Content

Greetings, Patrons!

I've just posted the House Orien article. It's long—over ten thousand words—and as a result it's taken a long time for me to finish it and get it posted. My plan is to post a similar article for each house. However, I want to get some feedback from you to make sure what I'm writing is useful to you.

The first question is simple: Do you want to see more of these articles? Do you want an article for each house (and Tarkanan)?

The second is whether you like getting the article like this—one giant article—or if you'd rather have it broken down into smaller articles, so there's one article on families, one article on guilds, etc.

The final piece is to let me know if there's any particular element of the article that you didn't enjoy, which I should leave out of future articles.

Don't forget: tomorrow night at 6 PM Pacific I'll be holding a live Q&A on Dragonmarks and Dragonmarked Houses on the Discord!

Definitely nicer to have all in one article, for the same reason why it's nice when you pull from these articles for your DMSguild books, it organizes them nicely into an easily found reference tool.

My husband has been looking forward to this article for weeks now. Looking forward to seeing more like this, in this format!

What a treasure!!! Need more in this format!

I like all elements of the articles and I prefer having them as one huge info dump I can read at a time instead of smaller articles I'd have to hunt for to reference in the future!

Personally, I’m looking forward to the Ghallanda and Vadalis articles where you see how evil and slimey the hospital and veterinarian Houses CAN become

I've got nuance on my answer, so here's some feedback! I dig all of this, but the Shape of the House, Families, and Histories are all things I've wanted to see... well since 2004. I didn't vote for Miscellany because I found the teleportation circle discussion didn't grab me likely because I don't use 5e to run Eberron. But I absolutely loved the Unicorn information and would absolutely love to see more about how the others Houses heraldic animals connect to them. I'm also not opposed to more miscellany in the other articles at all... its just my reactions to what was in this one. Absolutely loved this an excited to see more!
