[QUOTE="mhacdebhandia, post: 3361685, member: 18832"] In Keith's conversion notes for the Savage Tide adventure path, he explains that there are native outsiders born of Khyber which are virtually identical to the fiends of Shavarath and other planes, though they are of course rarer than the rakshasas who dominate the Lords of Dust. In fact, it would be a mistake to equate the eternal three-cornered war of Shavarath with the Blood War of core D&D/Greyhawk/Planescape. Demons, devils, and archons may be organised into overarching factions on the battlefields of Shavarath, but "demons" and "devils" and "celestials" as a type of creature explicitly do [b]not[/b] exist as singular factions across the planes of Eberron. The nalfeshnee and lemures of Dolurrh, the balors and pit fiends of Fernia, the bebiliths of Lamannia, the succubi of Mabar, the gelugons (ice devils) of Risia: these creatures have nothing to do with the armies of Shavarath. The same goes for the lantern archons of Irian. The only group of fiends which is as unified in Eberron as it is in the core cosmology is the yugoloths of Mabar. [/QUOTE]
