    Eberron Collector's Guide

    That's a good question. I can't sell Eberron products, but it's possible I can post it for free at my website - I'll check with WotC and see if they've got a problem with that.

    Eberron Collector's Guide

    Well, duh - it's the best way to spot metallic dragons! But I was actually referring to my website, where I just posted the first installment of what I hope to be an ongoing Eberron Q&A (and a link back here!).

    Dang, I'd forgotten this was here! Thanks for maintaining it - I'll post a link on HDWT!

    Ed Greenwood Presents: Elminster's Forgotten Realms

    I'll do a blog post about this at HDWT sometime in the next week, but there's certainly ways. One major example would be the Blood of Vol, which has slowly been creeping closer to my original vision but started out quite far from it in the 3.5 ECS. For that matter, my interpretation of Baator in...

    Lunch with Keith Baker in London?

    Hey! I'm passing through London on my honeymoon, and if there's anyone around who feels like talking about Eberron, Gloom, or D&D 13th Edition (I like to look to the future) I'd be happy to do so. My wife and I are thinking of a meetup lunch somewhere in the vicinity of the Oxford Circus tube...

    Eberron inconsistencies

    The conductor stone issue is one that's always troubled me. Personally, my answer is that the Conductor stones are a) heavy enough to be awkward (as noted, what you see is the tip of the stone), but more important, b) not magical. They are in essence *components*; the coach is magical, the...

    Eberron inconsistencies

    Working back... True. In 3.5, the concept was exactly as others have stated; there may very well have never been a 17th level wizard in the history of House Orien. Even Erandis Vol isn't that high as initially presented (I've always seen her as a villain whose capabilites should change over the...

    I'm glad you're enjoying it! Personally, The Queen of Stone is my favorite of my novels.

    Eberron inconsistencies

    A side note on this. Eberron is based on the idea that there is a place for everything in D&D - if you as DM decide to make use of that place. If a new book introduces a spell or item that makes everything fall apart, it's up to you to decide if that is available - and if it is, what you need to...

    Eberron inconsistencies

    This is what I get for staying off the boards for too long. I know the conversation is old, but to address a few points... This relies on a few basic assumptions. 1. The granted ability of the dragonmarks - the Cannith power to perform repair light damage once per day - is a trivial part of...

    What does your ENWorld name mean?

    Most people assume that my name comes from the secret cow level in Diablo II, and I am a fan of Diablo. But actually it comes from my first published d20 piece - a mini-adventure called "The Hellcow" in Atlas Game's En Route. You can download the adventure here.

    Turn Off a Gaze Attack

    As a side note, this is something that is described in mechanical terms in the Dragonshard article on the Medusas of Droaam. The original Medusa was cursed with a petrifying visage. Once medusas are a species as opposed to victims of a curse, it seemed logical to me that they would evolve ways...

    Gamma World is a Gas!

    True and true. I played a telekinetic yeti in the game I was in. I'm looking forward to running or playing another round!

    Eberron Collector's Guide

    I suggest that the first thing you do is to look at a few of the Dragonshard articles. They're entirely free, and give you a sense of the flavor of the world. Beyond that, the 4E Eberron Campaign Guide does (in my opinion) a good job of pulling together a lot of information that's spread across...

    Eberron Collector's Guide

    Indeed! Thanks for doing this, Echohawk! While it's not official, I've also been doing a little bit of Eberron support on my website, and I plan to continue with this in the future. Recent articles: Emailbag 9/25 - Dragonmarks & Droaam Gunpowder and Item Rarity The Order of the Emerald Claw...

    Eberron: Any new material published?

    I'm not a WotC employee, so I don't know what possibilities there are for future sourcebook support. However, I do expect to be writing more articles for DDI in the future (beginning with the follow-up to the recent Q'barra article, exploring the reptilian cultures of the region). Beyond that...

    Boondocking Gamer Tour, Am I crazy?

    Indeed I did. I was on the road for about three months straight before life interfered; since then I've been heading out sporadically whenever I have time (I just went out to LA last weekend). I'll be continuing to do it sporadically over the next few months, and I'm hoping to get another...

    Keith Baker's GenCon Games!

    Hey everyone! If you're going to GenCon, I'm running two games - both 4E D&D. On Sunday at 11 AM, I'll be running an Eberron game. There's two seats left, to be filled through a contest I'm holding here. Meanwhile, Saturday night, I'm running a game for charity. It's not in Eberron - it's...

    Eberron novel line. Any standouts?

    Hi Mikaya! The reason Gates of Night ends the way it does is because I have ideas for lots of stories I'd like to tell about the characters. I'd still like to tell those stories; it's simply a question of whether there will be an opportunity to do so through Wizards, and if not, if there's any...

    Keith Baker's GenCon Eberron Game

    I'm not sure if this belongs here, or in "Gamers Seeking Gamers", but hey. I'm going to be running an Eberron game at GenCon Indy this year, either at Thursday at 2 PM or Sunday at 11 AM. It's not an official GenCon event, so it's not being filled through the event system. Instead, I'm filling...
