Given the Noir and espionage elements in Eberron, would you say that there is an equivalent to what Berlin was during the Cold War -dubbed city of spies, where different factions met and intrigued?Throneport perhaps?

— Nicolás Carrillo-S. (@NicolasCS) November 24, 2017

Throneport, certainly. Though Stormreach and Sharn certainly have their fair share of intrigues.

it appears that in Eberron, Goblin is the name for goblins, hobgoblins and bugbears? In 5E would those three be a subraces of goblin rather than listed separately?This is a problem with translation. In their tongue, they call the united races the Dar, and goblins are the golin'dar.

— Keith Baker (@HellcowKeith) October 30, 2017

Mechanically I wouldn't represent them with as a single race with three subraces. Goblin, Bugbear & Hobgoblin are too different for that…

— Keith Baker (@HellcowKeith) October 30, 2017

… And under the 5E system it's even possible that one of these races would have its own "subraces."

— Keith Baker (@HellcowKeith) October 30, 2017

For the most part I use 5E's subraces as a reflection of personal aptitude and development as opposed to genetics.

— Keith Baker (@HellcowKeith) October 30, 2017

Great, thank you. That is exactly what I needed. If someone says, “I killed 3 goblins”, they mean goblins, not bugbears. Much like elf is elf and drow is drow? When using Common, I use Goblin to mean the unified species and goblin (lower case) for the race. But more accurate to use Dar/golin'dar.

Dear Keith, given the Traveler’s Curse, do you think there may be uncharted islands in Xen’drik not shown in Eberron maps? Absolutely.

Finally, is there any connection between Siberys and the Silver Flame? The latter seems too embedded in the material plane The Silver Flame IS embedded in the material plane. It was created by the sacrifice of the couatl, who are native celestials.

— Keith Baker (@HellcowKeith) October 19, 2017

Mythologically the couatl are said to have been created by Siberys so there's a sort of connection there; it's ultimately energy of Siberys.

how would you write the traditional elemental planes into Eberron? (Fire is easy, others not so much)For my PotA Eberron game I’m thinking small pockets within Kythri where the warring archomentals assert their influence

— Elad Gilo (@EladGilo) October 9, 2017

Not having read PotA, I'd definitely be inclined to make them demiplanes.

— Keith Baker (@HellcowKeith) October 9, 2017

Kythri is certainly a valid choice, but if you're specifically dealing with "Elemental Evil" I'd make them demiplanes in Khyber.

— Keith Baker (@HellcowKeith) October 9, 2017

In Eberron is it feasible in the world to have a one or two man airship or earth sled such as a “sky bike” or “earth bike”? It's certainly FEASIBLE – the Sulatar drow of Xen'drik use 2-person flying fire-sleds.

— Keith Baker (@HellcowKeith) September 19, 2017

The catch is that in Eberron magic is a science. At the current stage of development it takes a dragonmarks to control elemental vehicles.

— Keith Baker (@HellcowKeith) September 19, 2017

If you choose to advance elemental science to a point where you don't need a dragonmark you could, but that would impact Orien & Lyrandar.

I believe the 3.5 sourcebooks are available on the DM's Guild, and both the City of Stormreach and Secrets of Xen'drik books are great.
