Description
The world of Eberron is a vast and dynamic setting defined by its blend of magic, industry, and ancient mystery. Unlike many worlds within the multiverse, it exists as a singular, self-contained planet within a unique planar arrangement, where twelve surrounding planes influence reality in cyclical patterns.
Eberron is a world shaped not by divine decree, but by mortal ambition, arcane innovation, and the remnants of forgotten empires.
Planet Details
Eberron is a fully realised world with diverse environments and continents:
- Vast kingdoms and city-states across Khorvaire
- Ancient elven and draconic civilisations in Aerenal and Argonnessen
- Harsh wilderness and ruins in Xen'drik
- Psionic societies in Sarlona
- Frozen and inhospitable regions such as Frostfell
