D&D (2024) Keith Baker's new Eberron Book

[dave2008]

You can preorder Frontiers of Eberron: Quickstone which uses the 2024 rule updates for Eberron fans (From Keith Baker, Imogen Gingell, Visionary Production and Design)

Have Wand—Will Travel​

Join Eberron setting creator Keith Baker on a journey across the Western Frontier, the contested land that lies between the ancient kingdom of Breland and the rising nation of Droaam. Frontiers of Eberron: Quickstone takes a deep dive into this untamed region, exploring the towns and denizens of this dangerous land.

The Western Frontier is a place where creatures long thought of as “monsters” mingle with clever smugglers and brave wandslingers. In addition to lore about the region and a detailed look at the border town of Quickstone, Frontiers of Eberron: Quickstone includes a host of new options for players and Dungeon Masters. Play as a harpy, gargoyle, or medusa! Use Nemesis Sorcery to get an edge on your opponent, or harness the powers of the Bloodhound Ranger to track an elusive foe. Take advantage of new feats, backgrounds, and other options to become a master wandslinger, including unique rules for engaging in arcane duels. Claim mighty artifacts such as Kharash’s Promise or the hand of the daelkyr Orlassk! Frontiers of Eberron: Quickstone is fully updated for the 2024 version of the fifth edition rules for DUNGEONS & DRAGONS, and includes a new system for creating dragonmarked characters in Eberron.

In addition to new monsters, treasures, and descriptions of the communities and cultures of the Frontier, Frontiers of Eberron: Quickstone includes the adventure “Heart of Stone” by Imogen Gingell. This provides a story arc that will take characters from 1st level up to 5th level. Can the adventurers uncover the true threat behind a cult spreading across the Western Frontier? There’s only one way to find out. Strap on your wand and mount your tribex—we ride at dawn!

I could be mistaken, but I think Keith said this is the last project he is doing for Eberron for the foreseeable future. He wants to explore a new story / world IIRC.

I think if you pre-order for roll20, you get the adventure all set up also.

why isnt this just official content, like how do they have keith baker willing to make so much content for a setting, and none of it is just made official.

Its so weird.

"Imogen Gingell" is 100% a gnomish name.

Keith Baker wrote it. As far as I’m concerned it is official.

That’s the beauty of DMs Guild.

I was hoping for a longer adventure but I am still excited for this book!

Would be nice if it was added to D&D Beyond though. ;-)

As @SlyFlourish pointed out on his podcast this week, stuff getting on D&D Beyond is completely up to WotC, an opaque process (presumably bolstered by NDAs) and probably pretty strategic in what gets on and what doesn't.

Yes, and it seems unlikely that Keith, who has publicly stated he is done with Eberron, would even seek to try and get it on DDB.

Luckily, subclasses, backgrounds, feats, species, and magic items are all things you can add to DDB yourself via homebrew. I've already added a bunch of things from his other 5e Eberron books for my Eberron campaign.
