There's a new Unearthed Arcana in town! "The bard receives a new Bardic College feature: the College of Eloquence. Additionally, the paladin gains a new Sacred Oath feature: the Oath of Heroism."
Who?
In fairness, I was being facetious. I don't think Karn is a character they'd put in a book title, because only people really into MtG even know who he is.What a square man, l
Karn is an artificial construct who gained a Planeswalker spark, he can travel between planes in MtG.
I hope if the do a mixed MtG Planes/Manual of the Planes Book, I hope they go into how these different cosmologies, MtG and D&D fit together, like Eberron's Planar chapter (which is likely a test bed for this sort of thing).

I want to see a female NPC on the damn title and cover of a 5e book, but I'd prefer one whose history in the game didn't start last year.
I mean...I guess? Why her over the more well known Chandra, though?Jaya Ballard?
Because Chandra's a young upstart and Jaya is old school, she's had plenty of time to actually go out and see lots of different planes.I mean...I guess? Why her over the more well known Chandra, though?
It could be any Planeswalker in the end, but a member of the Gateswatch would be ideal, IMO.
They Chandra is quite familiar with the planes, and more importantly is a character non MtG players have heard of and seen on promotional stuff.Because Chandra's a young upstart and Jaya is old school, she's had plenty of time to actually go out and see lots of different planes.
Maybe both...? Grand unified Setting Theory?
I would suggest Leliana. After her epic come back in War of the Spark, she would be an interesting female voice for a setting guide, if a little darker than other possibilities like Nyssa and Chandra.They Chandra is quite familiar with the planes, and more importantly is a character non MtG players have heard of and seen on promotional stuff.
I'd be fine with a Gate Watch Guide to The Planes, but putting a single character in the title demands as much familiarity as possible. Also, Chandra is more fun. I'd rather read sidebars and foot notes in her voice.
