[QUOTE="Z. H. Darkstar, post: 6818824, member: 6746780"] I wouldn't want it any other way. That way those who want to have their stable of Warforged and Artificers will have their opportunity to do so, while the detractors can take solace in knowing that the faucet will eventually be closed to prevent a complete overtaking of the AL gene pool. It would also encourage replayability by having similar exit requirements as S4 will have. A little homogeneity in how Eberron-native characters make their way into Faerun is a small price to pay to add a significant boost of heterogeneity to the AL gene pool. Now the next two things I'm bringing up are not meant to be discussed further in this thread, but are thoughts that came to mind as a result of this discussion so far. I'll start the appropriate threads if others want to discuss them further. Let me know via PM. 1. Tyranthraxus mentioned how Half-Orcs may be perceived in Barovia. Imagine how a native of Athas would react to stepping into Eberron and vice-versa. Sometimes those Fish Out of Water situations can lead to memorable gameplay moments. 2. If WotC continues to create plane intersection stories, then perhaps Planescape/Spelljammer might make a return for the swansong season of 5e. I would imagine that the Allowed Rules for that season would see pretty much every major Story Origin come into play or have the longest entry for its Story Origin, having key components that are representative of each plane involved. PHB + (SCAG or EEPC or CoS splat or Eberron splat or Dark Sun splat or ...) + Planescape/Spelljammer backgrounds [/QUOTE]
