I have the Eberron Player's Guide and Kingdom of Ghouls

[Glyfair]

Sorry, my spelling is horrible, but if I'm remembering correctly (but I could be wrong) 3.5 Artificers has something similar to a familar but it was a construct (it looked mechanical in the pictures I remember), i was asking if there was something similar to them in the book

The term you are looking for is homunculus.

They are a lot more golem-like in Eberron than the old school homunculus.

Whatcha gunna do now Rouse? I have a space in my game.

Cool!

I am playing a guy named Johnny Utah. He is a kleptomaniac bard who likes to pickpocket PCs and replace the contents he steals with live mice as he is trying to see what happens to the mice when PCs do things like shape shift or Fey Step.

Can you move the game to Washington? I hear the weather sux in California

Hold up, I'm a bit confused. You mentioned something about dragonmarks allowing the player to do a ritual for free, but then say that it doesn't give new abilities. Do you still need to take the second feat to do the ritual, or does the dragonmark essentially give you that ritual and the ability to use it - and secondly, do you mean you do it free as in doing the ritual costs you no gold or material costs or anything like that?

...Also, any new rituals? :3

Yeah I know but my spelling is hideous (hence my bad spelling of the plural form of homunculus) and I figured that it was easier saying it the round about way rather force Jack99 to translate my bad spelling

Awesome, Jack! Eberron makes me happy.

Can you clarify one thing for me though? Changelings. They're Doppelgangers, right? Up until now in 4E, the 4E Doppelganger is the creature formerly known as a Changeling in 3.5E Eberron. Now that we have a Changeling race in 4E Eberron, can you confirm that these are the same creatures called Doppelgangers in the 4E Monster Manual? What terminology exactly does the the EPG use?

Thanks, Jack!

Do they include all the marks for the Aberrant Mark (least, lesser, greater) and the info on House Tarkanan?

I say, I say again, how about those Aberrant Marks?

Jack99 could not be found for comment as it is believed he is currently somewhere in the future picking up the yet undisclosed campaign setting for 2011.

It's true!

The more I read of the EPG the further away June 16 seems to be. Definitely some sort of time dilation occurring here, with strong indicators of a causal relationship incurred by large quantities of *want*.

Thanks for the EPG info, Jack99! Good luck not stepping on any butterflies or making the Rouse into his own granddad or somesuch with further future-reveals.

Eladrins: Have always been there, but kept to themselves, only coming out of their 7 great cities when they occasionally world-falled. But after the Day of Mourning, they found themselves severed from the Feywild and stuck on Eberron. From what I read, they are still trying to get back.

Bear in mind that in this (and many of the other reveals here) you are seeing a vague, brief overview of a considerably deeper story - something which plays out in even more detail in the Eberron Campaign Guide, with Jack99 doesn't have yet (as far as I know!). Personally I'm quite pleased with the way we've drawn the eladrin into Eberron and the range of options it presents for Eladrin PCs... so I'm just saying "Don't judge a book by its brief internet spoilers!"

What bums me out about this and the FR books is that we aren't getting some story elements and whatnot in additional books (at least that's the plan as I understand it). Ebberon, especially, with its many intrigues and secrets needs more than 1 book (or two, as it were).

Well there is the future DDI content for the settings.
