Exploring Eberron - Dungeon Master's Guild (D&D) 

This is great! How did the warforged get to faerun in your campaing? I ask because I've been thinking about how to play a warforged in faerun (as my group mainly plays in the forgotten realms) and the idea I had was have my PC be completely different from the lore of eberron, and instead be native to Mechanus. This way the warforged in faerun ar either sent to the material plane (like with a mission from a god whose realm is located on Mechanus, such as Helm or Gond), summoned (either accidentaly or not) or lost (just, like, fell through a portal or something). I was thinking about making a Clockwork soul sorcerer to really doble down on the idea =D

@@braulioservodedeus they were enslaved (and possibly many of them even forged) by the Formians... this is a second campaign that follows a previous one..which altered the balance of the world... there was a massive war that was won by an alliance between the formians, the Thay nation and a few other groups. in payment for their involvement, the formians reclaimed one third of Tauril for themselves. when they moved in, they brought along their warforged. the current campaign is set 40 years later, with a lot of lore and history lost to most.. the party started out working for the formans, then stuff happened and along the way we sort of liberated the warforged from their masters' control over them. my main character evolved in a bit of a problematic relationship with the rest of the party, so I parked him and created the warforged I described. My character is actually of an older "make" than most other warforged, made by a human, and he possibly, but unknowingly, holds the secret to the origin of the species.. he's on a quest to find the right deity and to broker a deal with them... to find answers to the great questions such as the mortality (or lack thereof) of warforged.. or whether they have a soul, how they could procreate and such... His quest and the generational facts are just things I came up with for the backstory..the DM is rolling with it. Eberron did not even get a mention, in our game, lol Gond is an underappreciated god. another character I love to play is a human forge cleric of Gond.. with the clan crafter background. he's an absolute tank and a blast to play out of combat too.

@@dehro Amazing! Thanks for the reply! Very nice history on your campaings! I completely agree on Gond being underapreciated. My first idea was to have my PC (and all the other warforged) as being created by him directly, as it fits with his creativity and ingenuity, and his realm having some sort of city of constructs.

oh you are totally right! I don't know how I missed that. Thanks!

woo!

Hope you enjoy it!

Or maybe heading towards it, and they have to somehow stop the train before it gets there.

Creators aren't allowed to use WotC intellectual property without paying license fees. In this case, that fee is 20% of royalties ( with an additional 30% going to the platform that hosts the content, OBS, which is the same cut they take for non-WotC books on DrivethruRPG). Since there's no other way to get the book, I hope people will dive in and support Keith's work even if they'd rather more of the cash go straight to him. Fans can also subscribe to his Patreon which supports him directly. www.patreon.com/keithbaker

at least thru DMs guild, the author does get about half the money I believe.

@@vpuigdoller Except for all the stuff they scrape off of homebrew and 3rd party sites. And the platforms they ceaselessly copyright troll. Plus the hundreds of authors they have stolen from. But at least some people get a cut of their own work sometimes when it benefits the brand.

Yeah, I really am not wanting to give WotC anymore business after realizing they would destroy their game by siding with folks who compare the black community to a non-human fantasy creature that is traditionally less intelligent and violent. I'm sorry, but I don't see how that's NOT racist towards the black community. There are humanoids of every color in this game so seeing an orc and a black person being the comparison, it seems flat out racist to me.

@@samantha2024 An extremely important point.

I thought the changeling was asking the warforged which one is better because they don't have genders either, they can change to be whatever they want. Interesting that one pic can be interpreted so many ways!

nope!

My life has been a lie.

I agree! Glad you enjoy~

That only applies to objects not enemies

There is also a second under the thunder sea section

@@PoliticoNerd oh nice ty! ^^

I'll look into them :)

Good question! Ravenloft really is the meta right now, it's what people are searching for so it behooves me to make Ravenloft videos. I do have a Shifter Eberron script I need to finalize, so I haven't abandoned the setting by any means. Just trying to optimize my time and energy.

As of right now you can't get this into D&D beyond unless you create custom content and just copy/paste. However with WotC owning D&D Beyond now and the DMs Guild we can hope they create a way to incorporate dms guild content into the platform, in the future.

@@Jorphdan I see "Homebrew" content on DnDBeyond, so I was hoping someone had gone and put it all in there somehow. But its good to know the two properties are owned by the same entity, so there is hope.

do it!

@@Jorphdan your videos really peaked my interest into this type of setting.

The pdf is only 25

Yes, because you're only paying for a pdf, I'd rather have the actual book then a digital file

Oh really!? I pulled it from Keith's blog. I'll go take a look and update it!

Updated the thumbnail! Thanks for the heads up.

There are sales, I snagged it for $45. However it is expensive because WotC takes a 50% cut. In order for them to turn a profit the price had to be raised. It's not for everyone, but if you're an Eberron fan it is worth it.

@@Jorphdan Thanks! I’ll definitely check it out. Your videos rock btw

To clarify some misconceptions, Wizards only takes 20% of each sale, which IMO is a fair royalty share for licensing their intellectual property. The other 30% goes to the platform that hosts the product, OBS, which is the same percent they charge for non-WotC-related books on DrivethruRPG.

@@laurahirsbrunner631 20% isn't "fair" if they basically *force* people to *ONLY* use DrivethruRPGs. Sorry but if the only option is for them to push you right into another partner that demands another 30% for their own then however Wizards and DrivethruRPG decide to split their part it's still a massive, unreasonable 50% If Wizards was willing to put that at 15% and let creators distribute PDF content on places other than drivethru then you *could* have a case but as it stands, just because they technically don't take 50% themselves doesn't means they don't force content creators into a position where they need to do that regardless. If they want control of the distribution they should run their own damn digital store: it's not that difficult. It's just typical, peak laziness on their part at the literal expense of creators.
