I'm using the Player's Guide to Eberron to create a document of common knowledge (items of knowledge where the Knowledge check DC is 10 or less) for my players. I'm using the "What Do You Know?" sidebars. Basically, this is just a handout, hopefully helping my players immerse themselves more fully in Eberron. (My intent is to allow players to add to it in areas in which they have actual ranks in applicable Knowledge skills.)

If anybody would like a copy of the document, please email me. Because I'm using a fair amount of text from the book, please include a photo of either you and the book, or of the book with a d20 (set to 20) on top. Fair Use probably applies, but I don't want to take any chances.

The document with likely be 12-14 pages long, in Word format. I'm about 50 percent done.

This sounds great, I've thought about doing something similar, but never had the time. I'll send you a picture sometime this weekend. Thanks.

Nice. Back when I was a teen and had time to prep for games I used to kick off a new campaign by giving each player two sheets of common knowledge stuff - one customised by race, the other by class. The benefit of customising it like that was that different races or classes could have different - sometimes contradictory - views on things.

Very cool. Can I take a picture of myself with a book from the shelf at the game store? How about with a copy from the library? [)]

man, my library only has the old second addition books, well they
did a while back. Your library is MUCH cooler if you've got
ebberon there.

The doc is complete. Again, if anyone would like it, please email me.

(No pic necessary, but do let me know in the email that you own Player's Guide to Eberron.)
