[QUOTE="Charlaquin, post: 8887053, member: 6779196"] What it allows you to do is publish printed or printable media that includes content covered by the license (presumably anything in the eventual 1D&D SRD) alongside original content of your own. To do so, you would be required to register with D&D Beyond and submit personal information and a description of the content you intended to publish to WotC for approval. They would be able to, at any time or for any reason, tell you to change or take down that content, and you would have 30 days to comply. If you wanted to do any crowdfunding for it, it would have to be through Kickstarter. If you made enough money from this content, you would have to start reporting your revenue from that content to WotC annually, and potentially pay them royalties. They would be allowed to use any content you published under this agreement in any way they want, without having to give you any notice or pay you any money. Your agreement to these terms would be perpetual and irrevocable. If someome sued you for something related to that content and WotC thought you weren’t doing a good enough job defending yourself, they could get their lawyers to step in, and you’d have to pay their fees. Also, WotC would be able to change any of these terms at any time for any reason, and by agreeing to publish under the above terms, you would have waved any right to participate in a class-action lawsuit against them.
