D&D 5E Keith Baker: Exploring Eberron

Eberron creator Keith Baker has been busy recently! He has unveiled the cover to his new book, to be released in July on DMs Guild in PDF and Print on Demand hardcover. It will dive into parts of Eberron that have received little attention in prior books, including the undersea civilizations and the planes.

Keith sent Sly Flourish a PDF copy of the book, which Sly flipped through

Definitely a daelkyr symbiont. I don't recall any in Rising fitting that description, so it might be something from Exploring Eberron.

I saw that as just another tentacle eyestalk of the creatures they were fighting, not as coming from the dwarf.

Kalashtar for sure. As for the class, that's much harder to pin down: Medium Armor for as implied by the metal pauldron and leather pants, but I don't know of any current power or ability that can summon two weapons at the same time.

Now my question is: What is that eyeball growing out of that dwarf caster's back?

I had a feeling Kalashtar. The symbiote is something with the dwarves now in 5E Eberron from what I recall.

Also, he's started a series of blog posts now that Rising from the Last War is out. I'll update this as new posts come out.

He did say if everything goes smoothly, this will be out by the end of the year.

Here's hoping!

New post edited into the OP - Exploring Eberron: The Cover. Confirms that yes that is a symbiont (eye stalk?) on the dwarf that has new rules in the book, plus the other characters are using new subclasses from the book.

The sight of that dwarf with a Daelkyr claw wrestling a Tsucora Quori has me imagining them trading insults.

Quori: “abomination!”
Dwarf: “ugly freak!”
Warforged: “WHAT?”
Dwarf & Quori: “not you!”

Yup, to make Eberron Dwarves more distinct, they've amped up the Daelkyr presence beneath the Mron Holds, and the Dwarves are actively fighting them and some are looting the bad juju magic items.
