| #2m4kitsuAug 30, 2010 2:11:34 | The 3.5 edition Faiths of Eberron was more-or-less the definitive guide on religion in the world. It covered the Host and Six quite extensively, but also contained info on the Silver Flame, Path of Light and various "cults" (Khyber, Blood of Vol, Becoming God, etc.). Even though the crunch is out of date, it's well worth the purchase price just for the information it contains. A lot of gaming stores and secondhand bookshops (at least around here) still have copies. You might have to ask, since not all of them are on the shelves. In fact, all of the 3.5 Eberron sourcebooks are still perfectly valid in terms of the fluff they contain. City of Towers, Faiths of Eberron, Secrets of Sarlona, Five Nations, Races of Eberron and Dragonmarked, are particularly good in this regard. In addition, there's a "Grand History of Eberron" document running around the forums somewhere (sorry, don't have a link handy). It's a fan-made compilation that might also include some useful information for you -and it's free! |

EPG gives exactly the sought of information a player and their characters would have access to. If you're looking for more concise info, go pick up the ECS or start leafing through the 3.5e Eberron books. Quite a good source of information for you to chew through ;) . |

I'm pretty sure that a Cleric of the Sovereign Host would have a little bit more knowledge about the deities that he worships than just their spheres and maybe a little bit of background on them. The EPG is embarassingly bad about providing the information a player needs to play a Divine character in Eberron. |
