Xen'drik and Thunder Bay seem to come right out of R.E. Howard stories. They might sound cheesy to some people, but they put me in the right frame of mind for the setting.As for using Eberron as the title for the campaign, I think it is a little flat. The concept behind Eberron, a progenitor dragon's sacrifice using it's body as a haven for all creation, is not evoked in the name. Warforged, while initially sounds 'catchy', quickly becomes confused with Warcraft. The 'Forgotten Realms' is a huge misnomer now. When the box set first came out it might have been true. But with the glut of splatbooks for the realms in the last 17 years, there is not too much that is 'forgotten' in the Realms. I miss the old days. Nurse, change my depends!Grimslade</blockquote>
