How many Warforged are there? That is, what is the population count? Around ten thousand.

How do you determine which monsters are in your world?
How do you determine which monsters are in your world? For example the Nilbog acts as Goblin God, which would interfere with your currently existing pantheon. Im just curious about the process you go through determining what is in or out. Because something is worshipped as a god doesn’t mean it “IS” one by the scale of the original pantheon. There are many entities that are powerful but not quite gods, though some treat them like it.

Are the deities all aware of each other? Do the FR gods know the Eberron gods exist?
The PHB indicates that some gods are worshipped on multiple worlds within the D&D multiverse, but also says every world has its own pantheon (p.293). Simple question: are the deities all aware of each other? Do the FR gods know the Eberron gods exist? Some do, but gods are typically too embroiled in their own obsessions to pay much mind to things beyond their immediate concern.

Would a dragon disguised as a member of House Lyrandar be able to pilot an Airship?
I have an #Eberron question: would a dragon disguised as a member of House Lyrandar be able to pilot an Airship? And how might that look different than a true holder of the Mark of Storms? It's possible to control an airship without the Mark of Storm, its just an ongoing battle of wills with the elemental.A dragon has a strong will, and if the course is straightforward ("Go west 300 miles") it's not that hard or obvious.

Hah! You beat me to it.

If it suits the story, absolutely.
If you’re asking technically, I’d say— it’s a dragon, who taught the giants magic, and presumably had a connection with the Prophecy and is a direct conduit of magic. So, if yes, it probably looks exactly how the dragon wants. The same OR not.

You had the better answer, though. :-p Any creature can try to pilot an airship (Per Explorer's Guide) but a dragon or Lord of Dust could easily have a tool that makes it appear to function normally for them. Again, what suits the needs of the story?
— Keith Baker (@HellcowKeith) August 11, 2018
If the course requires constant adjustment, there would likely be times that the elemental would resist, and you'd have a bumpy or unsafe ride. So don't try to pilot the ship through Sharn.
— Keith Baker (@HellcowKeith) August 11, 2018
And I’d even add to that, if the dragon spent enough time among Lyrandar, and had practiced, even another with the Mark of Storms might not notice any difference even piloting through Sharn.

Certainly, the critical question is "What's best for the story?" Setting aside willpower, dragons have access to epic level magic and could presumably craft an item or ritual that would allow such control. Ditto for one of the Lords of Dust.

Maybe the gods look like Flumphs though? 😉

“Behold, the Palace of the Chalice”
1)
“Behold,” the hired bard guide declaimed grandly, waving one arm in a great roundhouse flourish at the frowning castle behind him, “the Palace of the Chalice.”
“Doesn’t look very palatial to me,” said the thief, peering…#epic fantasy— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) June 23, 2018
2)
…up at the grim battlements.
“Chalices have different standards than we do,” the bard sighed. “To a metal cup, even an enchanted, self-aware one, having an entire castle to yourself is…luxury.”#epic fantasy— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) June 23, 2018
3)
“The deaths of all intruders thrown in, extra, I suppose,” the thief replied, still looking up.
“You hold a rather bleak outlook on life, friend,” the bard replied, to the suddenly-fleeing thief.#epic fantasy— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) June 23, 2018
4)
An instant before a large section of wall fell, flattening him.
The thief watched it ratchet back up into place with a rattle of mighty chains. A ghostly voice boomed from the castle: “I HATE bards.”#epic fantasy— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) June 23, 2018
5)
“Ah, so we’re on the same side,” the thief called. “I’m here to try to find the vault of the sleeping princess; any chance of that?”
“Make me an offer,” the castle boomed.
The thief beamed. “We’re going to get along fine.”#epic fantasy— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) June 23, 2018
