Shark

Shark is a creature type that is used for Magic cards that depict fish with a cartilaginous skeleton, five to seven-gill slits on the sides of the head, and pectoral fins that are not fused to the head. 
==History==
The first card with the type was <c>Giant Shark</c> from The Dark. Thereafter the creature type merged into Fish with the Grand Creature Type Update, and all following sharks had that type (e.g. <c>Hammerhead Shark</c>, <c>Shambleshark</c>, <c>Sharktocrab</c>). 
Shark was re-introduced as a creature type in Ikoria: Lair of Behemoths with <c>Voracious Greatshark</c>, <c>Pouncing Shoreshark</c>, <c>Shabraz, the Skyshark</c> and <c>Shark Typhoon</c>. Seven older cards received errata.
Aetherdrift; introduced shark-folk that continued the discard/draw theme from Brallin and Shabraz.
==Storyline==
===Avishkar===
Chordatans are humanoid sharks now endemic to Avishkar's coastal regions, having arrived via an instanced Omenpath to find themselves immediately atop the food chain. Perhaps a consequence of fate (or the outcome of some unknown multiversal mechanism), chordatans have a strong affinity for aether, so arriving on Avishkar has catapulted them to the apex of their potential. They describe their perception of aether as a call to adventure, power, speed, and glory. An invigorating substance, aether in all its forms is important in chordatan rituals, and liquid aether is used as fuel in their aethercycles.
