I think there's going to be a lot of D&D pc game news in the next few days. All of the September mags celebrating 30 years of D&D are hitting stands soon, so we should hear official stuff online shortly on D&D Online, Neverwinter Nights 2 (just announced from Obsidian) and the D&D RTS, now known as "Dragonshard":

There's a few bits of Eberron info. One of them is curious:

"A second faction has been expelled from its ancestral homes and has come seeking a dark tool for revenge -- these are the Umbragen."

There's more info in the article, including "umbral energy". I think these are the "Shadow Elves".

Thanks for the scoop, Takasi!

I went ahead and copied this story to the Breland Ledger:

You'll notice that the Eberron Journal no longer features concept art or screenshots for Dragonshard, because I learned that they did not accurately represent the current game. I've heard rumors, though, that new Dragonshard images will be released sometime during the next month.
