Recently, I've been taking my favorite D&D realm Eberron and migrating it over to RealmWorks. I've been working on it for about a month now, and while I was doing more research about it, I discovered these forums. I was surprised to see that seemingly no one else was attempting this, so I'm now reinvigorated to finish it. I'd say I'm about at 30% completion. This is the map so far https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B9...DA4YTgtaFpBQVE . It's been interesting finding sources for the realm. This is my list so far
Websites https://kingmaker-in-eberron.obsidianportal.com/ http://eberronunlimited.wikidot.com/locations http://dungeonsmaster.com/eberron/ http://eberron.wikia.com/wiki/Eberron_Wiki https://sites.google.com/site/eberronpathfinder/Home Books An Adventurer's Guide To Eberron D&D 4.0 Eberron Campaign Guide Dragonmarked Dragons of Eberron Eberron Campaign Setting (D&D 3.5 I think) Eberron Explorers Handbook Eberron Five Nations Eberron Secrets of Sarlona Eberron Secrets of Xen'Drik Eberron Sharn: City of Towers Eberron The Forge of War Faiths of Eberron Kyber's Harvest Magic of Eberron Player's Guide to Eberron (D&D 3.5) Race's of Eberron Eberron Player's Handbook (D&D 4.0) I've been making this realm assuming all these sources are 'canon'. If anyone else finds any good sources not on this list, please feel free to bring it to my attention. Any advice as I'm going through this is also very welcome.

I've been wanting to take a look at the Eberron setting for a future campaign, still fairly new to the DM'ing side of things so wanted to start with the WotC 5e adventures before attempting any of the other realms. Thanks for rekindling the creative fire... and I'll be sure to keep you in mind if I do run into any sources

One note about this realm I'm building. I, of course, do plan on uploading it when I've gotten to a presentable state. It will be using a lot of HeroLabs Plugins with the Pathfinder mechanics. If you do use it for 5th edition, 90% of it transfers with no difficulty. I've done a few campaigns in Eberron before. I wasn't really proud of any of them though, partially because of being newish to DMing, but mostly because it's hard to keep track of everything that goes on in Eberron. There is quite a lot of kife-and-dagger elements that help keep the party on their toes, full-on warlike battles, and really technology-like magic. Once I discovered RealmWorks, I finally found a way to do this Realm justice. |

The knife-and-dagger, warlike battles, and technology-based magic is exactly why I want to play or run a game in that setting!! Once the holidays are over and things settle down I'm definitely going to read up on Eberron and get a feel for that world |

Strictly speaking it's WotK, though Keith Baker was the original author of the origional content. This project draws on more than just his content though. Hopefully copyright won't be an issue, since it's very much like distributing a book report on the Lord of the Rings. Since no money is made, it isn't in it's original format, and it will be clear that I hold no personal copyright/ownership to it.

Eberron is still one of WotC's properties though. They hold the copyright and the trademarks.
Repackaging material WotC, or a licensee, has published and making it available in a different format for free is circumventing their rights. You could get in a lot of trouble. At a bare minimum you can't quote anything. Everything has to be in your own words. my Realm Works videos https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZU...4DwXXkvmBXQ9Yw |
