Okay, I've seen this word all over the boards. I know it comes from "Eye of the Lich Queen", but I looked in the adventure and coudln't really find it in the table of contents, nor the index.

What are these things?

Dragonspawn were presented in the MMIII as the corrupted spawn of Tiamat. I don't know much about them other than that their Eberron conversion in the MMIII was terrrible.

From what I've read else where on the boards Keith has made a much better adaptation of the Dragonspawn in the Dragons of Eberron supplement. Course that's several months away :(

I've been planning to use them as corruptions. For any resurrgent demon, what better warrior to send than a corrupted version of the "great foe" from Demon-Dragon wars.

Now was far was details, there's quite a many different versions. There's humanoid dragonspawn like the Redspawn Arcaniss, or the Greenspawn Sneak, there's a blackspawn that's like a half demon spider thing, a charging electric bluespawn dog thing, etc etc.

Thanks!

You know, I imagine that you could pull off the same trick with Dragontouched (or whatever they are from Races of the Dragon).

They're in Monster Manual IV, for the record, not Monster Manual III.

:embarrass That's what I get for posting away from my books. Does anyone know where the thread is that said Kieth was doing dragonspawn conversions?

Could someone please just tell what are they explained as in Eyes of the lich queen? I won't buy dragons of Eberron as I'll be in appartement then so D&D books won't be on top of the "needed" list and even if I could afford them, I won't wait 6 months and pay 50$ to know: How did they adapt the dragonspawns to Eberron?
Please just tell me. I need that info.

Barnes and Noble or Books a Million could tell you :) The book isn't seal wrapped so you can flip through it. As far as I've read they didn't give a whole lot details on how they has a whole (meaning each type of spawn) were adapted....only certain individuals,....which seems adventure specific.
