Long ago, the Progenitor Dragons, Siberys, Eberron, and Khyber created thirteen planes of existence, each embodying a concept. Their final work would be the Material Plane, where all these concepts would coexist. But Khyber sought ultimate dominion over this new reality. She struck Siberys without warning and tore him apart. Eberron wrestled with Khyber and bound the traitor in her coils but could not defeat her. So Eberron became a living prison, a world that would forever contain Khyber’s evil. Shattered Siberys became the ring of golden dragonshards wrapped around the planet, said to be the source of magic. Eberron is the world, the source of all natural life. And Khyber is the Underdark and the source of aberrations and fiends, forever struggling against her bonds and yearning to destroy the world above. Today's Eberron is made up of six continents: Aerenal, Argonnessen, Everice, Khorvaire, Sarlona, and Xen'drik. This campaign will take place in Xen'drik, but characters may have originated in (almost) any of these places. I will describe Xen'drik and known locations within in some detail, but will only give general summaries for the other continents. Full descriptions can be found in "Eberron: Rising from the Last War", which you will have access to through the D&D Beyond campaign.
