Ravnica and the DMGuild...

Cyber-Dave · Nov 17, 2018

Does anyone know why the Dungeon Master Guild doesn't allow us to submit Ravnica based content? I just finished up creating a Ravnican Vampire, Fledgling PC race. Considering how weak Ravnican vampires are compared to the usual D&D settings, and considering how easy it is to imagine a PC vampire concept for House Dimir or the Syndicate, I am a little surprised they didn't include playable PC vampires in the book. Still, it gave me an opportunity to be creative, so I won't complain. Sadly, I'm not sure if it is legal to upload it to the guild...

Apparently, it’s coming. They probably have some left over material/Guild Adept content they’re going to post as part of the expansion. it’s a theory at least....

Ari Levitch has said they will have it on the DMsGuild, but details are still forthcoming.

They announced on twitter that Ravnica will be on DMs Guild, I'm presuming it's after the Amazon/general release date.

I can only hope that it will be part of a general lifting of setting exclusions. It is absolutely ridiculous to consider that you could adapt classic D&D material for use with 5e as long as you set it in a Magic the Gathering world, but updating it for 5e in its native D&D setting would remain forbidden.

Setting generic is open, too.

As others have said, the official release date is not until tomorrow. They work from the official release date and not the early preview date game stores get the book.

It's going to be interesting to see what people put out for this.

The number of creators that are familiar with both 5e and MtG:Ravinca isn't that big.
