Hi! One small question about Ravnica flavour I can’t find anywhere exactly: What is the faith of the Orzhov about? Do they have a god, or do they worship wealth and power, or they worship post-life…? I will DM a RPG in the scenario! They don’t have a god; their “faith” revolves around the equation of sin with monetary debt. Not metaphorically (“forgive us our debts”), but literally.

Ravnica


Would you use Kobold or Lizardfolk stats for a Viashino PC?
I’d go with lizardfolk. #wotcstaff

Do you have any suggestions for playing a character in Ravnica guilds?
Hey James. Our playgroup will soon be playing in a Ravnica campaign. Do you have any suggestions for playing a character in one of those guilds, that doesn’t just tend toward a linear character who follows the beliefs of their guild? The traits/ideals/bonds/flaws give some pointers in that direction. The other PCs, if they’re in different guilds, will give a lot more! #wotcstaff

Noticed an error in the Guildmaster’s Guide to Ravnica: the weight calculation is not accurate
@mikemearls @JeremyECrawford noticed an error in the Guildmaster's Guide to Ravnica… I do not believe the weight calculation is accurate, unless a 6'8" Vedalken is supposed to weight 650 punds #dnd #math pic.twitter.com/RvdBjKTFxb

The artificer is still on track to reappear in Unearthed Arcana this month. It’s going to be the last week. We’ll let you know when it’s out. Great to see so much anticipation! #DnD https://t.co/3C3j49BPN2

Ravnica doesn’t fit the 5e mold because it is based on Magic the Gathering
You made such an informative Dragon Talk on planes and worlds, explaining how assumptions changed between editions and everything, no sarcasm here, and now we have a book that doesn't fit the 5e mold because it is based on M:tG. Not the end of the world, but a bit annoying.

I'm curious how you think Ravnica doesn't fit the mold.
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) February 1, 2019
… If I remember the interview correctly, you said that early D&D assumed all its campaign settings to be part of the same cosmos. Then there was a time when D&D moved away from that concept and, for example, Eberron was designed as its own separate work of fiction. But now…5e is going back to the original idea of a shared cosmos, and you even talked with Keith Baker about a way to reconcile the Orrery with the Great Wheel. The result, you said, was a story about the Progenitors wanting a world of their own, with its own planes, and managing…
— Millstone85 (@Stonemill1985) February 1, 2019
… a similar story for it? Or should it simply be regarded as a part of the M:tG cosmos, now presented under the 5e D&D ruleset, but unrelated to 5e D&D lore?
… to shield their creation from the larger cosmos. At a DM’s discretion, that shield could finally break under the pressure, starting a “gold rush” for beings of the Great Wheel, such as devils from the Nine Hells. I really liked that idea.
But what about Ravnica? Is there… That's how I think it doesn't fit the mold. But don't get me wrong, GGtR is a great book.

Pathways between multiverses exist in D&D. For an example of people traveling from one multiverse to another, check out the Acquisitions Incorporated sessions I've DMed. The characters go from the Forgotten Realms to Ravnica and meet an NPC, Vi, who travels between those worlds.

Ravnica was “the Coruscant of D&D” but I always thought Sigil was Coruscant?
Question 4 @Gregtito ! Need clarification from both @JeremyECrawford and @ChrisPerkinsDnD at #PAXSouth #Ravnica was "the Coruscant of D&D" but I ALWAYS thought Sigil was Coruscant? so far all 5E Cosmology has been "inclusive" of old #DnD , this seems like the first "update"? pic.twitter.com/EVV0t4OXkk

Wait. When did Sigil get world sized? The Donut is certainly big, yet I only got a big city vibe. Not this is a Ring World size. Could probably walk the circumfrence in a day or so.
— Trevor Bailey (@TJBailey1978) January 29, 2019
In fantasy, a world isn't necessarily a planet. A world doesn't have a minimum or a maximum size, and a magic-driven world might follow few of Earth's physical laws.
A fantasy world is the size it needs to be, perhaps as tiny as the Little Prince's wee realm. #DnD https://t.co/SpPZTjNaJc

I'm a little confused about how Sigil fits in with the current cosmology. Is it back to being the fulcrum for the Great Wheel? Also, how is it a 'world'? I thought it was a sub-region at the centre of the Outlands plane? Or was that also messed up with the Spellplague?
— Dungeon Master's Workshop (@DMsWorkshop) January 30, 2019
Curious about the D&D cosmos and how Sigil fits into it? Ch. 2 of the "Dungeon Master's Guide" details the multiverse and describes Sigil's enduring place at its center, where it's a ring-shaped island in the sky of the Outlands and the autonomous domain of the Lady of Pain. #DnD https://t.co/wkyB65WgCn

Ravnica is the first actual planet in D&D that is covered by a city. Sigil is a torus shaped city on one of the planes, it isn't actually a world or planet. Sigil may be like Coruscant as a hub but Ravnica is like Coruscant in that it is a globe-spanning city.
— Manny B. (@techjunkie30) January 31, 2019
Some worlds/planes in Magic are planets and some aren't. Ravnica hasn't been designated a planet.
"World" has no technical meaning in D&D. We often use it to refer to realms in the Material Plane, but that's not the word's only use in the game. #DnD https://t.co/ztq65VK4Qh
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) January 31, 2019
Planet or not, Sigil is more like Coruscant in how it functions, Ravnica is more like it in that the world (there is an official link below that calls it that) is covered by the city. We do, indeed, call Ravnica a world.

What happens when a wizard on Ravnica casts “Plane Shift”? Is there a cosmology?
As far as the Guildmaster’s Guide is concerned, Ravnica is part of the D&D cosmology so the spell works as written. If you want to situate your D&D game in the Magic multiverse, you can alter that. Plane Shift: Amonkhet has some explorations of Magic Planeswalking. #wotcstaff
