would later regret. Thrun decided to wallow in his sadness, alone, until he discovered an infant in the jungle whom he later called Melira. He then learned that she and her unique ability may be the key for the plane's survuval.

Seton, protector krosano
Seton was a Centaur druid from the Krosan forest. He was also a talented warrior and so was sent to Cabal City by Thriss to investigate the source of the magical disturbances centred there. In his pit-fights he relied primarily on the natural strength and speed of his race to overpower his opponents, although his druidic training meant that he was also a capable green magic-user. Whilst he could appear savage and wild in combat, he also had a wise and contemplative side to his personality that earned him the respect of many of his fellow fighters. His personal philosophy for the pits was that they embodied the system of survival of the fittest and that therefore if he lost, it was simply part of the natural cycle.
He first met the barbarian warrior Kamahl in a pit-fight, where the two became good friends after they teamed up to defeat a powerful dementia creature and Kamahl saved the centaur's life. When Kamahl left pit-fighting behind to pursue the Mirari, Seton aided him, knowing it was the source of the disturbance he had been sent to investigate. the pair tracked its bearer, Lieutenant Kirtar, to Krosa, where the aven commander was insanely attacking the forest. There, Seton and Kamahl also encountered ambassador Laquatus' bodyguard, Turg, who attacked them. Seton wrestled with the anurid warrior and almost bested him, but Turg intentionally vomited in Seton's face, nearly blinding the centaur with his acidic bile. As a result, Seton had to stay in Krosa to recover while Kamahl continued to track the Mirari.
Much later, Seton would cross Kamahl's path again after the barbarian, in a fit of Mirari-induced rage, near-lethally stabbed his sister Jeska. While Kamahl journeyed to the center of Krosa in order to gain control of himself and get rid of the Mirari, he left his sister in Seton's care, where the centaur used his druidic knowledge to try to heal her. However, when Kamahl returned to the centaur's home he found that Seton had been murdered and Jeska abducted by the Cabal forces that had pursued him led by Braids.
Lin Sivvi, Defiant Hero
Liin Sivi (the spelling used on cards was Lin Sivvi) was the daughter of the elderly leader of the Vec tribe on Rath in the time leading up to the Phyrexian Invasion. She was amongst the most skilled warriors of the Vec and an expert in the use of the tribe's traditional weapon, the toten-vec or Lashknife. Following the disorder that resulted from Volrath's disappearance, she led a group of rebels into the Stronghold with Eladamri, hoping to destroy the Predator. The plan failed, but Sivvi and Eladamri used Belbe's personal portal to get to Dominaria along with Starke's daughter, Takara, whom they rescued from the dungeons of the Stronghold.
They arrived near Llanowar and began preparing the locals for the coming invasion. Eladamri became a uniter of peoples during the invasion, Sivvi ever at his side. The warriors' respect between the two blossomed into an ill-fated love over the year of the war; they chose to end their lives together rather than be killed by Yawgmoth when the lord of Phyrexia came to Dominaria himself.
Crosis, the purger
Crosis was one of the five Primeval Dragons. His name meant "death" in the ancient draconic language, and he was known as "The Purger." Crosis was a jet-black dragon who would slay his enemies by screaming the word of death, which caused anyone that heard it to instantly die. Crosis was imprisoned in a tar pit in Urborg by the Numena Kuberr, but was freed thousands of years later by the other four Primevals, who sacrificed themselves to release him. Upon doing so, Crosis resurrected the others, completing the pantheon.
Crosis was trapped again soon afterwards following the deaths of Rith and Rhammidarigaaz. The loss of those two weakened the remaining three Primevals, neutering Crosis' word of death. Realising that Crosis was vulnerable, Captain Sisay rammed theWeatherlight into the dragon, driving him back into his tar pit prison.
