Message: <blockquote data-quote="Spatula" data-source="post: 5614415" data-attributes="member: 2198">"An eldritch machine did it" would be the Eberron version.Well, here's the setting's dirty little secret. Eberron cheats when it comes to NPC magic. The houses have access to stuff that the players don't, in the form of eldritch machines that require dragonmarks to use, or special dragonmark items, or special crafting spells, etc. that have been developed over the centuries. This allows the setting to have some high-magic flourishes without being FR. But this magic isn't detailed in the books because it isn't pertinent to adventuring.Aside from that, it's likely that the more powerful effects are generated by members with dragonmarks.And Oalian is over 1000 years old. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />I will echo the others who have said membership in an organization does not equal levels in a prestige class named after said organization.</blockquote>
