B OROS LEGION
Adventures involving the Boros Legion might have a
military bent, focusing on small-scale conflict between
groups of Boros soldiers and bands of rioters or raiders.
The legion is generally a prominent force for law and
good in Ravnica, which makes it an appropriate home
guild for noble-minded player characters. Its holy bent
also makes villains drawn from its ranks particularly
dangerous and perhaps tragic.L EGION GARRISO N
The Boros Legion maintains garrisons throughout
Ravnica, ensuring that every neighborhood has a strong
military presence. They range from towering fortresses
to small bunkers like the one shown in map 4.2.LECION GARRISON ADVENTURES
Designed with defense foremost, a Boros garrison is
well suited for adventures that challenge the characters
to find a way in or fight their way out. The Legion Garri-
son Adventures table offers a number of possibil ities.LEGION CARRISON ADVENTURES

Access to the garrison is limited to a pair of 20-foot-wide
walkways elevated above street level and protected by
archers behind arrow slits. Two antechambers give the
Boros soldiers and angels ample opportunity to screen
anyone who seeks to gain entrance. Beyond them is a
large hall where troops can be mustered. To one side of
the mustering hall is a barracks area, with a kitchen, a
mess, food storage, and guest quarters on the other side.132 Cll\1^1 1llt l (I(( Al IN< AUVENfUIUS
An extensive array of wall niches in the lower tier (at
street level) provides storage space for archived records
and the like, and a basement beneath that includes food
storage and a well for fresh water, enabling the garrison
to withstand a long siege.
The upper tier includes more large halls, the com-
mander's quarters and office. and several niches-ac-
cessible only by flying from outside the garrison-that
serve as living quarters and watch-posts for the angels
stationed here. Parapets on the rooftop provide cover
for humanoid archers as well, and the broad open space
that they surround offers room for training and spar-
ring. Grass-covered ridges separate different training
areas and add a contrasting touch of nature's beauty to
the otherwise stony building.BOROS VILLAINS

Not too long ago, the leaders of the Boros Legion valued
zeal more highly than justice, believing that their mil-
itary might made their cause right and just. Although
the current guildmaster. Aurelia, has reversed her
stance on the issue. some voices within the legion still
espouse these views. Boros villains are typically intoler-
ant, self-righteous warmongers who abuse their power
