Whats different about Eberron?
Plenty. Your character might belong to a new basic class like the Artificer (a magic-user who specializes in creating items), a member of a new race like the Shifters and Warforged, or a new prestige class like the Inquisitive (an urban detective). Characters can activate class abilities or improve their odds with action points. Rather than confining characters to one dungeon over the course of an adventure, Eberron encourages characters to ride an airship or lightning train across Khorvaire and jump from one dynamic setting to the next. Cultures and races have added depth, as your enemies are defined by more complex motives than a racially-determined alignment. It’s all presented with the edgy-but-classic look that defined the visual style of D&D 3rd Edition (and uses some of the same artists who helped make Magic: the Gathering such a success).
