Hmm, good point. Well, Thuranni and Phiarlan have both been high on my list of Dragonshard article topics, so I'll see if I can't help out that way (though there's a bit of a queue).

The highest level residents of the city use NPC classes, just as most of the population is supposed to. So you have an 18th level adept as high priest of the Blood of Vol. Sure, he's 18th-level -- but when you add it all up, that's roughly comparable to a 9th-11th level cleric, really. There are...

I'm afraid Staffan's on the money here... it's all covered on page 97 of the book. ;)

They may "appear" in the sense of "there's an illustration of a warforged adventurer", but Steel Shadows is the only one of the three adventures that actually includes warforged in the adventure. None of them include the lightning rail or airships. Steel Shadows is the big exception here, but...

Well, first is the issue of whether you believe that every character in the world has unlimited potential -- which, as I've said, I don't. Could every classical composer rival Beethoven if he just tried hard enough? Second is the question of how devoted the elf in question is to his task. Does...

What about figure 20/60, the Sharn cutthroat? While she's technically supposed to be a changeling, the only thing giving her away are the white eyes. Otherwise, you've got a blonde woman in leather armor with a rapier and a throwing dagger. Paint on some pupils and you're good to go!

*shrug* Stone Dog has hit it on the head. Jaela is the highest-level good cleric on Khorvaire, and if she ever leaves Flamekeep she's only 3rd level. Not to mention, as she's a child her physical stats suck, and as Stone Dog suggests, she's got a nation to run. Oalian is a 20th level druid, but...

That's right! Blame me! :p Just to explain where I was coming from, the goal of Eberron was to keep the racial stats from the core books intact -- so changing skill modifiers and such wasn't an option. In my case, the cultural aptitude for espionage and diplomacy isn't supposed to represent...

Actually, I think you will get many of these things, in time. The War of the Mark is a piece of history that will be examined as history in general is examined. There's a few critical pieces of information about it in the Sharn sourcebook, which is now only a month away. In short, it was a war...

Just out of total curiosity (everything I have to say on the warforged subject has already been quoted), where did you get these numbers, Henry? It sounds like you pulled them from somewhere offical, but the values don't make much sense to me. A set of adamantine half-plate has a market value of...

Unfortunately, this is the case. The amount of time I've been spending on message boards has been impacting my ability to get work done -- plus, I often have to deal with the same questions on multiple boards. So at the moment, I'm focusing on the WotC Eberron board. I'm a big fan of ENworld...

Interesting. This is a general question, not specifically directed at Nisarg (so as not to keep forcing him to come back into the conversation about a setting he hates). But my question is this: Is Eberron really more of a kitchen sink than any of WotC's other major settings? If you own the...

Just curious -- did you play with the "no healing" rule of the Mournland? If so, that's usually the big issue there -- how many hit points you have left after what you've been through.

Well, I'm something of an Eberron fan... Personally, I enjoy stats for useful/interesting NPCs or adveture hook ideas... or preferably both, linked together. Here's the stats for a member of the Wayfinder foundation, ad here's ways she could interfere with the party. Here's a Tharashk bounty...

Let's see how much of the thread can be blacked out!

Really? Me, I just loved it when folks said that I'd stolen all my ideas from Dinotopia or Iron Kingdoms. Oh, wait, I didn't. :)

AFGNCAAP, it's something that got left out...(SPOILER): As for pulp and noir elements, Henry has pretty much has me pegged. Sorry it didn't work for you, MM.

The main people I worked with were Bill Slaviscek, Christopher Perkins, and James Wyatt, all of whom are part of Wizards R&D. You're right in that going into the 125 pager and in the period following its selection, they did say "Here's what we really like, here's what we didn't like, here's what...

That's certainly fair: while, as I said, many elements come from my homebrews, the world as it stands in the CSB is newly forged (though of course, I'd been running games in it at home for almost a year and a half before it finally hit the shelves of your FLGS). I'm sorry to hear that it doesn't...

Well... First off, as has been alluded to by others, while Eberron in its coherent final form was not a world I had been running games in, it drew on ideas from multiple homebrew settings I'd run. Not the same thing as FR, no question, but not made up on the spot either. Furthermore, yes, one...
