Hi there! Just came up with an idea for my first Eberron Campaign. Would be great if someone could give me feedback on this... I start out (like almost anyone else ;) with THE FORGOTTEN FORGE adventure from the ECS. However, because my players heard a lot about it, I decided, that Lady Eladryn d'Cannith is actually a Changeling who's working for the Emerald Claw. She took the opportunity to cheat the PCs because they happened to be on the bridge when Bonal Geldem has been attacked.The PCs (one is from house Orien) will play out the adventure as given, and after they have delivered the schema to the false Lady Eladryn and are about to feel good about it, they got a call from the patriarch of their house, Kwanti d'Oien who happens to recide in Sharn. When they come to him, a beautiful Lady is sitting next to him who is introduced by the patriarch as Lady Eladryn d'Cannith from Aundair. ;) He greets them and says that he heard, that they have been involved in the dead of Bonal Geldem, and because Lady d'Cannith is here in Sharn to receive a journal from him, they just wanted to hear now, what exactly happened on the bridge during the night of Geldems death. (I figured that those two houses might have a good relationship, becasue Cannith made the conductor stones for the Lighnting Rail). Well, after the pcs have revealed what happened, Kwanti d'Orien is almost raging, and he feels very bad about it in front of his honored guest. When he is about to punish the pcs (maybe he thinks that the Lady will then be pleased) Lady Eladryn d'Cannith seizes up the situation and decides that those pcs might just be the agents she needs to get the lost schemas for her true master, and interrupts the loud speach of Kwanti. She wants to have the pcs to research an excavation site below Sharn... (planting the seed for THE QUEEN WITH BURNING EYES from Dungeon#113). Thereafter I plan to play SHADOWS OF THE LAST WAR. What will come thereafter I still don't know exactly, but after the pcs recover one of the schemas during THE QUEEN adventure, they still have three more to find... One other thing... Lady d'Cannith is secretly working for Merrix d'Cannith. At the end of GRASP OF THE EMERALD CLAW it is sayed, that Merrix would assemble the pieces of the creation-pattern once again. I decided that his motivation is to build a really powerful army of Warforged, so that when the doory to Xoriat are opened again and the daelkyr roam the land for a second time, he will be save! Why he wants to open the gates? Well, he's mad and the griev about loosing his homeland works hard on him. If he has no homeland anymore, all the others should as well have no homeland... Ok, I have to work a bit on this, but after all the adventures around the creation pattern, there will be still work for the pcs, to keep Merrix d'Cannith from fullfilling his plan...
