[QUOTE="Marandahir, post: 8566998, member: 6803643"] You're citing the section from [I]Eberron: Rising From the Last War[/I], yeah? Page 228: "Eberron is part of the Great Wheel of the multiverse, as described in the [I]Player's Handbook [/I]and the [I]Dungeon Master's Guide[/I]. At the same time, it is fundamentally apart from the rest of the Great Wheel, sealed off from the other planes even while it's encircled by its own wheeling cosmology. Eberron's unique station in the multiverse is an important aspect of the world: its planes have profound and shifting influences on the Material Plane, and it is sheltered from the influences and machinations of gods and other powers elswhere on the Great Wheel." This doesn't speak to demiplanes so much as Crystal Shards. Eberron's its own Material Plane with its own Cosmology. The Core Rules assume the Great Wheel, which is shared amongst most planes, but some Materials have their own planar siblings. Also, please excuse me, upon citing the above reference, I notice that Eberron does indeed have its own Plane of Shadow. Therefore, what we understand as the Shadowfell in the core setting is actually distributed across 3 planes. Furthermore, I mistakenly called the planes in Eberron as parts of Siberys, rather than as Dragonshards (the 13 moons that are beyond the Ring of Siberys). Finally, people have travelled through space to the Ring of Siberys and beyond to the Dragonshards physically, but nothing has ever been found physically beyond these realms. It's like a vast empty space beyond the locus of Eberron. You'd need some way to break through to another set of planes, like a Spelljammer perhaps, or Planeswalking, or some other form of Planar travel like getting caught on the Dread Metrol and somehow breaking out of Ravenloft and into a different material plane, if you wanted leave Eberron/Siberys/Khyber.
