I am your √(-1) friend<a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/PennedPossibilities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PennedPossibilities</a> 634 — MC POV: How much do you value companionship? Do you always keep people around, or do you prefer to be alone? Nymeria: "We're communal by nature, like regular wolves. There's an intimacy that you kine lack in your communities.... Your shunting of people into designated areas to maintain the artifice of division.I prefer keeping with company when possible. And preferably still, the company of kindred spirits."<a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/werewolf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#werewolf</a> <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/werewolves" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#werewolves</a> <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/Eberron" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Eberron</a>

I am your √(-1) friend<a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/PennedPossibilities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PennedPossibilities</a> 632 — What originally inspired your WIP’s plot?Well, the last campaign was in it's last leg, and the group had a light steampunk itch, so we decided on <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/Eberron" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Eberron</a> for the next campaign. I'd already decided I wanted to play a <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/werewolf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#werewolf</a> , then I started reading the Eberron setting material. I read about the Silver Crusade / Silver Purge where The Church of the Silver Flame 'valiantly' hunted therianthropes to near extinction to stop an outbreak and spread of them. And me knowing the history of IRL similar events went "This was an intentional genocide, and the spreading outbreak was a narrative to justify it." And so I started writing "The Darkness of Silver", a collection of short stories revolving around Nymeria who was about 20 when the genocide started, her survival through it, and then dealing with the ripples from it.

Sen(2) What do <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Eberron" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Eberron</a> fiends actually look like?If running a fiend-heavy game one might be breaking out vrocks, hezrous, nalfeshnees, etc.To me these don't look right as native fiends. I propose reskinning.The only canon native fiends are the Rakshasa. They appear as normal tiger-people apart from the backwards hands.I like the idea that khyber makes fiends to resemble mortals but it can never get it right. Tries to make a rabbit but it gets a jackalope instead.<a href="https://mas.to/tags/dnd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dnd</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/dungeonsAndDragons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dungeonsAndDragons</a>

SenOkay, time for some <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Eberron" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Eberron</a> ideas.(1) According to K.Baker, Khyber aka Eberron's underdark is full of demiplanes. I can work with that but it strongly implies to me Khyber is its own plane or at least its own layer.What if Siberys, Eberron and Khyber were three adjacent planes or layers of the material plane? I like this idea bc it implies there's cool stuff going on up in Siberys we just don't hear about it.I'd like to think the moons are inhabited.<a href="https://mas.to/tags/dnd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dnd</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/dungeonsAndDragons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dungeonsAndDragons</a>

The barbarian is a werewolf, my cleric is a werewolf. Barbarian player doesn't know my cleric is a werewolf as out of game I've said ZERO about it (on purpose), in-game the hints have been double sided easily misinterpreted as something else going on (PTSD, and her cover story is as being part of a faction that participated in the Silver Purge) And we're at a point where the Barbarian (in-chacter) has unintentionally caused cracks in my Cleric's facade, and its about to cause her to lose the control she's been having to self medicate to maintain.(I'll also be glad as after the reveal I can mostly drop her asshole persona she puts on as part of the facade... It takes a lot of energy to keep consistent pretending to be an smirking asshole)

Procrastination GoblinEnjoyed my group's Sunday evening session of <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/Eberron" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Eberron</a>. Roaming the rat markets. Combat on a sewer platform. Some exploration, some delving. Then the party adopted a goblin Del Boy.

SenI wanted <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Eberron" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Eberron</a> gnomes who weren't defined by their nation's secret police. (Canon Eberron has pro-police sentiments fr.)So I decided they must've created a penal colony at some point. I sited it in Lhazaar, decided it would've declared independence during the war,and now there's an anarcho-capitalist island nation off my Eberron's Khorvaire's coast because obviously anarcho-capitalist gnomes will be an improvement<a href="https://mas.to/tags/dnd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dnd</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/dungeonsAndDragons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dungeonsAndDragons</a>

I am your √(-1) friend<a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/PennedPossibilities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PennedPossibilities</a> 606 — Is your MC keeping any secrets? Can you tell us more without giving away any spoilers?Nymeria has been hiding that she's a werewolf for the last 36 years, and masquerading as a Silver Pyre mercenary who are a quasi off-shoot/parallel group of the Silver Flame (yes the same bastards that carried out the genocide of her people). She killed Jopaul (member of The Pure Flame who created the Feral Plague) 11years ago, and used the on going war between the kingdoms to quietly track down & destroy his remaining research whether or not it was even related to the how he created the Feral Plague. So yeah, she's got massive secrets...<a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/Werewolves" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Werewolves</a> <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/Werewolf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Werewolf</a> <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/Eberron" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Eberron</a>

SenIf warforged can benefit from potions then someone somewhere— likely a warforged— will have invented a cheap potion that can get them drunk.<a href="https://mas.to/tags/Eberron" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Eberron</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/dnd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dnd</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/dungeonsAndDragons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dungeonsAndDragons</a>

Procrastination GoblinThird <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/Eberron" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Eberron</a> session was a blast. Annoyingly I made a couple of rookie GM errors due to a lapse in concentration, but my players seemed not to mind. Despite this, the murder was solved, and now the PCs have turned their attention to delving for loot.After talking to one NPC who believes the Lord of Blades is a power-mad supremacist, one of my players started calling the warforged cult leader, "Steel-on Musk."

Alex KeanePut the last two sessions of my <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/Eberron" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Eberron</a> game into a single blog post so that I have notes that they happened.(I actually forgot that session 7 had happened as we sat down to play session 8, knew the events but forgot that it had been a separate session...)<a href="https://alexanderkeane.com/posts/session-stories-aftershocks-of-the-last-war-session-7-8/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://alexanderkeane.com/posts/session-stories-aftershocks-of-the-last-war-session-7-8/</a><a href="https://dice.camp/tags/DND" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DND</a> <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/SessionStories" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SessionStories</a>

Alex KeaneSaturday night was the first <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/Eberron" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Eberron</a> game in a while for me.The party stopped an execution of political prisoners by burning, and also uncovered a plot to goad a resistance movement into "attacking first" so that the Archbishop could use the attack as an excuse to get permission for disproportionate force and gain notoriety and power within the Church of the Silver Flame for himself and the Pure Flame movement.So of course they rushed straight into the cathedral. And that's where we ended.

SenIn my <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Eberron" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Eberron</a> the language Giant is as much a language of arcane magic as Draconic if not moreAfter all how much high arcana must have been brought back from Xen'drik, advancing the state of arcane magic? The Cul'sir Empire was magitech before the Five Nations ever were and there's definitely been tech transfer there.

SenI can't accept Droaam as written. I find the basic nation idea implausible and can't let it go.This being <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Eberron" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Eberron</a> I've taken artistic liberty to remake it as a Mirkwood-like sibling to Eldeen, so it's okaySimilar issue w/Sarlona. I can't accept how the plane Dal Quor is supposed to work. So nothing about Riedra works for me. Gotta overhaul that too.I'll reject an entire continent of canon if I can't suspend disbelief about one premise. Shit has got to make sense.<a href="https://mas.to/tags/dungeonsAndDragons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dungeonsAndDragons</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/dnd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dnd</a>

SenReading over all these thematic 3e <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Eberron" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Eberron</a> prestige classes makes me thinkWhat I should do is take existing supplement-book subclasses, or good 3rd-party ones, and reskin to make them Eberron flavoredlike reskin the Gloom Stalker Ranger as the Gloaming-bound Ranger fr'exso players have setting-thematic character options right in front of them. One might opt for gloaming-bound for the heck of it but later learns more abt the Gloaming and gets drawn into the lore.<a href="https://mas.to/tags/dungeonsanddragons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dungeonsanddragons</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/dnd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dnd</a>
