Wayfinder's Guide To Eberron Cover

Eberron Comes to 5e – Wayfinder’s Guide to Eberron

Eberron has a setting guide on DM’s Guild, Wayfinder’s Guide to Eberron [Affiliate Link], so Eberron content is available for 5e for others to use in their DMs Guild offerings.

I don’t know a lot about Eberron, other than it is Satine Phoenix’s favorite. Her first convention game was a scenario set in Eberron, and I was one of the players.  From that I experience, I learned that Eberron is a magic and technology are integrated. It is not surprising that many of the players from Maze Arcans have playtest credits.

Very cool that Ruty Rutenberg is listed in the credits as designer.

This $19.99 PDF went platinum on DMs Guild just a few hours after being announced.

I just downloaded it. So do they need a mithril category? I’m not big into settings, but I want to see what all the fuss is about. This was not expected, other than I knew Ruty was working on something big. I won’t get a review of this, as I have a ton of other things on my plate, and need to get through them.

The PDF is 176 pages with clickable links in the table of contents. There is no index. It does use some material from Mordenkainen’s Tome of Foes, according to a note on the title page. There is a history of Eberron, places, new races, new magic, and recommended reading with a list of sourcebooks and novels set in Eberron.

Someone asked Ruty on Twitter if it will be available as POD and he said that is the plan.

D&D Beyond did an interview with Keith Baker, the creator of Eberron, and he explained a bit about it. See it here.

There are a ton of others tweeting, blogging, and vlogging about this and the announcement of a new setting book slated for November from a Magic: The Gathering setting: Ravnica. The book is Guildmaster’s Guide to Ravnica.

Ruty also just tweeted that there is more to come.

Congratulations Ruty! This is awesome!
