I've got the CSB, and am wondering if anyone can tell me what Syberis is? Tons of mentions of a 'ring of fire' but for the life of me, I can't find where it describes it.

Thanks.

Read page 129. The first paragraphs on that page explain it well. Eberron is a world of 3 parts...

Syberys, the Dragon Above
Khyber, the Dragon Below
And Eberron, the Dragon Between.

I understood it to be a physical ring around the planet, like Saturn's rings. There's a description that goes into detail about how this ring is seen at the horizon during different seasons. All in all, it's just the physical manifestation of this symbolic dragon.

Excellent. I thought it was the equivalent of the sun or something.

Also, while I'm on the subject, the only way to get a Syberis Dragonmark is from the Syberis Heir PrC, correct?

Yes. Though it's "Siberys" in all cases.

My bad, I mixed up a Y and an I. Good thing it wasn't a bad enough typo to knock the whole question askew, eh? ;)
