(This set is inspired by reading astrophysics and watching cosmos.)
Existence, has come to an end. At the edge of the Multiverse, the most ancient plane, Equilor, has reached the boundary of reality. Now, the weight of infinite planes will crash upon one another and collapse into nothingness, unless a greater force can stop it. But the question is not if it can, but will it?

It's always irked me that in the expanse of the entire multiverse we can travel through infinity but we still always end up in a place very much like where we come from. So using some astrophysics concepts I tried to imagine as best as I could what it would be like at the end of time and beyond, then interpret that into cards. Here's what I got.
Black Tribe - Brainoids(working title), Possible creature types - Brain, Eye, Arm, Leg, Heart, Parasite among others
The heat death of the Multiverse is imminent, but this is not the first time it's happened and the Brainoids like it that way. Being outside of time, a little thing like the winking of existence doesn't matter much to them, in fact, it makes things better because they get a new stock of lifeforms to farm new knowledge from. The last few iterations of reality had cultured little of value. Maybe this time, they'll have some new knowledge to eat. They grow so tired of the monotony.
The brainoids control everything, and basically noone knows. They're like The Silence from Doctor Who mixed with the Flying Brains from Futurama. They're ambivalent to everything and they actually keep existence in proper working order, by "maintaining the status quo" so to say, so I'm going to consider them to be the protagonists for now. Sure, they suck thoughts, but it doesn't hurt much and what you don't know doesn't hurt you.
Sample Card
Spiral Arm 3B
Tribal Artifact - Arm (U)
~ can attack as though it were
a creature.
~ doesn't die from having 0 or
less toughness. (Lethal damage
still kills it.)
4/0
Red tribe - The Whims, Possible Creature types - Incarnation, Illusion, Serpent, Efreet, Elder, Orb
The Whims have grown uneasy. The expansion of the Multiverse has caused its great filaments to weaken and they will tear soon. That doesn't pose a threat to them, but the countless eons are never enough time for them to explore the endless possibilities of infinite improbability. The most improbable event has yet to occur, and they're so close, if they can keep things going just a little longer...
Basically, the Whims are like the Infinite Consortium if Q was in charge, and they were inside the Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy universe. They control fusion and keep stars burning. They crash things together to see what happens. If something new and cool happens in the universe, they probably had something to do with it. After all, what good is an infinite playground if you never use it?
Sample Card
Red Orb 6R
Creature - Elder Orb (U)
Whenever you’re dealt damage, add
that much R to your mana pool and
destroy Red Orb.
4/6
Green Tribe - Panmordial Agregate Possible creature types Serpent, Juggernaut, Ooze, Construct, Reflection
The Panmordial Agregate is/are all the leftover matter from the beginning of time to the end, that has been ground against eternity into a slurry of sub-particles, the building block of existence. Completely unordered(for now), everywhere, and alive, in a sense. More accurately, it mimics life because it was/is all of life, and all of life was/is it. All the possibilities that ever have been or ever will be (in this reality) have existed within it, then been deconstructed and returned to the Agregate.
Sample Card
Panmordial Agregate 1G
Creature World - Ooze Construct(R)
All permanents are Ooze Construct permanents.
Whenever a nontoken 1/1 dies, put a time counter
on Panmordial Agregate and put a 2/2 green Ooze
Construct creature token onto the battlefield.
When ~ dies, put X X/X green Serpent Juggernaut
creature tokens onto the battlefield, where X is
the number of time counters on Panmordial Agregate.
