Message: <blockquote data-quote="Zardnaar" data-source="post: 7159435" data-attributes="member: 6716779">Eberron was designed from the ground up as a kitchen sink setting. Darksun was designed from the ground up to be very different from the PHB. The designers went out of their way to be very different from the PHB deliberately (Troy Denning). The original ideas was not to even use things like elves, halflings and Dwarves and they designed a few ideas off the art of Brom as he turned in concept sketches.  4E tried the kitchen sink thing, it tanked and offended the fans of FR for example (and Darksun, Eberron not so much). Baker explicitly designed Eberron to be anything goes- magitech, multicultural cities, no fixed alignments for NPC races etc. If you want that play Eberron if you don't want that play Darksun or Krynn.</blockquote>
