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.

I'll edit the OP for clarity



Quori have been fiends in past editions and will be fiends again in ExE - they're nightmare spirits and thus fundamentally comprehensible, plus this makes sure stuff like Divine Sense and Dispel Evil and Good work. But yes it's definitely a psionic metal and not Byeshk.

They're still Aberrations. Being an Aberration doesn't make you incomprehensible, being a Daelkyr does. They're Aberrations, so that those spells don't work. Riedrans, craft with solidified emotion, a component of psionics, and similar to Husksteel, maliable soul-stuff.
