09-28-07, 11:00 AM I am currently playing a Seren tribesmen and have incorporated much of the eberron sources for rp. I have heard people make comparisons to the Dayak tribes of Borneo. I can't make this connection because I have never seen good books or pictures of them. Does anyone have any books or authors on the tribe that are qualitative?

Thanks.

That's not a frost giant that's Daros Winterhammer, warrior chief of the White Wardens, whom quite obviously venerate a white. From the adventure Eyes of the Lich Queen. He's a darn nice fella once you get to know him and help him cut a swash of bloody vengance through his enemies.

Other than that in Magic of Eberron you learn more about the draconic rituals undertaken by the Seren at those massive Dragon totems, which are highly flavorful and more or less bind perminant magic items to your body. Nice stuff.

In the Explorers Handbook you can learn a little more about them, the Seren Villiage of Mesk is statted up as an adventure site.

Wherein you get a pretty good picture of a coastal Seren town. They'll outright kill any outsiders who don't come with someone in their party bearing a Dragonmark, you get some local intruige between the chief and his son, you learn about the Shroud of Scales. Also some nice flavor about Seren fashion, facial piercings with rings that look like a dragon eating its own tail... Oh and a map of the villiage.

The only novel where I remember them coming into it, mind you I haven't read the Hardcover Stormdragon yet. Is in the Marked For Death trilogy, which opinion on is split 'round these parts. Anyway in the third novel the heroes head of Argonessen and enter through a Seren town which is more or less Mesk exactly. Don't spend a lot of time there but the Shroud of Scales is a minor character.
