Not every negative opinion is an indicator of upset. I don't like songs that are basically half a verse and 5 repetitions of the chorus, but I'm not upset when they come on the radio.I like the ancient dragons thing, mostly because i don't necessarily think that truly ancient wyrms are actually totally distinct from gods, but also partly because I think the Host are amalgamations of the stories told about archetypal figures, and even if there is some kernal of a true deific entity at their core, their nature and what they mean to the world is about those archetypes and stories.Yep. It's just inside a bigger and harder to penetrate crystal sphere. Basically, all of Eberron are just "berks". Honestly, it's lucky for me and my group that Eberron has always been heavily pushed as a setting that you make your own, where canon doesn't matter, because I despise Planescape's takeover of all of DnD, and this might have killed my interest in Eberron if I felt inclined to take it seriously.Ugh. World, cosmology, setting, whatever.So, fanart and a description in an edition that came how long after the (bad) decision was made to make them the same? Okay?Man...yeah. It's rough.Fair enough! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />Yeah IMO the planescape version of multiverse is...boring, except as entirely it's own thing with no connection to, say, Eberron or Krynn or Toril.I mean I love that stuff, but IMO making all of DnD a setting, rather than truly a collection of separate settings, makes each "setting" less than it would be otherwise, especially when the gods are really just all the same gods. Paladine leaving the world or giving up his divinity for the sake of balance means nothing when he is just one of potentially infinite aspects of the cosmic male half of Io.</blockquote>
