Faction Guide - Adventurers League

Faction Guide. Factions are an important part of the D&D Adventurers League experience. Belonging to a faction sometimes means having responsibilities, but it also carries with it support and rewards for service. If you ever switch factions or leave a faction, you lose all ranks and renown with the old faction, and must start at the lowest rank with zero renown with your new faction. It is important to note that characters made with races from Volo's Guide to Monsters are required to have a faction. If you leave your faction, the character is no longer playable, unless of course they're moving to another faction approved for that race. Additional information on the specific factions can be found in the D&D Adventurers League Player's Guide.
