Q: What advantages are afforded the development team by setting the game in Eberron, particularly Xen'drik?

A: The world of Eberron comes with a tremendous amount of built-in lore and history. Wizards of the Coast really did an amazing job here - even though the Eberron Campaign Setting was only released a few months ago, it already feels like a living, breathing world. It would have taken a lot of time for us to create a setting this detailed from scratch.

The fact that our game takes place on the continent of Xen'drik is icing on the cake. Xen'drik is only mentioned in passing in the Eberron Campaign Setting, but it's an important place, and Wizards has given us an enormous amount of flexibility in developing this corner of Eberron.

So we've really ended up with the best of both worlds - a virtual blank slate in a fully realized campaign setting. We couldn't be happier with the way this has turned out.
