Ugin, the spirit dragon, is one of the 3 planes walkers that sealed the Eldrazi. He is probably the multi-verse's foremost expert on the eldrazi. Before the mending, Bolas used his +3 to defeat him and tortured the information on the Eldrazi out of him. Ugin died shortly there-after. Except he didn't, because Sarkhan Vol used Ugin's Nexus to travel back in time! Wizards doesn't take character death lightly because they want deaths to be meaningful, so don’t expect this type of stuff to happen whenever they feel like bringing a character back to life [1]. Ugin's home is Tarkir.
Morph
Ugin taught morph magic to humans, to help them not get wiped out by dragons. So not a total bag of dicks like most MTG dragons (Looking at you Bolas).
Balance
Ugin is an environmentalist. He likes the ecosystem to be balanced, even to the extent he advocated sealing the eldrazi instead of killing preserve any ecological balance they might be a part of. He thinks both humans and Dragons are important in Tarkir.
In Play
As everyone expected, Ugin is the second colorless planeswalker to be printed by WotC. He has 3 abilities. His +2 bolts (well, actually ghost fires) a target creature or player. His -X is a excellent board sweeper (unless the permanents your opponent cares about are colorless, so pretty useless against affinity) but also a double edged sword, if you aren't careful you can end up hosing your own dudes. Then again, they probably have an empty board and you probably still have a planeswalker. And his ultimate, a −10, is almost the exact opposite of Nicol Bolas's ultimate. With Ugin's ultimate you get to gain 7 life, draw 7 cards, and then cheat up to 7 permanents onto the battlefield. He is expensive at 8 generic mana but any half decent ramp deck can push him out fairly quickly. The fact that he is colorless and can integrate in any deck is also a major boon.
