I'm an Old, and in the Old Times, before the Coming of the Empire, we had a lot of home campaigns where there were ancient high-tech ruins. In my Eberron, there are ancient Dhakaani low-to-moderate-tech ruins -- they were maybe developing flintlocks and dirigibles before the Daelkyr wiped out their Empire. Keith <a href="https://keith-baker.com/dragonmarks-goblins/" target="_blank">has said</a>:I love the idea that the Dhakaani just don't have equivalents of the magic wands and scrolls that the Dragonmarked make today, because they used a totally different technology (i.e., mundane technology) to do the same things. Their "wizards" were versions of bards and artificers, and they just didn't have the same sorts of wizards and clerics as the modern age. It gives them a very different flavor and a unique culture in Eberron.</blockquote>
