Siberys 03-03-05, 12:31 PM	Feel Free to suggest new Acronyms/Terms.
Beleriphon 03-03-05, 10:34 PM	I think Edy's entry needs to be changed to "Prodigious" message board poster. :D
Demon in Shades of Gray 03-04-05, 01:24 AM	I appreciate this. I've been wondering what all the abbreviations mean. I had some theories, but it's nice to get confirmation. Thanks :D Now, help me with this one... BBEG what is? :(
KimHal 03-04-05, 04:57 AM	It's Keith, not Kieth... :teach:
magicmarker13 03-04-05, 07:39 AM	shucks, that is cute, edymnion is part of semiofficial eberron terminology... btw (which means by the way), dude... BBEG means big bad evil guy
Purple Yin 03-04-05, 08:15 AM	or 'big bad end guy' if you run an evil campagn, and your enemy is a good guy.
James Silverleaf 03-04-05, 08:38 AM	thx ( short for thanks) :D .. nice with a thread like this... i have been wondering about many of these things...
Griff_Goodbeard 03-04-05, 09:02 AM	Not really Eberron related, but when I was new here I took me forver to find these out IIRC= If I Remember Correctly OTOH= On The Other Hand more comming :D
Siberys 03-04-05, 12:38 PM	Oh, yeah, a-fixin keith (HOW COULD I SPELL HIS NAME WRONG? :weep: ) A lot of the things like "BBEG", "OTOH", and "IIRC" are on a terms thread on the D&D General boards. That's why I didn't include them.
Isran_Imrador 03-05-05, 10:38 AM	K.C = Korranbarg Chronicle K.L = Korranberg Library
Siberys 03-05-05, 03:05 PM	Thanks, Isran. Addin' that. Wouldn't it be great if this were stickied? ;) ;) ;)
Siberys 03-05-05, 03:33 PM	Added Websites
DwarvinJedi 03-06-05, 12:01 AM	Any General terms can be found here (http://boards1.wizards.com/showthread.php?t=46916)
Siberys 06-07-05, 06:24 PM	:bump: tee-hee!
Ponderosa 06-07-05, 09:10 PM	I would add the phrase "wide-magic" to the glossary. It's not an acronym, but a term coined by Edymnion to describe the low-level, wide-spread magic in Eberron.
Elderich 06-09-05, 01:05 AM	homoc, and ID
PsionicMonk 06-09-05, 06:01 AM	Great, post, i think this needs a sticky (sticky = always at/near the top of the forums :D ) :bump:
Siberys 06-09-05, 06:28 AM	I would add the phrase "wide-magic" to the glossary. It's not an acronym, but a term coined by Edymnion to describe the low-level, wide-spread magic in Eberron. Consider it done homoc, and ID Would you please Elaborate? I'm still getting a hang of the non-Eberron Acronyms (If these are), and I need to know what they are if they're Eberron. Many thanks, psionicmonk, I've been lobbying for a sticky myself...
Isran_Imrador 06-09-05, 08:49 AM	Marked for Death = MfD The Crimson Talisman = (t)CT (scan ;) ) Five Nation could be = 5N
Elderich 06-09-05, 11:28 AM	There are, apparently, many short forms for Homonculus, Homoc is just one. And ID is an Iron Defender, one of the new Homonculus in ECS. Sorry, i should have put this in the first post.
Saviente 06-09-05, 02:54 PM	UMD = use magic device skill when talking about Artificers. Not on the general list either which probably should...It took me awhile, as a noob ;) to figure that one out :) Edit: Heres another one that I didn't see on the general list also that probably should PHB and XHB = expanded psionics handbook
