In case that is my fault, I will try to restate and clarify my position. 1. I said that no *type* of story that fits in FR wouldn't fit Eberron. The discussion of existing APs is a matter of example, not the actual point.    1a. Conversion of a specific story isn't the same thing as putting a type of story in a setting. 2. I literally never suggested that you could just plop an AP down in Eberron with no changes. I did explicitly state that adjustment would have to be made, mostly in the details, and even gave examples of what changes would be required for Drow, dragons, Giants, and demons. So, on the subject of he APs that were built for FR, I disagree that conversion would be difficult. Adding a warforged body guard here, a changling barkeep (hooker, really? In an AP? Not likely), a ride on the Lightning Rail or an elemental Galleon or airship, adding the Houses as factions, etc is trivial work, and does not at all require changing the nature of the story. Even Curse of Strahd is easy. I'd run it as a Thelanis Manifest zone in Karrnath, tied to the story of an old Karrnathi Noble/warlord during the time right before Galifaran was united. From there...it requires almost 0 conversion work, except to change some names! But by making those stories Eberron stories, by changing NPCs to Shifters and Warforged and Zil Alchemists, and replacing Harpers and Zhents with the Silver Flame and the Chamber, or two Houses, or whatever, you take the *story* and translate it to a different world. However, the *actual point* was that any type of story they might want to tell *next* could be told in Eberron, and there are some types of stories that work there but not in FR.</blockquote>
