I couldn't figure out where exactly I should post this and hoped this was the best place.
I can not figure out how to add supernatural gifts to my characters on DDB. Me and my group are thinking about trying out the new hollow one from EGTW.
Also in the game I run, I was thinking about using supernatural gifts anyway.
So does anyone know how to add them in the DDB character creation?
You homebrew it, unfortunately. This was stated in the first post of the Wildemount support thread. Supernatural gifts (and lycanthrophy and vampirism) is not currently supported on DDB.

Trying to get your physical content on Beyond is like going to Microsoft and saying "I have a physical Playstation disk, give me a digital Xbox version!"
NOTE: You will need to setup a zendesk account (which is not your DnDBeyond.com account, the team uses this 3rd party software). It's easy to do and your votes are needed!
They should be published as feats don't you think?
D&D Beyond publish something official as something it's not; they can't 'bodge' out supernatural gifts as feats because they're not feats. DDB has to present the rules exactly as they are, or not at all. Users are not held to such standard, hence why DDB provides information on doing this yourselves
Pretty sure this isn't priority. They haven't even done the Company Positions from Aquisitions Incorporated.
The general feature system, which will enable supernatural gifts, company positions, guild ranks, epics boons and a loads of other stuff, is being worked on now that the character sheet service update (nine months of work) is finished. That update was holding back a lot of other stuff (including class feature variants and spells of the mark) and so has been a large focus.
Honestly I think it could be more similar to a Wondrous Item. They can have charges. They usually grant a spell use or resistance or something similar. And they can be given or taken away, unlike class/race features. I wouldn't mind having Supernatural Gifts in my Equipment tab in the end.
I just wish it had support to add spells and resistances on the backend of the character sheet. Like how do you add a supernatural gift spell on a non-spellcaster class?
that’s pretty ridiculous considering it says right in the description of the Theros book that you can add supernatural gifts to your character sheet easily.

Well shit.. You’re right…
Wield 13 unique god-weapons and gain supernatural gifts with just a click to your character sheet
bit of false advertising right there…
@Mod - it’s been exactly a year since your last post saying it’s being worked on. Any updates? Or is it possible and I’m just missing it?
Can we possibly get a similar new update? I found this information exceptionally helpful in knowing the content and timeframe for the awesome features You all make.
I have groups who regularly use such things as the supernatural gifts. This is something we would really love for the team to actually get around to. It is a lot of work but it looks like it would make a lot of people happy
I've constantly heard this: "is being worked on now that the character sheet service update (nine months of work) is finished." I've heard it for many months, with no actual evidence of any results, to me it seems like it has become the standard dodging the question answer. Do you have anything more substantial than "it's being worked on"? If not could you maybe use some other standard dodging the question response. A "it's being considered" would not give hope since I'm kinda tired to hear the "it's being worked on" and years later the thing is still not done...

Well that's disappointing

It this being reconsidered now that Mythic Odysseus of Theros is out?

how do you add it as a homebrew feat, and make it available to any class?

PbP 🎲: Tyekanik; Moneo Noree; Korba Muris; & occasional DM:
Almost two years now since this post, and we still can't add Supernatural Gifts and Epic Boons.
Can we possibly get a similar new update? I found this information exceptionally helpful in knowing the content and timeframe for the awesome features You all make.
I literally just bought Mythic Odyssey of Theros and I wish I had read this thread before doing so. I'm very disappointed.

Please, add in supernatural gifts. My players are allergic to remembering they have these.
