Worldsoul

A Worldsoul is the aware essence of a plane in Magic: The Gathering.
==Description==
A worldsoul is aware of the going-on on its surface and can be hurt by magical means. It can manifest itself in avatars and elementals. The planeswalker Nissa Revane has been known to talk to the worldsoul of Zendikar and Amonkhet, while the worldsouls of Innistrad, Ravnica and Kaladesh posed difficulties to her (Innistrad due to Nahiri's cryptoliths, Ravnica due to its heavy urbanization and Kaladesh due to its unfamiliar Aether cycle).
===Alara===
On Alara, Progenitus is the avatar of the worldsoul.
===Amonkhet===
Nissa Revane was able to contact Amonkhet's soul and learned that it suffered under a terrible curse. It reacted with hostility to her.
===Dominaria===
Gaea is the worldsoul of Dominaria. She carries a hatred caused by the numerous cataclysms inflicted on the plane throughout its history.
===Innistrad===
Innistrad's worldsoul acted hostile to Nissa Revane.
===Ixalan===
Huatli stated that "speaking with Zacama was engaging with the soul of the plane itself." This implies that Zacama may be the Worldsoul of Ixalan or a manifestation thereof.
===Kaladesh===
Nissa felt that Kaladesh is structured. Cyclical. Its soul might be represented by the Great Conduit.
===Kaldheim===
On the March of the Machine card <c>Pyre of the World Tree</c>, the World Tree is referred to as "the soul of [the warriors of Kaldheim's] world," implying it may serve as the Worldsoul of all of Kaldheim's realms.
===Kamigawa===
O-Kagachi is the very first kami, as old as the plane itself.
*His offspring is Kyodai, Soul of Kamigawa
===Ravnica===
The Dryads of the Selesnya Conclave are believed to be in contact with the worldsoul in hiding, Mat'Selesnya.
===Serra's Realm===
Urza collapsed Serra's Realm's worldsoul into the Weatherlight's powerstone core, giving it enough power to travel the planes.
===Zendikar===
Nissa Revane, the "Worldwaker", can communicate with Zendikar's soul. Ashaya, the "Awoken World", was its elemental manifestation.
===Plane-less worldsouls===
After the destruction of a plane, its essence or soul survives as an entity that can attach itself to other planes or to planeswalkers. Two such entities, (the Bog Entity and Davriel's Entity) were encountered on Innistrad.Brandon Sanderson (2018). "Children of the Nameless". Wizards of the Coast.Children of the Nameless AMA
