Once you submit your magic item, a moderator will review it for approval. If approved, your item will be added to the official Magic Item Catalog, and your name will be credited as the creator. Unique or powerful items may be added to quests or offered as rewards for special events!
Submission Guidelines:

- Follow the general guidelines for magic item creation based on D&D 5e rules (Dungeon Master’s Guide, Xanathar’s Guide to Everything).
