[QUOTE="Shemeska, post: 3428261, member: 11697"] Given that Eberron (unlike FR, Krynn, Grayhawk, etc) was designed from the start to be within its own seperate cosmology, and has enough quirks to make its direct inclusion into a unified multiverse problematic, I'd prefer to respect that design and not seek to make a force fit into the Wheel/Planescape. If I did use it, I'd treat it perhaps as a seperate multiverse branched off of the Deep Ethereal, and I actually have an incomplete story floating around somewhere with some fiends from the Great Wheel wandering into Mabar and then into Eberron proper and 'conversing' with a number of that world's Rakshasas. Was just something idle to explore the difference in perspective between the two fiends given the differences in their natures as required by the cosmology difference. I might still finish it, but a lack of knowledge about Eberron made it difficult and I haven't picked it back up going on 9 months now. That rambling aside, since I don't have much exposure to Eberron, and what I have seen has never really sparked my imagination as far as setting feel and themes go, I don't have any particular motivating interest to incorporate the world into the planar rubric of the Great Wheel, and so it has never made an appearance in any of my campaigns, and I likely wouldn't allow anything from it to show up unless it could be hijacked and converted to something not tied down to it specifically.
