Eberron Campaign Bible

• Rail travel is fast but political—House Orien runs the show and has enemies.
• Rumors about four relics circulate, but they’re historical references, not current McGuffins.
• Signs of Warforged activism can be read many ways; paranoia serves the villains.

• Voice: measured, brittle calm; cracks under Ely-related pressure.
• Goal (surface): expose the lie about Ely; retrieve what the Crown actually represents (not just an object).
• Goal (shadow): make the world admit it used him. Truth, even if it breaks things.
• Tactics: indirect leverage—rumors, forged manifests, spiked rail schedules, patronized radicals.

1. Railside theft framed as “warforged terror”—actually Orien rival cartel.
2. Art opening in Passage featuring “Ely’s Crown” (forged), with hidden ledger.
3. Warehouse with “eggs” (arcane binds), timed to depart via Lightning Rail.
4. Ambush by actors wearing Broken Pact insignia to smear Pants.
5. Reveal: Ely’s message survives in performance, not metal.

• Obedience high: Mindra is smug, railroady, gifts clear hints.
• Curiosity high: Mindra becomes whimsical; extra doors appear.
• Mercy high: Mindra is warm; offers shortcuts that spare foes.
• Any score low: Mindra gets snide; add hazards or looping corridors.

Use a 10×10 structure: each layer has 3 choices (obey, explore, spare). Every tenth layer reveals a mirror of a prior outcome with an alternate tone from Mindra. The top row culminates in a door engraved with a cracked crown—leading to the Crown-myth reveal.

• On release, roll 1d100 and record the result R.
• At each Long Rest, roll 1d100. If the roll ≥ 100 − R, the old soul surfaces until the next Long Rest.
• Only the magic of the old PC is accessible when surfaced (use the host’s physical stats).
• On a natural 100 at release, the old soul can surface only on a 100 thereafter (rare).

Use surfacing to deliver memories that correct the relic myths. Make it costly but cathartic: advantage on checks to debunk propaganda during possession, exhaustion on the host after.

• Manifest Maze: PCs must reconcile three conflicting cargo copies before departure.
• Egg Crates: Arcane vessels mislabeled as “porcelain”—timer starts when the train moves.
• Platform Theater: Phiarlan troupe wearing Broken Pact motifs to bait Pants into showing.

Blister often “quotes” the party’s surface thoughts as punchlines, then helps reframe relic myths in real time during social scenes.

Included actor export aligns with 2024 rule updates (AC calc, Legendary/Resistances, Reflective Carapace, Thunderous Bellow, Swallow, etc.). Use as myth-bait in Covenant plots; footprints, reflected spells, or a shield-sized russet scale make great evidence drops.

1. Create a Campaign Bible Journal and paste this HTML in a Text (HTML) page.
2. Split major sections into subpages so you can share per‑scene redacted versions with players.
3. For the Mindra scoreboard, paste the snippet into a GM‑only page and run Evaluate in the sheet.
