D&D Lorwyn: First Light is a Dungeons & Dragons setting supplement created for the Magic: The Gathering setting of Lorwyn-Shadowmoor. This digital expansion was released on DND Beyond on November 18, 2025.[1][2][3] It converts Lorwyn-Shadowmoor to the existing DnD cosmology, rebranding it as a Domain of Delight demi-plane in the Feywild.

Description

“  While exploring the untamed wilds of the Moonshae Isles, you stumble across a shimmering portal bathed in a sunbeam that filters through the canopy above. On the other side lies Lorwyn—a whimsical realm of eternal daylight, wandering giants, mischievous faeries, and living incarnations of nature itself.  ”

Lorwyn: First Light introduces a new player species, Rimekin and a full bestiary of monsters from the plane. It helps you expand your Forgotten Realms adventures with new Fey-inspired character options and monsters from a new Domain of Delight in the Feywild called Lorwyn-Shadowmoor.[4]

Wizards of the Coast has positioned Lorwyn: First Light as being a tie-in to their new D&D Forgotten Realms books, even though the two settings have had no previous contact in terms of their lore or past products for either D&D or Magic: The Gathering.[5]

You can purchase this D&D Beyond exclusive digital supplement as part of the Forgotten Realms Ultimate Bundle, which retails for $159.99 USD and gives you access to the two books Adventures in Faerûn and Heroes of Faerûn, plus three digital books (Netheril’s Fall, Astarion’s Book of Hungers and Lorwyn: First Light). Wizards of the Coast has also confirmed that the book can be purchased separately for $14.99 USD at a later date.[5]

Contents

  • 2 backgrounds
  • 2 feats
  • 2 magic items
  • 8 monsters
  • 2 new species, and advice for playing 8 additional species in the Lorwyn-Shadowmoor setting
  • Two adventure examples and a map appropriate for both

This new content can be used to represent heroic characters or mischievous creatures who hail from the Lorwyn-Shadowmoor setting. These creatures and characters may travel to the Forgotten Realms via fey crossings. Similarly, Forgotten Realms-based characters can travel to Lorwyn-Shadowmoor for the adventures included in the supplement—or those of your own devising!
