06-14-07, 11:44 AM Does anyone have any ideas where Yuan-Ti might fit in the Eberron world? I am thinking Q'Barra might be a possibility, but I'm not quite sure if that would be the best fit.

Thanks

A variant of Yuan Ti, the Shulakassar (http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/ebds/20040920a), live in Krezent (Talenta Planes), and are the ones that venerate the Silver Flame.

You'll find information on the Yuan-Ti in Secrets of Sarlona and Secrets of Xen'drik; there is also a site (no actual location given) in the Silver Flame section of Faiths of Eberron, which describes a temple to the couatl taken over by yuan-ti and an anathema.

06-14-07, 01:01 PM To my knowledge, there are two conflicting versions of them by now - the standard bad guys mentioned in Faiths of Eberron and the Silver Flame believers from somewhere else though I can't recall what source it was...

06-14-07, 03:23 PM I wouldn't call them conflicting - just different cultures, just as not all human nations are identical. The Shulassakar were first discussed in the Dragonshard article Styltorian links to above.

06-15-07, 04:57 PM If I recall correctly, there are two different kinds of Yuan-ti, a larger group from Sarlona that fled to Xen'drik (or perhaps stayed in Sarlona), I would probably recommend the psionic variant in the Expanded Psionics Handbook for them, and a smaller group of Yuan-ti that are related to the Coutl (I think) and have wings.
The second group sounds a little far fetched, but I don't think I'd post it if it wasn't true, unless it's from one of my many stories based in Eberron. I know I made a stat-block for the winged version because there either wasn't one published (that I knew about) or I didn't like it. That was quite along time ago though.
