Dear Lonis, 
I tried to find references for your Lamplight Crab in the archives. It seems none of those exist anywhere. Although I did find these other 
entries which might be of interest to 
you?

## Azor I

Known as the Arbiter of Law and the first Supreme Judge, Azor is the parun of the Azorius Senate. He came from another world to restore the chaos on the plane of Ravnica. As an immensely powerful lawmage, hieromancer, and sphinx, he deems himself to be the perfect judge. His word is law and everyone should be grateful for his attention.

***The Guildpact.*** Azor wrote and casted one of the most powerful and complex spells in the multiverse: the Guildpact. He managed to convince the other guild paruns to collaborate to create, in his mind, the perfect government system. However, Azor suddenly vanished and the guilds were left with their own interpretations of the pact. 
The guilds made their own plans and began scheming to get as much power as possible. Although the pact held together, which resulted in relative peace, none of them could get rid of the intricate and unbreakable bindings. This meant they became stuck in their tasks as stipulated by the pact which became more and more extreme with no way to escape. Only a delicate balance remained where one small thread might snap it all.

#### Azor's Traits
**Ideal:** "The law is sacred."
 
**Bond:** "Every world and creature should be able to live in a perfectly attuned society."
 
**Flaw:** "My systems are perfect. If they break, the fault lies with those that are not worthy of such a gift."

\columnbreak

***Absolution of the Guildpact.*** In the original pact, there was one loophole. House Dimir was a guild hidden in secrecy, where no other guild might reveal their existence to the populace. They were meant to keep the other guilds in check and test strength of the Guildpact. The Boros, on the other hand, were tasked to protect the Guilpact (and Ravnica) against any perceived danger. When Szadek feigned to be a danger for the pact, the Boros Wojek Agrus Kos was bound to publicly arrest him and out the Dimir. This broke the pact and the world of Ravnica fell into chaos again.

***The Implicit Maze.*** Still, even when the pact broke, not all was lost for the guilds. Azor created a contingency plan: the Implicit Maze. If the guilds could work together, the Guildpact could be restored. With careful planning and intrigue, Jace Beleren, a mindmage and planewalker, managed to keep all guildmasters away from this power and solved the maze. Some balance was restored, but it means this person needs to stay on Ravnican soil.

***The Immortal Sun.***
Azor is associated with creating the Immortal Sun, a very powerful artifact that is rumored to have the power of an empire, command over nature, and eternal life. It is even said it can pull other creatures from across the multiverse through the blind eternities. Its less known purpose is to deny planeswalkers from traveling away, essentially trapping them on a plane. However, it is said that Azor never use it and the knowledge of its whereabouts might be hidden away by the Azorius.

## Beasts
Even though civilization is dominating the Ravnican landscape, beasts are still thriving all over the plane. From the large Indrik and Ceratok packbeasts in the streets, to the small rats in the Undercity, to the primal hunters in the Rubblebelt. When people look around, they are everywhere.

### Mossdog
Mossdogs are large dogs-like animals with vines and fungi growing on their backs. Hunters of the sewers and night, they are trained by the Golgari as guardians and loyal pets.

### Spy Bug
Dimir spies are not always able to listen to every conversation or get into every building. To circumvent this inconvenience, they use the tiny spy bugs. These are magically enhanced insects that can record everything they see and hear, which can then later be retrieved by their owner. They are also equipped with a poisonous needle to remove any problematic adversaries. Essential for any well executed spy job.

### Swarm of Hell Rats
Hell Rats are attracted to the carnival leftovers of the Rakdos. The rats can be found anywhere where they can cleanup some body parts of a slaughterhouse party or from an exploding performance.

### Ilharg, the Raze-Boar
According to the Old Ways of the Gruul, the awakening of Ilharg is the first revelation of the End-Raze, the apocalypse that will end all civilization and return Ravnica to its primal state. Ilharg's hoofs will trample down every brick of the city and its flaming roar will burn down the citadels out of the skies. All the the while warbands will crush any leftover resistance.

It is believed that Ilharg is only the beginning of the End-Raze and other animal gods will follow, such as Kashath the Stalker. However, the Zhur-Taa Clan is very secretive about their religious revelations and prepare themselves for unknown events that still need to unfold.

***Immortal Nature.*** Because of a divine power within Ilharg, he doesn't require food, drink, or sleep.

#### Ilharg's Traits
**Ideal:** "Raze down all civilization so nature can return." 
**Bond:** "The primal wilds were the ideal environment for life to function." 
**Flaw:** "I will only act when the End-Raze has begun."

> ***End-Raze (Mythic Trait; Recharges after a Short or Long Rest).*** If Ilharg is reduced to 0 hit points, he doesn't die or fall unconscious. Instead, he regains 300 hit points. In addition, Ilharg summons three creatures from the Gruul Monster list (see chapter 3 of this book), with a maximum total of 8,400 XP, to announce the End-Raze. These creatures magically form in unoccupied spaces within 300 feet of Ilharg and obey his commands until they are destroyed or until he dismisses them as an action.

> ***Legendary Resistance (3/Day).*** If Ilharg fails a saving throw, he can choose to succeed instead.
>
> ***Magic Resistance.*** Ilharg has advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects.
>
> ***Magic Weapons.*** Ilharg's weapon attacks are magical.
>
> ***Relentless Raze (Only active during the End-Raze).*** If damage reduces Ilharg to 0 hit points, he must make a Constitution saving throw with a DC of 5 + the damage taken, unless the damage is from a critical hit or if there are no allies within 120 feet. On a success, he drops to 1 hit point instead.
>
> ***Siege Monster.*** Ilharg deals double damage to objects and structures.
>
> ***Trampling Charge.*** If Ilharg moves at least 20 feet straight toward a creature on its turn and then hits it with a tusk attack, that target must succeed on a DC 24 Strength saving throw or be stunned until the end of its next turn. If the target is stunned, Ilharg can make one stomp attack against it as a bonus action. 
> 
> ### Actions
> ***Multiattack.*** Ilharg makes three tusk attacks.
>
> ***Tusk.*** *Melee Weapon Attack:* +16 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. *Hit:* 16 (3d4 + 9) slashing damage.

>
> ***Fire Breath (Recharge 5–6).*** Ilharg exhales fire in a 90-foot cone. Each creature in that area must make a DC 22 Dexterity saving throw, taking 91 (26d6) fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
>
> ### Legendary Actions
> Ilharg can take 3 legendary actions, choosing from the options below. Only one legendary action can be used at a time and only at the end of another creature's turn. Ilharg regains spent legendary actions at the start of its turn.
>
> ***Move.*** Ilharg moves up to half its speed without provoking attacks of opportunity.
>
> ***Tusk.*** Ilharg makes one tusk attack.
>
> ***Raze the City (Costs 3 Actions).*** Each allied creature within 120 feet of Ilharg may use its reaction to move up to half its speed toward a creature or structure that it can see, provided it isn't already within 5 feet of that target. It then may make one melee attack against that target if it is able to do so.
>
> ### Mythic Actions
> If Ilharg's Relentless Rage trait is active, he can use the options below as legendary actions.
>
> ***Stomp.*** Ilharg makes one stomp attack.
>
> ***Crushing Roar (Costs 2 Actions).*** Ilharg emits a thunderous sound wave in a 30-foot cone. Each creature in that area must make a DC 22 Constitution saving throw, taking 21 (6d6) thunder damage on a failed save and be knocked prone. Buildings and other structures start to crumble down and take full damage.
>
> ***Divine Core (Costs 3 Actions).*** Ilharg can choose one object within 120 feet that is not naturally grown or formed. The object will momentarily heat up and glow red-hot. Any creature in physical contact with the object takes 13 (3d8) fire damage.
If a creature is standing on, holding or wearing the object and takes damage from it, the creature must succeed on a DC 22 Constitution saving throw or drop the object if it can. If it doesn't drop the object, it has disadvantage on attack rolls and ability checks until the start of Ilharg's next turn.

## Constructs

Ravnica is a plane with highly advanced technology. Electricity and plumbing is widely used by most of the guilds and many of them even use mechanically driven constructs, going as far to rely on them for their daily needs. In this section, some constructs are listed than can be found patrolling the streets all day and night.

***Constructed Nature.*** A construct doesn't require air, food, drink, or sleep.

### Boros Skyship
To support the sky theater of the skyjecs and giant floating citadels, the Boros use skyships to quickly deploy soldiers anywhere on the battlefield. They can also be used to scout unknown territories and catch unsuspecting perpetrators in the night.

### Mizzium Tank
Mizzium can be used for anything, so why not for a self-thinking tank? The adaptable metal has a very sturdy protection against sudden impacts and can quickly be molten into hot explosions.

### Pavement Sweeper
It is unclear who makes these cleaning constructs that can be found all across the city. It is certain that the streets would be a lot more filthy without them. The sweepers roam endlessly, scrubbing away the refuse and anything else too slow or too clumsy to get out of their way.

### Spy Thopter
The more tensions develop between the guilds, the more the Azorius ramps up their surveillance. The Lyev column already has the power to arrest suspects in the act, but now they don't even need to be present in person.

The skyship is incapacitated without a pilot or while in the area of an antimagic field and will crash down while in the air. Creatures on the ground at the area of impact must make a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw or take 11 (2d10) bludgeoning damage. 
> A creature can use its bonus action to speak the skyship's command word to control and pilot it. Without a command word the creature must make a DC 18 Intelligence check or the skyship will act as if inside the area of an antimagic field.
>

## Deathless Collector

</div>

The Obzedat need a way to ensure the collection of all
             the outstanding debts of their debtors. Usually this
             goes without any problems, most citizens are too
        afraid to not pay. When it gets a bit more challenging,
      there are enforcers or giants that can be sent to the
     offenders. However, there are still some that manage to
     flee or hide from their obligations. This is when the
   Deathless Collectors come into play. As even just their presence will cause a whole neighbourhood to suffer from any small infractions against the Orzhov, they are seldomly seen outside the Orzhov crypts. It is said they can find a debtor by just tasting a sample of their blood.

A creature must succeed on a DC 18 Constitution saving throw or its hit point maximum is reduced by an amount equal to the damage taken. A creature dies if its hit point maximum is reduced to 0. This reduction to a creature's hit point maximum lasts until the creature finishes a long rest.

## Izzet Djinn

Djinni are very powerful elemental forces. They 
are one of the few denizens on Ravnica that are 
able to go toe to toe with dragons. They were 
deemed so dangerous that their power was 
restricted by the Guildpact itself. The few Djinni 
still alive are mostly used by the Izzet as forced 
laborers in the polar districts where they are restricted 
by the cold. Now and then, a Djinn will show up in 
another district, where they are often mistaken for a 
natural disaster instead of a living entity.

## Living Structures

Living Structures are large animated vines and branches with parts of buildings inside of them. They are often utilized for blunt work when the normal workforce and army are at their limit. They are animated by druids and shamans of the Selesnya Conclave and Gruul Clans. While using similar rituals, the results are vastly different. Selesnya elementals are usually in harmony with the temples and terraces built on them, while Gruul elementals are more chaotic and incorporate rubble and other parts they can find from within the Rubblebelt.

***Conjured by Magic.*** A ritual of 24 hours with a summoning circle of at least five druids containing one or more **Conclave Dryads**, **Druids of the Old Ways**, or **Woodshapers** are necessary to summon a living structure.

***Elemental Nature.*** A living structure doesn't require air, food, drink, or sleep.

### Rubble Elementals
Rubble elementals are animated by Gruul druids and shamans for retribution against other guilds. They can move through earth without giving away its presence to suddenly appear and turn over all the pavements of a road. They are great for assaults in crowded and narrow spaces.

### Temple Elementals
Creatures such as Wayfaring Temples, Grove Guardians, and Risen Sanctuaries all fall under the category of temple elementals. Most of them are grown and constructed around a Selesnya vernandi where they can be animated for protection. Others are the main temple of a vernandi itself where a dryad resides for spiritual guidance. No matter their location, any Guild should think twice before approaching Selesnya sanctuaries, lest they be crushed under the elemental's mighty branches.

Each creature in that line must make a DC 19 Dexterity saving throw. On a failure, a target takes 34 (6d8 + 7) bludgeoning damage and is flung up 20 feet away from the rubble elemental and knocked prone.
If the saving throw is successful, the target takes half the bludgeoning damage and isn't flung away or knocked prone. 
The affected area becomes difficult terrain.

#### Customizing a Living Structure
All living structures are made for a specific purpose, 
even elementals as large as Vitu-Ghazi. Roll for a 
feature appropriate to their function, or consider 
choosing one for your story. Perhaps some Selesnyan 
druids want to cleanse impurities within their district 
and they have need for an elemental to tear down 
buildings, or maybe Gruul shamans try to protect their 
hunting grounds with stealthy elementals burrowed 
arround in the soil.

##### Features
| d4 | Feature |
|:----:|:-------------|
| 1 | ***Masonry Layer*** There are large stones and structures incorporated into the elemental for a sturdier defense, increasing its armor class by 2.  |
| 2 | ***District Destroyer*** The elemental is specifically made to destroy every building in its path, leaving unstable rubble behind. When a creature moves into or within difficult terrain created by the elemental, it takes 7 (2d6) piercing damage for every 5 feet it travels.  |
| 3 | ***Sacred Protector*** The elemental protects a sacred grove or vernandi and is connected to the location. While within 300 ft. of the grove, the elemental regains 10 hit points at the start of its turn, unless it starts its turn with 0 hit points.
| 4 | ***False Appearance.*** While the elemental remains motionless, it is indistinguishable from a temple garden or overgrown building.  |

A creature restrained by the vines or one that can touch the creature can use its action to make a DC 20 Strength check. On a success, the target is freed.

### Vitu-Ghazi

</div>

Vitu-Ghazi, the Unity Tree, is a mammoth 
                           tree that acts as the guildhall of the Selesnya 
                          Conclave. Many terraces and temples are built 
                    within its endless branches. Selesnya members 
           visit the tree to behold the power of Mat'Selesnya, 
      while vodas and spiritual leaders congregate here to listen 
    to her voice (see also GGR p. 109).

Where Trostani is the spiritual aspect of Mat'Selesnya, Vitu-Ghazi is the body. Only in desperate times when a circle of druids and dryads come together, or a very powerful individual with a connection to the Worldsoul, can Vitu-Ghazi be awakened to protect the ideals of the Conclave.

## Massacre Girl

Massacre Girls is a lunatic Rakdos spiker gang leader and mercenary. She carries out any contract for money without asking questions and executes them without regards of the lives lost to reach that goal. She revels in terror and murder wherever she goes. This has made her one of the most fearsome assassins on Ravnica.

She is the number one on the Azorius most wanted list, but no arrester dares to take her in as she eludes being captured by threatening the lives of officials who attempt to investigate or detain her. She once killed an Azorius arrestor for coin and a second just for fun. Once, the father of one of her victims tried to kill her in vengeance.

## Oozes

***Author's note:*** *Weirdly enough, all mentions of Oozes were absent in the GGR (except for that one possible encounter in Krenko's Way). As Oozes are prominently present on Ravnica, I added some of the lower levelled species from the MM to the list, and some unique ones for everyone to play with.*

Oozes from Ravnica are green slime-like creatures with an amorphous form. They consume organic materials to sustain their growth. Their highly adaptive form makes them seem like cunning ambushers, but they actually just follow their primal instincts. These predictable patterns can be easily manipulated by the guilds for other purposes.

Specifically the Golgari Swarm and Simic Combine adopted a strong liking to them. 
As oozes consume and desolve anything in their path, Golgari druids use them to clean up waste in the sewer systems. They are also used for more nefarious purposes, such as laying traps for unsuspected travellers in the mazes of Korozda, or removing all traces of a corpse from a crime scene.

On the other hand, Simic biomancers use oozes for many of their experiments and try to understand their adaptability. Vannifar, the Speaker of Zonot Three, even incorporated proto-plasmic ooze into her body. Furthermore, cytoplasm and other Simic inventions were originally adapted from ooze slime, and some secret sinister experiments might be lurking in the deep Zonots of the Combine.

### Green Jellies and Gobbling Oozes
Green jellies (ochre jelly) and gobbling oozes (gelatinous cube) are not much different than their counterparts on other worlds. They usually slither through the sewers looking for unsuspecting prey they can gobble on. Simic and Golgari are both interested in their adaptive nature. See the MM p.242-243 for the statblocks of these creatures.

\columnbreak

### Miming Slimes
Miming Slimes are one of the few oozes that can take a solid form as a product of Simic experimentation. Biomancers have theorized that the ooze skin can be morphed into any shape possible within seconds. Other guilds sometimes rent miming slimes from the Simic for the use as tireless guards.

### Necroplasms
Necroplasms are one of the most feared oozes on Ravnica. They creep around in the dark corners of the Undercity searching for dead and alive bodies to devour. They are unpredictable ambushers that can wait for hours before striking at the right moment. Their black tendrils necrotize any tissue they touch. Travelers are advised to avoid any known locations where these creatures dwell.

> ##### Cevraya, Golgari shaman	
> Cevraya is an aspirant for the matka title of the Devkarin elves, but was sidestepped by Izoni. Begrudgingly, she is plotting her next move. Usually, Golgari shamans are adept at fungal or insect manipulation. However, Cevraya has a rare ability to mold and dominate oozes with her druidic rituals. She believes she can summon an ooze that can engulf all of Ravnica if given enough refuse and mana, and possibly remove all her rivals in the process.

As the weapons are made of ooze slime, they deal an extra 1d6 acid damage. The slime uses Strength for its melee weapon attacks and Dexterity for its ranged weapon attacks and is proficient with any of the items it is using.

### Experiment Kraj

</div>

Momir Vig, the deceased Simic guildmaster, 
tried to use cytoplasts to create the perfect 
lifeform. Cytoplasts are magical ooze tissues 
that imprint all genetic material it comes 
into contact with. Infusing the cytoplasts to 
Simic patients, Momir collected a large 
library of genetic information. As the cytoplasts 
were derived from oozes, this plasm grew 
larger and larger until the immense mutant 
ooze named Experiment Kraj was born.

***Project Kraj.*** Kraj is driven to collect genetic 
material from all lifeforms on Ravnica and will 
not stop until it managed to absorb them all. It 
can be considered as an advanced tier 4 Krasis. 
As other Krasis creatures are already enhanced with 
Simic bioaugmentations, Kraj recognizes them and can easily extract their genetics. Any Krasis affected by Kraj's Genetic Extraction fails its saving throw automatically. Kraj receives the corresponding major adaptation from the Krasis as seen in the table below instead of a rolling for one.

#### Kraj's Traits
**Ideal:** "All life is one." 
**Bond:** "No more adaptation is needed when Ravnica is united with me." 
**Flaw:** "Nothing is more perfect than me."

##### Bioaugmentation table
| d8 | Bioaugmented Adaptation | Corresponding Major Krasis Adaptation                              
|:--:|:------|:-----------|
| 1 | ***Acidic Slime.*** Any creature that touches Kraj or hits it with a melee atttack while within 10 feet of it takes 13 (2d12) acid damage. | Acidic Skin
| 2 | ***Gelatinous Blocks.*** Kraj can adapt its skin to withstand any kind of incoming attack, increasing its Armor Class by 4. | Armored Hide
| 3 | ***Magic Resistance.*** Kraj has glowing patterns on its slime that take the shape of defensive runes, granting it advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects. | Bioluminescent Markings
| 4 | ***Sticky Slime.*** Kraj can climb difficult surfaces, including upside down on ceilings, without needing to make an ability check. In addition, Kraj can also move through a space as narrow as 1 foot wide without squeezing. | Flight
| 5 | ***Lobopods.*** As a bonus action, Kraj can make a pseudopod attack against target creature it can see within 10 feet. On a hit, the target must succeed on a DC 19 Dexterity saving throw or be pulled up to 10 feet towards Kraj and be subjected to Kraj's Engulf. | Grabber
| 6 | ***Hypnotic Slime (Recharge 5-6).*** As an action, Kraj creates mesmerizing colors and shapes from its pseudopods. Each creature within 60 feet of it that can see it must succeed on a DC 21 Wisdom saving throw or be stunned for 1 minute. The stunned creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of their turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. A creature that succeeds on a saving throw against this effect becomes immune to Kraj's Hypnotic Slime for 24 hours. | Hypnotic Display
| 7 | ***Venomous Pseudopods.*** When Kraj hits a creature with its pseudopods, the creature must succeed on a DC 17 Constitution saving throw or be poisoned for 1 minute. While poisoned in this way, the creature is paralyzed. The poisoned creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. | Venomous Sting
| 8 | ***Regeneration.*** Kraj regains 10 hit points at the start of its turn. If Kraj takes fire damage, this trait doesn't function at the start of Kraj's next turn. Kraj dies only if it starts its turn with 0 hit points and doesn't Regenerate. | Regeneration

On a successful save, the creature can choose to be pushed 5 feet back or to the side of Kraj. A creature that chooses not to be pushed suffers the consequences of a failed saving throw. 
On a failed save, Kraj enters the creature's space, and the creature takes 13 (2d12) acid damage and is engulfed. The engulfed creature can't breathe, is restrained, and takes 26 (4d12) acid damage at the start of each of Kraj's turns. When Kraj moves, the engulfed creature moves with it. 
An engulfed creature can try to escape by taking an action to make a DC 19 Strength check. On a success, the creature escapes and enters a space of its choice within 5 feet of Kraj.

## Orzhova

After the creation of the Guildpact, the Obzedat found themselves in a peculiar position. They were instructed to keep the Ravnican 
population in place with their religious 
devotion. While it is debatable if they 
ever worshiped a real god, they soon 
began to move away from any ancient 
rituals and only praised the accumulation 
of wealth. However, they were afraid 
that any of their followers would 
question them, and thus they created 
Orzhova, a majestic angel to act as an 
idol to keep the soldiers in line. She was 
meant to squash any resistance of the 
church and inspire awe for those that 
kept their promises. Although it was never 
necessary to activate her, she is still 
silently hidden deep away in an Orzhov mausoleum for when times are dire. Her influence can still be found all around the guild, where her wings can be seen displayed on the soldier's armor or her name reused for the Church of Deals.

***Immortal Nature.*** Orzhova doesn't require food, drink, or sleep.

#### Orzhova's Traits
**Ideal:** "I do whatever it takes to keep my followers in line." 
**Bond:** "Everything I do is to increase the power of the church."

On a success, a creature takes half as much damage and isn't blinded. A blinded creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.

## Sisters of Stone Death

The three gorgon Sisters of Stone Death were originally subordinates of the Golgari parun Svogthir. However, they became disgruntled with his leadership and overthrew him. Although the sisters could not kill him, they imprisoned the lich in the tomb that is now known as Svogthos. They rules the guild until being overthrown by Savra and her brother Jarad.

The three sisters are a formidable foe together. With their killing glare, they each work in unison to kill there prey outright. Lydya screeches from the background, goading enemies into facing the sisters in direct combat. Lexya turns these trophies to stone. Ludmilla, eldest and most powerful of the three, uses her Golgari magic to animate the dead and turn them into her own necrolithic servants.

## Spark Trooper

</div>

Created as part of the Warmind Initiative, 
                           atop many of the Boros fortresses sit empty
                          sets of armor. They can be charged by Izzet-
                    designed conductors, giving form to electric 
           elemental soldiers to defend the Legion if needed. 
      Although they are usually short lived, just like their close
    relatives the flame-kin, they are intelligent beings and sometimes exist for months or even years after their conductors are shutdown. Discrimination against their existence within in the Boros is not unheard of and can harbour grudge for the living guild members.

## Thrull Grotesque
The Orzhov need to have reliable mindless soldiers and transports to protect their most precious belongings, which can be more than just mere coins. For this, they created towering thrulls that cannot defy their commands. They are created by the fleshmages by stitching many of cast-off bodies of the indebted together. The thrulls often have malformed arms or mouths all over the body, but always wear the infamous faceplates of their owner. Some of the thrull grotesques described below can be found in the employ of the Orzhov.

***Debtor's Transport.*** The debtor's transports carry a sarcophagus with them with trapped spirits. These spirits are usually of special interest for the Orzhov, such as uncooperative debtors or old patriarchs fallen out of favor. You can also replace one of the spirits with a plot relevant (spirit) NPC your players need to free.

***Mawed Thrull.*** As the prospect for work in the afterlife is a great fear for many debtors, they try to find alternatives to pay of their debt. One of those is the wrongful belief to sacrifice themselves to the mawed thrulls, lining themselves up to a useless gruesome death. A mawed thrull has a monstrous large maw inside its belly, which can be used to swallow any smaller creature whole.

***Treasury Thrull.*** The simplest of their type, the treasury thrulls carry treasures around. When they are defeated, consider rolling on the Treasure Hoard: Challenge 5—10 (DMG p. 133) for a large Orzhov hoard. Or maybe the thrull carries an important item your players need for their quest.

> ***Sarcophagus (Debtor's Transport only).*** Each time the thrull is damaged, it must succeed a DC 15 Constitution saving throw or release a spirit captive within the sarcophagus until it is empty. The more the thrull is damaged, the fiercer the spirits released are. The spirit's allegiance is determined by a die roll. On an odd number the spirit is vengeful and hostile to all creatures. On an even number, it is indebted to the Orzhov and loyal to their commands. The release order of the spirits is as followed: 
> 1: *Specter* (MM page 279) 
> 2: *Indentured Spirit* (GGR page 206) 
> 3: *Indentured Spirit* 
> 4: *Ghost* (MM page 147) 
> 5: *Wraith* (MM page 302)
> ___
>
> ### Actions
> ***Multiattack.*** The thrull makes two attacks: one with its bite and one with its stomp.
>
> ***Bite.*** *Melee Weapon Attack:* +8 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. *Hit:* 9 (1d8 + 5) piercing damage. If the target is a Medium or smaller creature, it is grappled (escape DC 16). Until this grapple ends, the target is restrained, and the thrull can't bite another target.
>
> ***Stomp.*** *Melee Weapon Attack:* +8 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. *Hit:* 18 (3d8 + 5) bludgeoning damage.
>
> ***Swallow (Mawed Thrull only).*** The thrull makes one bite attack against a Medium or smaller creature it is grappling. If the attack hits, that creature takes the bite's damage and is swallowed, and the grapple ends. While swallowed, the creature is blinded and restrained, it has total cover against attacks and other effects outside the thrull, and it takes 7 (2d6) acid damage plus 7 (2d6) necrotic damage at the start of each of the thrull's turns. 
If the thrull takes 20 damage or more on a single turn from a creature inside it, the thrull must succeed on a DC 15 Constitution saving throw at the end of that turn or regurgitate all swallowed creatures, which fall prone in a space within 10 feet of the thrull. If the thrull dies, a swallowed creature is no longer restrained by it and can escape from the corpse using 15 feet of movement, exiting prone.

## Vampires

See GRR (p. 223-224) for more information about Ravnican vampires.

### Tithe Drinker Vampire
Tithe Drinkers are blood drinker vampires that engulfed themselves into the riches of the Orzhov Syndicate. Their laziness for money and blood made them weaker foes than their more dedicated family members.

### Moroii
Where the moroii originate from is unknown. Unlike other vampires, they do not steal your blood, money, or mind. The moroii steal youth and beauty, more precious than either, and once gone, it's gone forever. They are killers in the night, roaming the alleys and nooks of Nightveil and the sewers of Duskmantle to drain the life from other guildmembers and suck interlopers' brains dry of any stolen secrets.

> ##### The Haunt of Hightower
> While moroii are almost like a fairytale for most civilians, it is rumored that one lives close by the neighborhood of Hightower. Sometimes students of nearby schools tell each other scary stories of this supposed monster. However, when pressed, none of them dares to traverse alone at night. Rumors go that too many drunk students have already mysteriously disappeared.

The aging effect and reduced attributes can be reversed with a *heal* or *greater restoration* spell within 24 hours.

### Szadek

As the master of puppets and strings, Szadek was the first mind drinker vampire and the founder of House Dimir. His machinations can span hundreds, if not thousands, of years with his ultimate plan to rule Ravnica by himself.

During the Decamillennial ceremony, Szadek almost destroyed the Guildpact to further his goal, but got arrested instead. After his verdict and subsequent execution, he became a ghost. Although his final fate remains a mystery, some Dimir operatives believe Szadek is still pulling the strings from the ethereal plane.

***Lord of Secrets*** Szadek always works from the shadows. Other vampires leave their signature on their victims, the fang holes in the neck. Others make thralls of their victims. The Lord of Secrets keeps his doings secret.

When Szadek sinks his silvery teeth into his victims, they drain knowledge and memories instead of blood. The first memory consumed is that of the bite itself. Then the victim starts to lose any knowledge of seeing the vampire in the first place and any remnant that could lead to the Dimir.

It will, rarely, happen that someone manages to penetrate all defenses of the Dimir. Ironically, Szadek has one final trick to use against these infiltrators: simply revealing the truth. He is confident that no one can be prepared for the unthinkable truth of House Dimir.

#### Szadek's Traits
**Ideal:** "In secrecy is strength. None can oppose one who cannot be found." 
**Bond:** "The truths of Ravnica are so powerful that one glance can burn them into your mind forever. Let us gaze into nothingness." 
**Flaw:** "I cannot tolerate secrecy of others."

## Zeppelid

The gigantic Zeppelids are a sight to behold. According 
to the Simic, they are related to lizards, but there is 
little resemblance to be seen. These floating 
creatures blot out the sun for five days during their 
annual migration, which is dubbed the "Days of 
Darkness" by the districts within their path. Their 
trumpeting mating calls can be deafening for the 
unfortunate citizens living below. While the wild Stratozeppelid 
are usually passive creatures, the Simic modified some of them to creature the fearsome "Assault Zeppelid" to rival the Boros Skyknights and Selesnyan Equenauts.

## NPCs Extended

This section describes an extended NPC list to add to the humanoid roster of the guilds.

### Apex Hybrid (Simic)
Deep within Zonot Three there is Navika, the personal laboratory of Vannifar. Here, the Apex Hybrids are created. They are fusions of humanoids and other lifeforms to create the perfect soldier for the Simic *Guardian Project*. While other hybrids volunteer to be transformed with certain small adaptations, the original form of an Apex Hybrids is almost unrecognizable.

### Arbiter (Azorius)
Arbiters preside as judges over the legal cases of the Azorius Senate. They are a conduit of truth, a will so disciplined that it dispenses justice without ego or remorse. They can usually be found on floating benches on Azorius grounds. Arbiters have a unique relationship with spirits and can communicate with a soulsworn jury to enact undisputed justice. Their highest member, the Grand Arbiter Leonos II, acts as the leader of the Sova Column.

### Beggar
The Guilds are not kind to the denizens of the streets. Beggars can be found everywhere on Ravnica for all sorts of reasons. Some are indebted to the Orzhov and are forced to leave their home, some are Dimir informants looking for secrets, and others are just unfortunate guildless caught between the rivaling Guilds. The Gruul often uses their members in the guise of beggars to scout new regions to plunder. Due to their diverse backgrounds, beggars can be sympathetic allies or ordinary muggers.

### Driller (Rakdos)
Within the Rakdos, originally the mining guild, the driller is a relic of old. Their drills were primarily used to mine valuable minerals to sustain the wealth of the guild. However, now that most mountains are hollowed out, drillers are used for other purposes if necessary. Such as to satisfy the curiosity of cult members how a brain looks like from the inside on stage.

### Fleshmage (Orzhov)
When the Orzhov Syndicate rips a soul from its body to create a spirit, the cast-off remains go to the fleshmages, who use their necromantic magic to liquefy the corpse and transform it into something useful. While usually working deep within the dusty crypts far away from prying eyes, they are still formidable mages in their own right. Especially their touch can wither away any remaining flesh from a living being.

### Healer (Selesnya and Simic)
The Selesnya and Simic are well known to be able to cure any affliction seen in the populace, although guild affiliation is recommended to reach better care. The healers (named doctors for the Simic) can be found to work endlessly to reach the anyone in need.

### Konstructor (Azorius)
Konstructors are the builders and architects of the Azorius Senate. They build and defend the maximum security prisons that are in high demand need during tensions between Guilds. Besides their prowess with stoneworks, the new leadership set their intelligence to work on designing Thopters to patrol the streets.

### Necrosage (Dimir)
The necrosages are one of the most mysterious groups of Ravnica. They act as the inner circle of the Dimir, only second to the guildmaster. They perform rituals high at the top of Dinrova Heights and oversee guild activity within Duskmantle. They make sure that the different undercover and sleeper agents are unaware of the larger guild structure, or remove those that are.

### Prelate (Orzhov)
Prelates are the highest rank that a living member of the Orzhov can obtain. They are one of the few that may directly communicate with the Obzedat.

***Pay to Live.*** Prelates have a duty to use their divine magic to show the people of Ravnica that the religion of the Orzhov is real and here to help you. For a price, of course. Only oligarchs and members with enough donations may get an audience to heal their burdens. However, the amount of donations is sometimes determined only after a curse is lifted, which might result in the donor being indebted for the rest of their life. They usually charge ten times the material cost of a spell to their clients if necessary.

### Quietman (Selesnya)
The quietman are the end result of the indoctrination process of the Selesnya Conclave. Only those few that are completely loyal to the cause are selected, although rumors go that there are brainwashed people kidnapped from the streets among their ranks. They are stripped of their identity and will only silently communicate with other members of the Conclave. They look like mysterious white-robed and floating humanoids. The quietman act as guards, spies, assassins, and kidnappers. In unison, they can act as a last line of defense for the Selesnya, acting more like a swarm of bees then their supposed profession as priests.

### Spellbreaker (Gruul)
Gruul are usually not that privy with magic that does not destroy anything. But sometimes survival is more important than senseless plundering. To ensure protection against magic, they use so called spellbreakers, Gruul shamans that specialize in countering and retaliating the magic of enemies. Although spellbreakers have to keep a steady head, they do not have a problem with some city plundering themselves.

### Ringmaster (Rakdos)
The original Rakdos Cult was organized in nine rings led by a ringmaster. Each ringmaster has its own territory, sphere of influence, and followers. Their territories are ruled by clubs and spike gangs, which can get violently contested by other guilds. The clubs provide several services, such as circus entertainment, food and drinks, pit fights, and erotica. These rings can change in the more mobile troupes. Well known ringmasters include: Judith, the Scourge Diva; Juri, Master of the Revue; and Panjandrum of Master Panjandrum's Extraordinary Carnival of Delights.

### Woodshaper (Selesnya)
While the voda, a chosen dryad, is needed to connect a vernandi to the Worldsoul, the vernandi themselves have to be created in advance. Here, the woodshapers come into play to claim territory for the Conclave. Woodshapers are also the force behind the creation of various gardens and shape houses out of trees. Many large temples have been erected and animated by these fearsome druids.

##### Lairs

\pagebreakNum

## Boros Flying Fortress
One of the most fearsome weapons in the Boros Legion arsenal are the flying fortresses. Docked at several strategic locations, such as Kamen Fortress and Sunhome, they are seldomly used due to their high costs to operate. They have a large crew of soldiers, sky rocs, and can house battleangels overseen by a Warleader. They are staying afloat by two huge magical anti-gravity thrusters. To assault the enemy, they have hatches for skyjecs (or battleangels for the larger ones) that can bomb the enemy, a gigantic battering ram with a connected draw bridge to destroy fortifications and subsequently drop soldiers onto the battlefield, and a burning Boros Signet operated by the Warleader that can fire radiant beams.

Flying fortresses can only be deployed with explicit permission of a Warleader angel and only Aurelia can deploy their largest fortress Parhelion II (which also acts as the headquarters of the Boros angels). The fortress is similar to a gargantuan creature hovering stationary in the air. All effects originate from its location. When determining the difficulty of such an encounter, consider the lair to be one additional creature of challenge rating 15.

### Lair Actions
On initiative count 20 (losing initiative ties), the flying fortress takes a lair action, causing one of the following effects; the flying fortress can't use the same effect two rounds in a row:

* **Solar Blaze.** A beam of brilliant light in a 90-foot cone flashes out from the burning Boros Signet in the direction of the Warleader's choice. Each creature in the area must make a DC 18 Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, a creature takes 16 (3d10) radiant damage plus 16 (3d10) fire damage and is blinded until initiative count 20 on the next round. On a successful save, it takes half as much damage and isn't blinded by the beam. Undead have disadvantage on this saving throw.
* **Battering Ram.** The flying fortress quickly descents and uses its battering ram to bash in a 20-foot cube. It momentarily lowers its draw bridge after which the fortress takes off again. Each target within the area must succeed on a DC 18 Dexterity saving throw or take 27 (6d8) bludgeoning damage. Buildings automatically fail the saving throw and take double damage. Then 1d4 soldiers (GGR, page 226) are dropped within the area at the location of the DM's choice.

\columnbreak

* **Bomber Hatches (4/Day).** The skyjek aviaries and angel bomber hatches open up and releases either a knight mounted on a skyjec roc (MM, page 347 and GGR, page 219) or a battleforce angel (GGR, page 189).
* **Magic Thrusters.** The flying fortress can move op to 60 feet across the battlefield. The soldiers on the pinnacle guards will then shoot arrows of justice at six different targets. Each target must succeed on a DC 18 Dexterity saving throw or take 7 (2d6) piercing plus 7 (2d6) radiant damage.

#### Parhelion II
When the flying fortress is Parhelion II, the challenge rating increases to 21 and all DC saving throws are increased to 20. In addition, it can use the following additional lair actions:

* **Rally the Righteous.** A trumpet orchestra from the thundersong trumpeters radiates out from Parhelion II, inspiring the crew. Parhelion II can directly take two other lair effects at once. The chosen effects can't be used during the next action (including this one).
* **Angel's Fury (2/Day).** A firemane angel (GGR, page 190) is called upon the battlefield from the angel barracks to release their fiery crusade upon the enemy.

### Regional Effects
The flying fortress radiates a powerful influence over the area its flying:

* When an enemy creature that is outside the flying fortress sees or hears it, the creature must succeed on a DC 18 Wisdom saving throw or be frightened. It can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on a success. On a successful save, the creature becomes immune to this effect for 24 hours.
* A large shadow blotting out the sun is cast over the battlefield below.
* A daring party might be able to board a flying fortress which will turn into a dungeon with a layout as seen [here](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/D428AmvW4AAVZZI?format=jpg&name=large) (original [here](https://twitter.com/TitusLunter/status/1120758676585943040)).

If all Boros allies on the ground die, the flying fortress attempts to fly away back home as they can't be allowed to be lost and these effects end immediately.

## Debtors
Everyone needs money to live a good life on Ravnica. Many need some loans to pay their home or start a business, and where better to get them than the Orzhov? However, the Orzhov believe that debt and guilt is a necessary function of society. It creates structure so that society will not collapse in and on itself. However, the Orzhov have fallen for the idea that wealth equals power. They are adamant in obtaining as much wealth as possible, and thus getting as many debtors to the guild as possible. The debtors form an essential labor force for the guild. An person can only escape until they have worked enough to pay off their debts, which will follow them even into their afterlife as spirit.

**Indebted.** Any creature with an Intelligence score of 4 or higher that owns money to the Orzhov is indebted. Debts can be caused by loans, unpaid taxes, mandatory donations, or any form of fines. Another way is through extortion, which is described later this chapter. There is usually one specific individual that is the creditor, which has certain power over the debtor due to magically binding contracts set up by advokists. Creditors can be any sapient member of the Orzhov (with the exception of thrulls). Killing or removing the creditor will not resolve any of the contracts, as they will be magically carried over to the direct superior of the creditor. As the Obzedat ghosts and Orzhova are the leading figures of the guild, all debtors are also automatically indebted to them.

The creditor has the following traits against the debtor:

* **Sinstriker.** All melee and ranged attacks deal extra necrotic damage. The necrotic damage uses the same damage die as the original attack. As example, if a ranged spell attack deals 12 (2d8 + 3) piercing damage, the necrotic damage deals an additional 4 (1d8) damage.
* **Penance.** The creditor can cast *command* at will and *suggestion* once per day on the debtor. The save DC is based on the amount of debt, increasing by one for each order of magnitude as shown in the table below.
* **Seize the Soul.** If the debtor dies, it will rise as an Indentured Spirit (GGR, page 206) if the debts are not paid in full. If the creature dies on another plane of existence, the soul will be transported to the Ethereal Plane of Ravnica, where the spirit can be collected by the Orzhov. The spirit still has its own memories, but is fully subservient to the Orzhov. The spirit needs to work 50 hours for every zino in debt, after which it will be released. It can't be resurrected with anything less than a *wish* spell unless they worked off their obligations or when either the creditor or a member of the Obzedat ghost council agrees to it.

\columnbreak

##### Severity of debt
| Debt in Zinos (gold) | Save DC | Time in undead servitude 
|:---:|:-----------:|:--:
| 1 | 12 | ~2 days
| 10 | 13 | ~20 days
| 100 | 14 | ~7 months
| 1000 | 15 | ~6 years
| 104 | 16 | ~60 years
| 105 | 17 | ~600 years
| 106 | 18 | ~6000 years
| etc | etc | etc

> ##### Extortion
> Taxes and donations need to be collected for the syndicate, and if people don't want to pay their obligations, there are other ways to receive the money. Thugs, priests, knights, and giants are specifically known to roam the streets, while vampires and angels require their daily doses of donations in the dark recesses of the churches. 
> Any creatures in the employ of the Orzhov that has an Intelligence score of 4 or higher might be able extort other creatures. When dealing damage to another creature with an Intelligence score of 4 or higher, the target loses zinos (gold) that are magically extracted from their blood equal to the damage dealt. When they don't have enough money, or can't give up an equivalent object with the same value, they become indebted to the extorter.

## Hundred-Year Storm
Izzet experiments often result in unusual weather phenomenons that can last for weeks or even months. These are usually unintended, but can nevertheless be desired for any unknown future experiments. Aether channels, Mizzium constructs, Aerial-Antistatis Chambers, Lightning Projects, or a large Beacon could all be a reason for such a storm.

When at least five Izzet scientist work on an experiment together within a laboratory, they can accidentally initiate a hundred-year storm. The group must include Niv-Mizzet or at least one chemister (mage) or izmundi (archmage). When determining the difficulty of such an encounter, consider the hundred-year storm to be one additional creature of challenge rating 4.

### Lair Actions
On initiative count 20 (losing initiative ties), the Izzet group takes a lair action, causing one of the following effects; the Izzet can't use the same effect two rounds in a row:

* **Elemental Metastream Dynamics.** Chaotic aether strikes at the location of one creature the Izzet can see. The target must make a DC 16 Dexterity saving throw, taking 13 (3d8) damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. The chaotic energies then leaps to a different creature within 30 feet of the first which must roll a new saving throw. The damage type is one of Acid, Cold, Fire, Force, Lightning, Psychic, or Thunder chosen by the Izzet.
* **Cyclonic Rift.** A strong cyclonic whirlwind that fills a 20-foot wide cylinder centered on a point the Izzet choose within 120 feet of any member of the group pushes creatures around. Any creature within the area when it appears must make a DC 16 Dexterity saving throw. On a failure, a target takes 9 (2d8) bludgeoning damage and is flung up 30 feet away from the cylinder in a random direction and knocked prone. If a thrown target strikes an object, such as a wall or floor, the target takes 3 (1d6) bludgeoning damage for every 10 feet it was thrown. If the target is thrown at another creature, that creature must succeed on a DC 16 Dexterity saving throw or take the same damage and be knocked prone.
If the saving throw is successful, the target takes half the bludgeoning damage and isn't flung away or knocked prone.
* **Spatial Ectofractals.** An Izzet creature teleports, swapping places with a creature it can see within 30 feet of it.

\columnbreak

### Regional Effects

* The outdoor area within a 2 mile radius of the storm is lightly obscured by heavy rainfall.
* Lightning strikes all around the storm within a 2 mile radius. Creatures wearing metal must succeed on a DC 16 Dexterity saving throw when entering the storm for the first time or take 14 (4d6) lightning damage.
* Small lightning eddies in the air materialize where abnormal entities enter Ravnica. The location of any creature that uses teleportation or extraplanar magic, such as a *dimension door* or *plane shift* spell, is instantly revealed in the clouds within 2 miles of the storm.

If all the Izzet in the lair die, the regional effects fade over 1d10 days. The whole lair can also be deactivated by casting *control weather* and concentrating for one hour to stop the storm.

\pagebreakNum

## Immortal Sun
After the War of the Spark, the Azorius came into the possession of the Immortal Sun, one of the most powerful artifacts in existence. When activated, it can give an individual immense god-like powers. Only strictly selected guardians are able to activate the sun. However, its intended purpose was to stop planeswalkers from leaving a plane. When fully activated it  stops any interplanar travel across the world, except for adjacent planes of existence (such as the ethereal plane, fey world, or abyss) or demiplanes.

### Legendary Actions
The guardian can take 3 legendary actions, choosing from the options below. Only one legendary action can be used at a time and only at the end of another creature's turn. The guardian regains spent legendary actions at the start of its turn. If the guardian already has legendary actions, it can use the options below in addition to its own legendary actions.

* **Protective Light.** The guardian gains 5 temporary hit points and resistance against one damage type of its choice until the start of its next turn.

\columnbreak

* **Full Awakening (Costs 2 Actions)** The guardian can take one of its actions.
* **Empowered Veneration (Costs 3 Actions).** Yellow light washes over target creature, forcing it to follow the commands of the champion. The target must succeed on a DC 20 Wisdom saving throw or use its reaction to make a melee weapon attack against a random creature within reach. If no creatures are within reach, or the target can't take a reaction and takes 5 (1d10) psychic damage.

### Regional Effects
* The guardian can't be surprised and has advantage on attack rolls, ability checks, and saving throws.
* Any creature of the guardian's choice that starts its turn within 30 feet of the Immortal Sun must make a DC 20 Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, the creature becomes restrained until the start of its next turn.
* A bright light in the air with concentric circles and runes appears in the air. As long as the Immortal Sun is activated, it completely blocks interplanar travel across the world. Forms of movement barred by the artifact include astral projection, dimension door, gate, plane shift, and similar spells or abilities.

##### Creatures by Guild

</div>

\pagebreakNum

## Azorious Senate

See pages 183 and 226-228 of the GGR for complete information.

#### Birds
Azorius uses birds in all their daily affairs. Many judges have owls as familiars to carry trinkets or deliver messages. Giant Eagles are used to fend off drakes from rooftops. Other birds include doves, which are seen as the bringers of peace. A dove of peace is an owl, as described in the Monster Manual (p. 333), but can use the plumes of peace ability and has a challenge rating of 1/8 (25 XP).

***Plumes of Peace.*** While four or more doves of peace are within 30 feet of one another, they can collectively cast *calm emotions* once per day. Their spellcasting ability is Wisdom (spell save DC 11).

#### Homunculus
These small one-eyed creatures perform the daily chores all around Azorius territory. Simply tending the gardens, sweeping floors, there is nothing else they'd rather do than staying out of the business of the larger populace. However, now and then, they need to deliver some messages in the big outside world or even act as bait for a criminal. These homunculi use the statistics of a regular homunculus except that they are wingless and have no flying speed.

#### Sphinx of Judgment
A sphinx of judgment is a gynosphinx, as described in the MM, but it is an Azorius spellcaster with the following wizard spells prepared: 
Cantrips (at will): *friends, mage hand, message* 
1st level (4 slots): *command, ensnaring strike, shield* 
2nd level (3 slots): *calm emotions, hold person, suggestion* 
3rd level (3 slots): *clairvoyance, counterspell, dispel magic*

##### Golgari Lair
When at least six Golgari defend their territory together, they can call on the environment to aid them. The group must include Jarad Vod Savo, or at least one Sister of Stone-Death, Golgari shaman, kraul death priest, undercity medusa, or Devkarin lich.

> ##### Errata
> **Deadbridge Goliath Beetle (Triceratops)** Increased Trampling Charge from DC 13 to DC 17 Strength saving throw (8 + Prof + Str), as is used by other creatures (such as Mammoths). 
> **Jarad vod Savo** Receives truesight 120 ft. instead of darkvision. He is the improved version of the Devrakin Lich which has already truesight, it goes without saying he shouldn't be weaker.

## Gruul Clans

See pages 185 and 237-239 of the GGR for complete information.

#### Hellions
Hellions are worm-like creatures with a funnel-like mouth lines with rows and rows of teeth. They use tendrils on their head to catch their prey. Hellions are revered by the Gruul as the natural manifestation of rage and destruction. These hellions use the statistics of a regular rhemorhaz as described in the MM, but their bite attack is named a tendril attack.

#### Ragebeasts
The Gruul can bring out the fury in any beast in the list, turning them into ragebeasts. Ragebeasts have the Reckless and Siege Monster traits:

***Reckless.*** At the start of its turn, the ragebeast can gain advantage on all melee weapon attack rolls it makes during that turn, but attack rolls against it have advantage until the start of its next turn.

***Siege Monster.*** The ragebeast deals double damage to objects and structures.

\columnbreak

> ##### The Firemind
> Niv-Mizzet created the Firemind where any member of the Izzet can tap into. It is a psionic repository of ideas used to coordinate experiments and research. Niv-Mizzet only show the part that his underlings need to know, making the true purpose of some experiments impossible to grasp for mortals. Most Izzet guildhalls have a place where members can receive the following traits:
> * (1/Day) The creature regains a spell slot of 3rd level or lower.
> * (1/Day) The creature has advantage on its next Intelligence (arcana) roll.
> * If Niv-Mizzet deems the creature worthy, he can telepathic link with it as if he'd cast *telepathy*.

##### Named Encounters

##### Hundred-Year Storm
When at least five Izzet scientist work on an experiment together within a laboratory, they can accidentally initiate a hundred-year storm. The group must include Niv-Mizzet or at least one chemister (mage) or izmundi (archmage).

> ##### Errata
> **Niv-Mizzet** His level 5, 6, and 7 slots are increased by one (up to 3, 2, and 2 respectively). From his printed stats, Niv-Mizzet should either be a 20th-level spellcaster with increased slots, or lowered to a 16th-level spellcaster. However, I am certain the Firemind with a CR of 26 would have the highest possible amount spell slots.

#### Gargoyles
Gargoyles usually have very loud screams that can alarm other guardians against intruders. However, some of them have such loud pitches that it will damage the intruder itself. These gargoyles have the Shrieking Affliction trait: 
***Shrieking Affliction.*** The gargoyle emits destructive energy in a 10-foot cube. Each creature in that area must succeed on a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or take 7 (2d6) thunder damage and be deafened for 1 minute. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on a success.

> **Obzedat Ghosts** Increased the DC 13 Constitution saving throw to DC 16 (8 + Prof + Wis) for their life drain attack, as is used by other ghost-like creatures (such as Wraiths). They also get expertise in Arcana (+10) so they can at least realistically control their own *sphere of annihilation*.

However, each of the witches schemes to get more favor from Rakdos than the others. A blood witch that is part of a coven has a challenge rating of 9 (5,000 XP).
>
> A coven consists of three blood witches so that any arguments between two witches can be settled by the third. A rakdos riteknife is often used in their rituals.
>
> ***Shared Spellcasting.*** While all three members of a witch coven are within 30 feet of one another, they can each cast the following spells from the wizard's spell list but must share the spell slots among themselves:

## Guildless Creatures

Important to note is that any creature in the other guild lists are also possible to encounter as guidless. Even creatures such as an Archon of the Triumvirate, an Izzet Djinn, or a Warleader angel could have been demoralized by the stance of its own guild and began acting on their own.
