D&D 5E Keith Baker's Eberron/Ravenloft Crossover Comes Next Week!

Eberron-creator Keith Baker will be launching an Eberron/Ravenloft crossover supplement next week on DMs Guild. It's called Dread Metrol: Into the Mists, and will be released on Tuesday, July 13th.

The queen watches as the sun sets and the undead lay siege...

Tall, handsome, powerful...
the undisputed master of House Cannith is also a new kind of artificer...

The monsters of the mists aren't always the ones with claws or snake hair...
they could be the victims...

Deals are needed to cross the Bridge of the Dead...

Ok, the looks of both Eberron and Ravenloft semi-modernity mix reallyyyyyy well.

 

[Bolares]

This is why I love the Dm's Guild

 

[LuisCarlos17f]

My best wishes for this title, but I would like to see more projects not linked with the "alpha trinity" Forgotten Realms-Ravenloft-Eberron.

 

[darjr]

I cannot express how cool this is!

I really appreciate how Keith Baker and Ed Greenwood have leveraged the platform to put out this sort of content.

 

[OakenHart]

Really look forward to this. Exploring Eberron was great, actually went ahead and got the hardcover.

I may be mistaken, but I believe those are the only three settings available to creators on the DMs Guild. I think settings open up when WotC publishes an official book for it--so no Dark Sun or Dragonlance unless and until they have a book for it.
That said, I am really excited to see this one. I love the idea of mixing these settings together.

Theros and Ravnica are also available for creators on the DMsGuild, but they are of course MTG settings so don't make much sense for an Eberron crossover.

It's kind of giving me Carnival Row vibes, and I consider that a very good thing.

I'm not gonna lie: My mind totally read the title of this crossover as Dead Metal: Into the Mists.

Ah well: ALLLLL ABOARD the Cyre 1313 Mourning Rail!!!

Until WotC allows original IPs on DMs G, it’s mostly what we’re going to get.
Though, I’d call it a lopsided “trinity” at best, FR gets a lot more love.

Ozzy just laughing in the background

 

[Ralif Redhammer]

Yeah, Eberron and Ravenloft work well together. Of the new domains, Cyre 1313 packs a lot of coolness into its shorter description.

So torn. I love Keith. I love Eberron. I do no like horror at all though...

If nothing else, I plan on using this to mine ideas for what metrol was like pre mourning

I think it'll be a good read at least. With the new Ravenloft, I didn't find it to be pure horror in a sense. Yes, some are, but some domains could be adapted to a non-horror idea. Like Falkovia, I think it is - every new moon, zombies invade the nation. It's a losing battle, and one of the themes is No Bad Decision, where the defenders just keep making bad long-term decisions that save them short term, like burn a city down rather than let it get corrupted. I think that could be interesting even in an orc horde sense.

 

[Paul Farquhar]

I might get this, is there any indication as to the level range?

It's a sourcebook for the Mournlands, I believe, not an adventure: basically, what if the Mournlands is a dimensional rift where the Domains of Dread can appear?
