So WotC just published a separate PDF supplement to Wild Beyond the Witchlight over at DM's Guild, titled Domains of Delight. Any plans to bring that supplement to DnDBeyond, similarly to the other digital charity supplements?
thanks for pointing that out, it looks neat, and it would be further neat to D&D Beyond it, though it looks more essays for DMs to think over rather than crunchy things, I think the only stats you get are the archfey, but might be cool to grab.

Jander Sunstar is the thinking person's Drizzt, fight me.
If anyone buys it, could you do a summary and review what's inside it? I'm curious as to what's inside it, what it's like and whether it's worth buying.

If you're not willing or able to to discuss in good faith, then don't be surprised if I don't respond, there are better things in life for me to do than humour you. This signature is that response.
I purchased it yesterday, as it fell well within my SVQ (Subway Value Quotient, a comparison scale based on subway sandwiches). Sitting in at approximated 8.5 inches worth of sandwich, the book wasn't that expensive.
It's an 11 20 ish page PDF with tips on how to run fey, including accidental fey bargains, the nature of fey and their gifts, and other such cultural touchstones for the fey. It also has a guide on making your own archfey and even their own domain of delight.
It's a nice little supplement that I feel you could combine with Witchlight to make a higher level version of the adventure

It's an 11 page PDF with tips on how to run fey, including accidental fey bargains, the nature of fey and their gifts, and other such cultural touchstones for the fey. It also has a guide on making your own archfey and even their own domain of delight.

It's actually 20+ pages, 11 is an understatement... Get what you mean though, as 50% is reproduced WBtW stuff apparently. Still, it appears to be higher quality to previous DM's Guild options from WotC with official book-style formatting rather than slapdash. If it had a better cover it'd be worth a hardback! As it is, it looks gorgeous and useful, unlike One Grung Above which just has one lineage and no good flavor text.

Thanks for that write up Davyd, and I am familiar with Subway as a reference for cost analysis, so that was cool too.
Question: reading over the preview I was feeling the Unseelie/Seelie court write up was something someone well read in 5e would be well aware of. But at the same time I like the idea of Domains of Delight, and design guidance for them having nice symmetry with the Domains of Dread guidance in VRGtR. So I guess I'm wondering if you can ballpark how much of this is basically consolidating Fey lore already out there in 5e and how much of it is actually "innovative" or "new" (probably largely on the "running the game" tip) material.
Question2, and maybe this is sort of out of your wheelhouse, but in terms of D&D Beyond adaptability, is there much of it that would actually rely on DDB tools? I can only think of ArchFey stat blocks, but most of it sounds like something that I'd probably rather read in PDF (or pay a few more bucks for a bound edition if that was ever an option, will probably print and bind myself on my own bookshelf) than through the DDB compendium interface.

Never had an issue posting DMsGuild links in this forum before so, for those who want to check it out in the store, here's a link to it.
It's got about four pages of preview, where you can see the table of contents as well as some write ups on the seelie/unseelie courts. That's actually not new, but I think it gives you an overall sense of the flavor of the work.

I believe DDB has had Extra life stuff before, Grung, and Tortles as well as adventure lost laboratory of Kwalish, Infernal Machine Rebuild and maybe more
I do hope it is brought over to DDB. It seems interesting and going through online books is just easier here than through a clunky pdf. And making it available more places just means a better likely hood of getting money for charity.
Is it on Roll20? I'd also like to know if there's a place where I can (legally) get the whole thing for free.
It is being sold on DMsGuild by WotC for 8.00$ it will not be free anywhere except as an illegal pirate copy, if it comes here to DDB it will cost 8.00$ to help support Extra Life which is a great charity to help children.
Adding to the chorus: I would love to access both Minsc and Boo's Journal of Villainy as well as Domains of Delight in my D&D Beyond account. Please make this happen. :D
...even simple confirmation that Minsc and Boo's Journal of Villainy and Domains of Delight are eventually coming to D&D Beyond would go a long way toward vesting my patience against instead buying them on another platform first...
