The Worldbuilder's Guild
Restructuring the Codex
We are currently moving articles around and changing the general structure of the Codex. Please come back later if you get lost!The Worldbuilder's Guild is the name for those who pay for a World Anvil subscription to support its development and to have access to its many, many features. There are many ranks to the guild, to cover a vast array of use cases and needs.
Freeman
Master
Master the tier to get if you want a particularly sleek experience for readers and authors alike. Push updates to your discord server, chart a course with advanced mapping features, and customize the world editor to your specifications!
Grandmaster
Grandmaster is the tier for TTRPG Devs, master GMs, and power users. With it, you may add RPG systems and create your own custom HTML + TWIG templates for sheets and blocks. It also adds custom styling containers and removes ads for viewers.
Sage
Sage is the tier for the pro with a plan. If your focus is on turning your world into something you can sell, or into a supplement for a product, you want to be a Sage.
Upper Guild—Limited Ranks
To access the upper Guild, you need to go through a quick application process—fill out this form to get started! These ranks are intended for World Anvil super fans who especially wish to support the ongoing project.
Inner Sanctum
For the World Anvil champion
This is the rank to take if you want direct input on the major upcoming feature sets of World Anvil. On the third Saturday of each month, in two sittings of one hour each, Dimitris and Janet host Inner Sanctum Coffee, a zoom video call where they discuss the upcoming features and use the feedback of the IS and above to shape these features to best benefit the use of those present.
Dimitris also more closely watches the Inner Sanctum Discord channel throughout the month, and so it is a great way to provide feedback on the site.
Legendary
For the accomplished Developer
This rank grants access to the Javascript Development pane. You may upload Javascript to each of your Codices (after the team has reviewed and approved it) and to RPG Systems you have made within WA. That Javascript executes for all visitors to your codex or on worlds which use your RPG System.
Deity of Creation
At this rank, you're contributing out of an extreme love for the platform. The Deities always have the direct ear of Dimitris and Janet, and get a 1 hour 1-on-1 meeting with them every 3 months—for consultation, advice, or whatever else (within reason!).

Additionally, features above your membership level stop working—for example inline secrets, map marker groups, and containers no longer appear. This is all restored by restoring membership.
This is to prevent exploitation of World Anvil's features.
If it was your world, and you lowered or dropped your subscription, it is likely that that world is outside of the list of worlds you may edit at a time. To modify this, you may change the operable worlds from your worlds list.
World Anvil will not provide refunds for any digital product subscriptions in any other case. In order to allow the user to test the product, World Anvil provides a free membership and monthly paid subscriptions.
What's the deal with the Titan?
Mapvember 2022
The story there is that we have a user who insisted on a higher rank than Deity so that he could give WA more, so he got his own rank which is basically double-deity.
