You know, sexy, ancient, good at archery, good at magic, etc etc?To the OP, you keep saying "5e destroyed Eberron." Is the existence or non-existence of gods the only thing important to Eberron? I think that's limited thinking. It's like saying the only thing important to know about Brazil is it's a predominantly Catholic country. really?Gods from Toril? Pff, big whoop.For me, I don't give a rat's buttock to that aspect of Eberron.For me, I loved all the pulp action and noir stories I could potentially tell; the ubiquity of low level magic; the post-war environment; the steampunk aspect (warforged, airships, lightning rail) of the setting; the political intrigue and espionage.For me, 5e created Eberron. If WotC hadn't printed it, I'd never think to play in it. And guess what, now that there are at least 3 official non-FR settings, I'm going to use it in a future multi-verse spanning campaign including Ravnica, Eberron, Forgotten Realms, and whatever other settings exist officially (except Ravenloft - I personally have no interest in that setting). I may also add other unofficial settings like Planescape, Greyhawk, Dark Sun, and even non D&D settings like Midgard, Kalamar, Ptolus etc if I get motivated.Thank you WotC for adding that link from Eberron to the rest of the Multiverse. For me, that's a great part of Eberron.</blockquote>
