Simple Homebrew Alterations to the Guild System Overall it’s a great book and worth the read, especially if you’re a Magic the Gathering fan.
On the other hand, if you were looking for an alternative to the renown system you’re not going to find it in these pages. If you want a greater level of detail or examples for your game, you can find it there. While the book offers more rules and a deeper look at the renown system, its additions actually boil down to lore, character customization, and additional monsters more than anything else. If you think the two or so pages the DMG gives to the renown system is shameful, then take a look at the Guildmaster’s Guide to Ravnica for more detailed renown style factions. Guildmaster’s Guide to Ravnica: Renown on Steroids No matter how you dish out renown perks, the simple system is very flexible and works for most games without additional fuss. These can come with titles, faction benefits, or monetary entitlements. Each organization will have ranks, rewards, and perks for individuals who gain enough renown. The renown system is simply a points counter where players gain renown with any organization by completing missions or advancing that organization’s interests and lose renown by doing the opposite. While it does a good job of explaining that any organization should have some core values, goals, and types of quests they give out, the only other bit of rules presented here are for the renown system. DnD 5e has optional rules for handling organizations laid out in the Dungeon Master’s Guide on pages 21-23. Guilds as Organizations in DnD 5eĪt its core, a guild is simply a type of organization. In fantasy worlds, in addition to being a gathering and learning mechanism for professionals, they also serve as their own miniature governments, quest givers, and major players in world events.
In real life guilds are an important part of many skilled labor industries.
Simply put, a guild is a group of professionals banded together along common types of work. In DnD 5e there are already some great starting points available for guild-centric adventures, but today we’d like to present a few simple and straightforward additions to the guild system that anyone can use with minimal preparation and effort. Using guilds in your DnD games makes a ton of sense given the nature of the game, its rules, and how stories are generally set up and presented. With all their complexities and room for narrative exploration, Guilds are often a staple of the fantasy roleplay world.
