Message: <blockquote data-quote="Henry" data-source="post: 1719941" data-attributes="member: 158">MOST of Freeport practically SCREAMS to be placed in the Lhazaar Principalities. The political climate of Freeport would fit hand-in-glove.The gods wouldn't be that big of an issue, as the gods don't take an active hand, it's mostly through their worshippers - be they serpent people, or priests, assassins, etc. The Cthonic elements are also easy to assimilate: The Daelkyr and the Cults of the Dragon Below would fit easily there, but I swear not being able to run Madness in Freeport unadulterated would be a crying shame.

No, wait, that's not the EEEEEAAAARRRGH!" <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=":)" />The biggest problem might be from the impression I get that Freeport was designed with a VERY low-level and low-magic atmosphere in mind. The low-level is not an issue, but in Freeport so much is dependent on there not being magical conventional ways to solve certain problems. That could be influenced by Lhazaar's provincial nature, but the PC's would likely very rapidly change all that.The other problem that affects Eberron's feel is that Freeport has guns, and firearms and black powder make up an important part of the "feel" of the setting, but it's NOT a part of Eberron. You could remove them and replace with conventional magic, but you lose some of the "piratey goodness."</blockquote>
