Stars to the City (Ravnica x Theros)
Chapter 2. Guilds pt. 2
Welcome back, I hoped you guys had liked the first half of my set idea, I've been working hard on it. Here's the second half.
Boros
Aurelia has grown ambitious. The Boros' influence in Ravnica has grown since more and more of Theros's monsters have come flooding in, and the Boros's military might has been called on in order to defend the public. Aurelia herself however wants more. She has come to believe that the Boros need to rule more, "protect" those that are plagued by the creatures that flood Ravnica, and makes plans for campaigning into the portals that lead to Theros
Simic
The Simic themselves have changed little in comparison to the other guilds. They still hold the goal of improving upon nature, and have even gained converts from the Triton that come to Ravnica. Zegana however has had her interest piqued. A few of the Triton that come to her guild have skin like the starry night, a sight that's rare on Ravnica. The naïve in the Simic call these people Night-Skinned. Zegana however knows there is more to the story, and has put in serious efforts to research the Nyxborn, and hopes to one day to create some of her own. In addition, her guild has been working on intensive research into Chimeras, which in the eyes of the Simic, are near perfect in nature as they are fusions of magic and biology. On a side note, Thassa's influence in Ravnica is slowly growing, as her kingdom leaves the seas, and takes to the sky.
Selesnya
The Conclave's normally calm and nurturing lifestyle is getting rocked. Dryads from Theros bring with them tales of Karametra, the harvest god. In the Conclave, Dryads are highly respected, and when new Dryads, whose skin has been star-kissed, come, bearing ideas of a new god that is not Mat'Selesnya, it would certainly bring disorder to their communion. Trostani has been trying to quell this idea of Karametra, as it interferes with their plans. So now, the Conclave wages a civil war to settle its differences.
Dimir
The Dimir have taken to the immigrants quite well. The Returned also serve well to the Dimir, functioning as the perfect agents, since they already forget whatever they are told. The Dimir also take interest in the Gorgons as well, their quick killing gazes sending effective messages, and their knowledge of venoms and poisons are instrumental in the Dimir's assassinations as well. With the inclusion of the two races, so too are their worships. The Dimir aligned Returned continue to worship Phenax, whose teachings of deceptions are welcomed by the Dimir, while Pharika's worship has also taken in human worship, and blue mana has become part of Pharika's being, which has given her new thoughts, and new planes.
Golgari
The Golgari are probably the most surprising. They themselves have begun to preach a new God, known as "The Mad Titan" or "The Great Cleanser". Hermits and madmen have found their way to the Golgari's territory of the Undercity, where they raved about a Godly being, who wishes to cleanse the worlds of all impurities, and leave in their place a perfect race, and all those that follow him would see salvation. Naturally, the Golgari welcome this idea, and gladly worship the Mad Titan, whom they believe will allow them to become the leading Guild of Ravnica, and possibly even expand.
That's it for the guilds! Next, I will be working on the Gods themselves, noting any changes to you have any ideas for the gods, please PM me them!
