I have a player who just developed a Dragonmark. I was wondering what other ideas people have had for Dragonmarks, especially for different Aberrant powers.

Really, I'm looking for anything that is Dragonmarked that you have. Be it feats, items, Paragon Paths, whatever. While I only need a feat idea, I really want to know how awesome people have made these.

To be honest they haven't been out long enough to warrant homebrewing yet. Besides with the ECG not out yet I doubt many eberron campaigns have yet started anyway, so you'll have to wait a while before you get to see anything really.

That makes a lot of sense. I'm still hopeful, though.

Each dragonmark allows you to master and perform certain rituals. A feat, likely in paragon, might allow a dragonmarked character to perform a number of the rituals from their dragonmark per day for free, much in the way that bards can perform a certain number of bard rituals for free each day.

Just a thought. Dragonmarks are already pretty powerful as it is.

Regular Dragonmarks are plenty powerful as is. Aberrant dragonmarks are woefully underpowered, since you don't get any rituals, and their power enhancement is worse than for regular dragonmarks.

/sigh. So much stuff got worse when they decided that the only way to get extra powers (without replacing other powers) was to take a bloodline feat. The worst part about the nerfing of aberrant dragonmarks is that the entire "aberrant marks are on the rise again" story option has really been lost.

Unless one combines a chaos sorcerer and a aberrant mark (since chaos sorcerers draw upon the elemental chaos, which is at the heart of Khyber...)
