The Golgari Swarm is a Guild that operates deep under the world-spanning metropolis of Ravnica, bringing existence (and death) to the undercity–find out what drives the coronary heart of the swarm. Not to be burdened with the different Heart of the Swarm, the Golgari Swarm are a guild of Druids who stay in a world that is overrun with civilization. But the place the town grows (and bear in mind this is a town that is ten thousand years old) in the end matters fall into decay. There are layers upon layers of town to explore. Sewers. Undercities. Undercrofts. The Simic Combine and their Zones aren’t the only ones who dredge matters up in the deep locations of the world. For in the locations where Civilization has fallen to decay, the Golgari thrive.
Golgari Agent 5e
Imagine a bunch of Druids who got here throughout Necromancy and the notion “yeah that sounds about right” — for the Golgari embody life, death, and undeath. The cycle of lifestyles and loss of life and undeath all feed collectively to create this procedure with the aid of which the dwelling grows, then is “reclaimed” and reforged into something new. And to the Golgari, this herbal cycle is current even in the trappings of Civilization.
Thus they will work with undead–they view undeath as a section of the cycle, partner to existence and death, transitory–the solely actual inherently evil aspect is the stagnation of say, changing all existence with undeath or in any other case attempting to spoil the cycle they preserve dear. And owing to their reverence for fungi, the Circle of Spores Druids will play host to a symbiotic colony of necrotic spores that assist them to deal injury in a place around them, seriously change them into a melee fight monster, and manage the battlefield with their toxic issue.

You recognize hidden, underground pathways that you can use to ignore crowds, obstacles, and remarks as you pass through the city. When you are not in combat, you and the companions you lead can tour between any two places in the town twice as quickly as your velocity would commonly allow. The paths of the undercity are haunted via risks that are not often courageous on the mild of the floor, so your experience isn’t always assumed to be safe.
