[QUOTE="gyor, post: 7761983, member: 6670153"] So use some of the monsters and NPCs, or use a different aspect of the guild as inspiration, they are very broad. One idea, maybe a village has temple dedicated to a rogue Deathpact Angel, who has trained an order of clerics to serve her and worship and help create new Deathpact Angels. And it seems evil at first, but maybe she eliminated a threat to the village, and the magic she taught her order of clerics helped stop plague the village was suffering from, and the magic has helped ths village propster and converts from missiinary work is helping the village to grow. Or you in your travels stumble into a strange war between Felidar and Hell Hounds, celestial cats vs. fiendish dogs, and you have to make sense of strange war. Maybe you refluff Thrulls as beautiful instead of ugly and create a bit of an altered carbon type story, where the ghosts of a dead village possess the bodies of their beautiful Thrull servants, but are always searching for bodies that would make for good new Thrulls, both as servants, and hosts. Maybe you use Rakdos' stats as the stats of a simular demon lord 5e hasn't gotten to yet. Maybe you use the Orzhov guild as a basic template for a government, but you replace the ghost council with the angel Aurelia as a Archangel Queen. Maybe you make the Purple Dragon (renamed Angel Knights) Knight Subclass from the SCAG her elite guards. Or maybe you just toss random horrors and undead and insects from the book into a simple dungeon crawl. Maybe you reuse Sunhome into the Palace of an Ancient Gold Dragon King, fill it will younger gold and silver dragons and dragonborn, and then use Niv Mizzet stat block as a new villian and have him attack with some red dragons and what dragons this book has. Maybe any new contracts and weirds in the book find themselves being used in Lantan in FR. Maybe another setting invades Ravnica, like the Wizards of Thay stumble upon a spell that creates of portal to Ravnica and they try and take over. Or the Gods of say Greyhawk discover Ravnica and start sending visions to the Guileless, and these new converts distrupt the established guild religions and the lingering faiths the predate the guild system. Maybe a Rakdos cultist bungles a dark rite and instead summons the Demon Lords from Out of the Abyss into Ravnica's Old City and they send Ravnica's old order into choas. Maybe the party sparks and planeswalkers using the Amonkemt rules to Ravnica, learn it's secrets of magic and then return to their home world to use it's magic to conquer the world. Or maybe you adapt Kenko's Way intro adventure to Waterdeep. Maybe you combine the Order Domain clerics with the Ghostwise Halflings from the SCAG and create a order of Halfling hivemind clerics. Or you use the Kraul, including the winged Kraul as a tyrantical race that has taken over your world enslaving everyone else and you are part of a rebellion against the Krual. Or maybe using the Guild rules as a template, you create new Ravnica Guilds, rebel guilds, using out backgrounds as the features. Or your evil heroes are up against an army of Devas riding on Felidar mounts. And that is what I just thought up now before reading the actual book. [/QUOTE]
