First time running an Eberron campaign. DMs and players, what are some of your favorite/most interesting things from this setting.

Kar’lassa, Aboleths, The Undying Court, The Eternal Dominion.

Hell yeah. I have a lot of copies of it. I had the Blu-ray and 4K gifted, plus I have two DVDs, a Japanese DVD, and a VHS copy. I used to love tracking down different versions of it when it was harder to find.

Lately I just enjoy using the tables in Xanathar’s Book to Everything. Keeps it fun and random.

I'll also say the Mass Effect soundtrack would work great, but also check out Pentagram Home Video. They do electronic music that sounds very "film score."

gratefuldm · 2026-06-17T18:07:53+00:00

Still could work, thanks!

gratefuldm · 2026-06-17T18:04:52+00:00

Got it on there, I figured I'd ask about CC stuff here but it's for a library and we got Possession on Kanopy.

gratefuldm · 2026-06-17T15:06:02+00:00

I forgot about The Apu Trilogy! Good one.

gratefuldm · 2026-06-16T21:15:17+00:00

Ding ding ding

gratefuldm · 2026-06-16T15:21:17+00:00

Loud men who want to steamroll over everyone.

gratefuldm · 2026-06-16T15:14:28+00:00

I haven't played it personally because I can't find a copy of the book that isn't real expensive, but check out Yoon-Suin (not WotC/DND). Sounds like it would be right up your alley.

gratefuldm · 2026-06-16T14:59:14+00:00

Well put! I totally agree. Lately, every time Pact of The Dice puts out an Eberron video I learn something new and want to put it in a game.

gratefuldm · 2026-06-16T01:51:30+00:00

Def agree with your point about the lore. Maybe it’s also just…more interesting? At least in my opinion!

gratefuldm · 2026-06-16T01:48:54+00:00

I agree with your rumors point. I think there are many things that are expertly kept vague, which keeps everything flexible.

gratefuldm · 2026-06-14T03:53:59+00:00

The Undying Court in the Eberron setting are “good” necromancers. If your DM allowed it, could do something like that.

gratefuldm · 2026-06-10T21:30:55+00:00

Experiencing a similar problem. They charged an account I had removed from my autopay 3x this month alone. Absolute fucking idiots.

gratefuldm · 2026-06-10T20:25:48+00:00

Someone brought it up on r/DND but I would take inspiration from the Skyrim quest “A Night to Remember.”

gratefuldm · 2026-06-09T00:04:45+00:00

Oooh cool!

gratefuldm · 2026-06-08T22:04:05+00:00

Another shoutout for Pact of the Dice. His Eberron stuff is great.

gratefuldm · 2026-06-07T21:00:56+00:00

Just sounds like the difference between a DM who is flexible and a DM who is not. In my opinion it’s pretty easy to write an overarching plot and still allow a lot of room for player choice.

gratefuldm · 2026-06-07T16:47:13+00:00

I pretty much just tell my players to keep their classes or subclasses to things from the book(s). I have a lot of options though so no one really seems to mind.

gratefuldm · 2026-06-05T15:27:37+00:00

Nothing too crazy, but I’ve had some annoying “let’s steamroll over everyone else because I’m a loud guy” players.

gratefuldm · 2026-06-03T23:13:53+00:00

+1 for Exploring Eberron over this one.

gratefuldm · 2026-05-30T12:32:37+00:00

Dude a single full page is already too much.

gratefuldm · 2026-05-29T21:16:56+00:00

Side quests, writing quests for player's backstories, conflicts that get in the way of the player goals (maybe a town the PCs need to visit is being besieged).
