Unlimited Holy Water exists as the River Oceanus, and the sea around the Seven Heavens. Tap into that with your own custom Decanter of Endless Water, and you can fire hose away armies of Fiends. :)

Tucker's Kobolds are great theory crafting, but there's so many ways to get rid of them with magic the players had to be idiots. You simply set out to get rid of them, and they die easy. On controlling tech items: Rule 1 of Combustible Materials: The more combustible a material is, the more...

Nature doesn't ahve traditions because nature is not intelligent. Nature has instincts. Sapients have traditions, which are just standardized codes of conducts for getting involved with one another. Saying orcs can't have kingdoms means demons can't have them either, yet there are tons of demon...

CE kingdoms aren't kingdoms, they are hordes ruled by the strongest. Saying they can't work is like saying Nature can't work because it doesn't have laws. The weak do what they are told because they are weak and live in fear of punishment. That punishment is usually fatal and very graphic in CE...

I would say that Evil is the most well-known of the forces, because it is the Alignment which accepts the fewest, or no, limits upon its behavior. CE is defined by no restrictions whatsoever, it is simply a matter of scale and fear. LE has a smattering of honor and discipline, but whether those...

It would start shifting hue and color, lacking depth in CE, etc. He'd still show CE, since he's colored by his past, and he hasn't actually undertaken those good deeds for good reasons to prove that his beliefs are real. It takes more than intentions to change an existing alignment. The orc...

Devils most certainly have a culture, traditions and laws. It's pretty famous. It's called Hell, in all its many layers. Hobgoblins are imperialists. As LE< they definitely have their own internal codes and laws they didn't come up with. Agree with you that ALignment can't be relative. That...

traditions are probably the only things they have, since they don't have laws and rules. Me have biggest fist make rules is quite a tradition.

I have a novel on Royal Road called Power of Ten: Sama Rantha. Part of the world is the idea that the Alignments are Real Things, and that they stand independent of what little mortals believe. That is VERY different from how a game has to proceed, because players tend to define Good as what...

Just to point out: The Wealth Limit of Sharn is not the Wealth OF Sharn. It's the most money you can buy/spend at any one time, until the economy manages to recover. So, what it means is a level 20 character can temporarily break the bank of the biggest city in Sharn if he buys/sells to full...

Tetra, there's an entire organization in Faerun devoted to information warfare, dominated by Bards. It's called the Harpers. They've been doing information warfare since forever. Divination magic is all on the side of Faerun. Eberron sends in those agents, they'll be sniffed out in no time by...

and you have to be level 21 to cast it. How many level level 21 casters are there in faerun? Literally dozens. Every Zulkir of Thay, for starters..., every one of mYstra's chosen who is a Caster, and so many bloody others.

Okay, part of the problem here is that this is a Spelljammer discussion, which moves us to the common element of 1-3e, where SPelljammer exists. Eberron is also fundamentally and originally a 3e world. Money and equipmentwise, eberron and the other worlds all use the same price lists, and the...

This is not true. Eberon's troops have to obey the same cost/level that Faerun's and Oerth's do. They have the same equipment lists, they'll have the same basic gear... and generally speaking, they are a level or two lower. Eberron has magewrights who can use wands, but faerun and Oerth have far...

He's a /15. he's exceptional by definition. he's just in an unexceptional job.

So does finding a Warrior/15 working in the forgerooms of Sharn. That still doesn't meant everyone is a fifteen, or even a Six. Exceptional people are going to be rare, and in Eberron, they are much rarer then Faerun.

Sure, and you can run across a Warrior/15 slumming in the pits of Sharn, too. But you're claiming they are ALL level 15... which is pretty excessive, no matter how you look at it. Why, that's almost equal to Netheril or Myth Drannor! :P Being able to stumble across high level characters in the...

Hero-deities and quasi-deities are about on the power of the Seven Sisters and the Chosen of the Gods of Faerun, like Elminister, at best. Azuth is a former mortal, as is Savros, who competed with him for godhood as the Lord of all Spells. So were Bane, Baal, Myrkul, Cyric, Kelemvor, Torm...

I"d have to see a statistical stat block stating that. Magically powerful in Eberron means a bunch of /4 to /6's with PC Classes instead of being Magewrights. If that was a city of 92000 level 15+'s, sorry, the dragons wouldn't be running Argonnessen at all. They'd have been obliterated for...

Whoa, nelly. I like Oerth more then FR, but this is just not true. Zagyg is simply a demigod, and like a chaotic counterpart to Azuth (who is a lesser god, not a demigod). Faerun is chock full of post-20 characters, and the vast majority of them are archmages. Some, like the Simbul, are post-30...
