D&D General The Story of Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

That is an S-Tier plot hook, risking Eizatd WW2 through PC Shennanigans is amazing.

Yeah, I pointed it out in a different thread, but it's great stuff. Of course, the Construct Forge is a Level 17 bastion facility, so it's wholly end game stuff.

Creating a Warforged Titan takes 250 days and costs 200,000 gp. Here's the caveat in full: "Creating new Warforged Titans is illegal under the terms of the Treaty of Korth, which ended the Last War. Violating that treaty risks reigniting open war across Khorvaire."

"Treaty of Korth" should be "Treaty of Thronehold", but I'll let that error slide.

A fun detail I noticed as I was reading Forge of the Artificer: The art pieces in the book line up to tell a story when placed in the correct order.

Prologue: A Cannith Artificer is shown secretly creating a new Warforged, a clear violation of the Treaty of Thornehold, in a secret Creation Forge in Sharn.

Something I only just discovered, having reached the end of the book, is that these art pieces are all repeated in an appendix, mostly in order (it’s possible DDB has shuffled the order accidentally) to show the story in full.

I think the idea is that the Warforged created in the first images is the same one found killed by the Battle Smith.
