Revised Eberron Conversion
« on: June 13, 2009, 10:20:44 AM »
Due to the expanded setting that I've acquired (Secrets of Sarlona, the Dragonmarked Houses) I'll be revising the Eberron adaptation to RMSS/RMFRP a LOT!  Since it's just rules and not fluff; I can put it up here.

Eberron Adaptation: Revised
By Elton Robb
Official Website at WotC, no fluff will be represented in this Adaptation.

Eberron is a campaign setting that won the setting search by Wizards of the Coast.  It's main designer is Rich Baker, a friend of mine who resides in Colorado.  This Adaptation is unofficial and is done without the knowledge of Rich Baker himself.  We are only converting the game rules so that the setting is usable "out of the box" with Rolemaster.

Unlike Forgotten Realms, or Greyhawk, Eberron isn't a "vanilla campaign setting" which can be used right out of the box with Rolemaster.  There are certain conversions that need to take place that will take everything into account.  Items such as Dragonmarks, Artificers, the Lightning Rail, and the four new races are game items that are beyond Rolemaster at present.  So, on with the conversion!

PART I: RACES

The Dragonmarked Races

The normal PHB races are all known as the Dragonmarked Races because they all have families that carry a Dragonmark. The races of Eberron that carry a dragonmark include:
* Humans
* Elves
* Dwarves
* Gnomes
* Halflings
* Half-elves
* Half-orcs

Humans

Humans come in three flavors:

* High Men --> which are descended from the original families that came from Sarlona in the Distant past and makes up the aristocratic families the old Kingdom of Galifar.

* Common Men --> humans form the backbone of the population of the old Kingdom.

* Mixed Men --> Men that contain both High and common blood.

The following cultures exist:
** Urban Men (All 5 Nations)
** Rural Men (All Nations)
** Woodmen (in the Eldeen Reaches)
** Mariners (Located along the Coast: especially the Lhazaar Principalities, Q'Barra, Sharn, and the Shadow Marches)
** Hill Men (The Demon Wastes and Darguun)
** Nomads (The Demon Wastes, the Mournland, and Valenar)

The Following Dragonmarked Houses are human:
House Cannith, House Deneith (Urban Men, High Men)
House Orien (Nomads and Rural Men)
House Vadalis (Wood Men)

Elves

There are three Cultures of Elves: the Khoravar, the Valenar, and the Arenal.  There are two Dragonmarked houses, each carrying the Mark of Shadow.  A third, House Vol, carried the Mark of Death but was wiped out long ago in a war between dragons and elves.

THE KHORAVAR ELVES

The Elves of Khorvaire, called the Khoravar, have no kingdom of their own and are spread about the 5 nations. They use the High Elf race template in character creation.

THE ELVES OF ARENAL
The Elves of Arenal use the Grey Elf template in character creation.

THE VALANAR ELVES

Are warlike, and have their own template.

Stat bonuses -> Ag +3, Co +0, Me +2, Re +0, SD +5, EM -2, In +0, PR +4, QU +4, St +0

Due to the Arabian and Persian influence on the Valanar Elves, they have the Desert Culture as explained in Races and Cultures for RMFRP.  But they live on the plains of Cyre, also known as Valanar.  Refer to Races and Cultures page 117 for Adolescent Rank information.

 I like what you have done but I also think that changeling's should also have acting as a everyman or occ skill. But that is just me and I might be biased as I like the idea of changeling race.

Well, I "can't" change it until the revision is done. So chime in with your suggestions. :)

 I think that is the only one that I have seen. The toughest IMO will be the shifters as they have lots of stuff to modify and take into account.

I did it before.  It's not hard as far as shifters go.  One background option actually goes to choosing a trait.  The problem is that they are wrapped up so much into D&D.  Since Rolemaster doesn't allow you to accumulate traits, some Shifterness will be lost (like the ability to develop a second trait).

 IMO just give them trait points at specific levels so they can buy traits.

Shifters

a picture of a Shifter can be found here.

Shifters are a race that is the result of werebeasts mating with humans.  They cannot fully change form, however they can take on animalistic features in an ability they call shifting.

Shifters have their own race template, as shown below:

Ag +2, Co +0, Me +0, Re -2, SD -2, EM +2, In +0, Pr +0, Qu +0, St +0

RR Modifiers: Channeling +0, Essence +0, Mentalism +0, Disease +10, Poison +0

Body Development: 0 * 7 * 5 * 3 * 1
Arcane Development: 0 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2
Channeling Development: 0 * 6 * 5 * 4 * 3
Essence Development: 0 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2
Mentalism Development: 0 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2

Soul Departure: 10
Race Type: 2
Recovery: x1
Languages: 2
Background Options: 5

Special Abilities:
* Shifting: use as written, except Shifting lasts for a number of rounds equal to 3 + the Shifter's Co modifier.  A shifter can take a talent to improve this ability.

* Low Light Vision: Shifters can see on a star-lit or moonlit night as if it were full daylight. In conditions darker than that, they need a light source to see, and their vision extends to 50' feet (perfect vision) and 100' (they can see reasonably well). In absolute darkness, however, they can see no better than Men.

* Special Skills -> Everyman Acrobatics, Climbing, Jumping Restricted None.
* Preferred Professions: Ranger, Animist, Druid (see below), and Seer usually attract Shifters.  Although there has been Shifter fighters, barbarians, warrior monks, mages, mentalists, and clerics.

SHIFTER TRAITS

Each shifter has one of the following special traits, which is selected when a character is created and cannot be changed.  Traits marked with an Asterisk (*) are found in Races of Eberron, Traits marked with a Star (✰) are found in Secrets of Sarlona.

Beasthide: While shifting, a Beasthide Shifter gains a heavy hide (AT 4) and gains a +5 Co bonus.

Cliffwalk: While shifting, a Cliffwalk shifter gains a +5 bonus to Ag, and has a +20 bonus to climb moving maneuvers.

Dreamsight:*  The Dreamsight trait is the rarest of all Shifter traits, and many dreamsight shifters may become druids.  When shifting, a Dreamsight shifter gains a +3 bonus to Empathy and Intuition and gains the ability to communicate with animals as if under the influence of the Animal Tongues spell.

Gorebrute:* While Shifting, a gorebrute shifter gains a +2 bonus to Strength and grows horns that can be used as a natural weapon during a charge attack (Use the Horn attack table, using a maximum of a small attack).  [Special Note: Somebody has to have developed a martial art system around this attack!  See martial arts section, below.]

Longstride: While shifting, a longstride shifter gains a +3 bonus to Quickness, and a +20 bonus to his Athletic * Endurance skill category.

Longtooth: While shifting, the Longtooth shifter grows fangs that can be used as a natural weapon.  The bite is considered a Tiny attack. [No martial arts around this bite attack, but the move is incorporated in other Shifter Martial Arts).

Razorclaw: While shifting, the razorclaw shifter gains a +3 bonus to Strength and grows claws that can be used as natural weapons.  A Razorclaw shifter can use the claw attack table making a maximum of small attacks.

Swiftwing:*  While Shifting, a swiftwing shifter temporarily gains a +2 bonus to Quickness.  Also, his arms grow bat-like wings, which grant him a fly speed of 20 ft.  A swiftwing Shifter also treats flying/gliding as a occupational skill.  A swiftwing shifter cannot glide or fly while carrying a medium load, or while wearing armor better than a leather jerkin (AT 6).

Truedrive:* While shifting, a truedrive shifter gains a +5 bonus to Co, and a +25 bonus to Swimming. In addition, the truedive shifter can hold his breath for a number of rounds equal to his constitution score before he risks drowning.  A truedive shifter gains this benefit even when he isn't shifting.

Wildhunt Shifter: While shifting, a wildhunt shifter temporarily gains a +5 bonus to his SD and the ability to track things by scent. This gives the shifter a +25 bonus to his tracking skill while shifting. When not shifting, a wildhunt shifter gains a +10 bonus on his Survival skill due to the lingering effects of his scent ability.  Otherwise use as written.

Winterhide:✰ While shifting, a Winterhide shifter gains a +3 bonus to Co, and AT 3, and a +10 to survival skills while in the cold.  In addition, a Winterhide shifter gains a +10 RR bonus against the environmental effects of extreme cold.  This is available only to Sarlonan shifters.

-----------------

WARFORGED
A picture of a female warforged can be found here.

The Warforged are living machines built for war.  However, after the Last War, many warforged were freed by the various nations of Khorvaire.

RACE INFORMATION:
Stats: Ag +0, Co +3, Me +0, Re +0, SD +0, EM +0, In -2, Pr -2, Qu +0, St +0

RR Modifiers: Channeling +0, Essence +0, Mentalism +0, Disease +100, Poison +100

Soul Departure: 2
Race Type: 5
Recovery: x0
Languages: 2
Background Options: 4

* Composite Plating: A Warforged gains AT 16.  The plating can be upgraded to Mithral (Mithril) and Adamantine (Eog) through the selection of talents.

* Light Fortification: When a critical strike is scored, reduce its severity by 1 ( C becomes B, B becomes A, and A becomes -50 hits).

* A warforged has a natural weapon comparable to a Bash attack, the highest severity is small.

* Preferred professions: Fighters.  Although a significant amount of Warforged are attracted to the paladin, barbarian, and artificer classes.

More Religions!!!

THE BLOOD OF VOL

The Blood of Vol is a religion dedicated to living beyond the grave.  The worshippers of the Blood of Vol believe that they can extend life eventually. Unsurprising that the Blood of Vol contains a number of Necromancers.  Associated Professions: Necromancer (see Channeling Companion), Knight of the Emerald Claw (Paladin or Fighter with the Secret Society Member or Zealot training packages).


THE PATH OF LIGHT
The Path of the Light is the Kalashtar religion.  It's adherents are trying to pass the Age of Dal Quor; from an Age of Nightmare and Darkness to an Age of Day and Dream.  Most of the officiating priests are Mentalists, Seers, or Mystics.  However, some priests do channel.

Template: Mentalism/Channeling Hybrid
Prime Stats: As Astrologer
Possible Base Lists: Chants, Divine Aura, Holy Discipline, Holy Trances, Mentalist and Seer spell lists
Special Skills: Meditation (O), Cleansing Trance (E), Healing Trance (E), Sleep Trance (E)

THE UNDYING COURT
The Undying Court is also served by Necromancers.  But unlike the Blood of Vol, the Undying Court attracts good Paladins and Crusaders.  See the Channeling Companion for the Necromancer and Crusader templates.

THE PATH OF INSPIRATION

The Quori know that Religion is the opiate of the people.  So they invented a "fake" religion to handle the people of Riedra's spiritual needs. This is the Path of Inspiration, a religion that revolves around Life and reincarnation.

Template: Mentalism/Channeling Hybrid

Hi,

Can I (humbly) suggest that all this great conversion material will be available in PDF form to download?

Just an idea ;D

Ido

I think the only place I can safely store a PDF for download is either the Guild Companion or Keith Baker's website.

ARTES DE MARS!
(Yeah Baby!!)

For as long as there was War in Khorvaire, there will be always new techniques for killing people developed.  This is quite unavoidable, since someone somewhere will develop an Art of Mars.  The Arts of Mars in Khorvaire are varied, but they are either Unarmed or Armed.  The Martial Arts of Khorvaire include: Karrnathi Swordsmanship, Rekkenmark Fencing, Karrnathi Longbowmanship, Cyrian Swordsmanship, Ragewild Fighting (Shifter Unarmed Martial Arts), Dancing with Shadows (Kalashtar Unarmed art), Battleshifter Art (Shifter martial art), Karrnathi Pankration (Karrnathi Unarmed Martial Art), Aundairian Battle Magic (Aundairian Martial Art), Thoughtshifting (Kalashtar Martial Art for Soulknives), Brellish Fencing (Brelander Weapon Art), Thranish Swordsmanship (Thrane Martial Art), Valanar Swordsmanship, Valanar Longbowmanship, Talenti Boomerang Throwing (Halfling Weapon Art).

THE KAARNATHI MARTIAL ARTS

KARRNATHI PANKRATION
Basic Martial Arts Style [25 Style Points]
Description --- Originally developed in Sarlona, and further refined when the humans came to Khorvaire; Karrnathi Pankration is a no holds barred, dynamic martial art that is similar to certain aspects of Kung-fu and Grecco-Roman Wrestling.  It's very detailed, and is often taught to new Karrnathi swordsmen as part of their training in the Arts of War.  It's no holds barred: so you can do anything except gouge one's eyes out.

Recommended Skills -- Martial Arts Striking, Martial Arts Sweeping, Boxing, Wrestling, Adrenal Defense

Martial Arts Abilities [Core] --- Lesser Adrenal Defense [10 points], Martial Arts Striking -- Rank 2, Martial Arts Sweeps -- Rank 2, Martial Arts Locking Holds -- Rank 3 [10 points]; +1 to initiative rolls [5 points]


KARRNATHI SWORDSMANSHIP
Advanced Weapon Style [50 style points]
Description --- Human Swordsmanship was first developed in Sarlona thousands of years ago.  From the time that it came to the Lhaazar Principalities and into Karrnathi it was developed into a dynamic, fluid, energetic art where a Karrn depended on his sword to protect him and his family from invaders.  When Karrnathi was finally established, the art lived and thrived and took on a life of it's own during the War of the Mark.  When the Kingdom of Galifar was established, Karrnathi Swordsmanship became the ancestor of all modern human Khorvairese weapon arts.

Recommended Skills --- War Mattock, Halberd, Broadsword, Dagger, Longsword, Short Sword, Falchion, Bastard Sword, Two-Handed Sword, Great Sword, Wrestling, Boxing, Adrenal Defense, Feinting, Disarm Foe [1h weapons and 2h weapons]

Weapon Style Abilities [Core] --- All bladed weapons [10 points], War Mattock [5 points], Halberd [5 points], Adrenal Defense, Lesser [10 points], Shield Training [20 points]

Special Ability ---
     Half Swording --- A person trained in this art may use his sword as a Hammer or a Staff by holding the blade to defend himself or attack.  Half-swording allows one to use Krush as an alternate critical at a -5 penalty (if one is using 2003 edition of Arms Law).

REKKENMARK FENCING
Advanced Weapon Style [35 Style Points]
Description --- Rekkenmark Fencing was developed at the Rekkenmark Academy as a gentleman's martial art.  Meaning that the fencing art is taught to nobles of the 5 nations and the Dragonmark Houses.  There are several styles of Rekkenmark Fencing, and the style is used in Gang Warfare as well as personal duels of honor.  People taught can be dashing rogues or rough and tumble fighters.  The art has spread to all of Khorvaire, except for the Demon Wastes and Breland; where they have developed their own style of fencing.

Existing Styles from the Martial Arts Companion: Use Classic Fencing, page 41 of the Martial Arts Companion.

KARRNATHI LONGBOWMANSHIP
Advanced Weapon Style [45 style points]
Description --- The best wood for the longbow actually comes from the Eldeen Reaches far to the west of Karrnathi.  However, ranged fighting was redeveloped and refined in Karrnathi.  The Longbow techniques are taught all around Khorvaire, although the Khoravar Elves have recently been learning Valenar Longbowmanship as of late.  The primary weapon used in Longbowmanship is the Eldeen Longbow.

More Artes de Mars!!

BRELLISH FENCING
Basic Weapon Style [20 Style Points]
Description -- During the Last War, while Breland was advancing the ideas of Democracy and Personal Freedom; it would trade alliances with Karrnath every ten years or so.  Sometimes Breland would be allied with Cyre, other times Thrane or Aundair.  During those times, Breland was unable to send its nobles to study at the Rekkenmark Academy.  As a result, Breland developed it's own Fencing art that reflected personal freedom and democracy.

Exsiting Martial Art Styles --  Use Italian Fencing for Brellish Fencing.


CYRAN SWORDSMANSHIP
Advanced Weapon Art [60 style points]
Description ---  During the Last War, battles with the Karrnathi skeletons and zombies had forced the Cyran military to develop new martial arts for its human and Warforged armies.  The new weapon art devised was Cyran Swordsmanship, and it was mainly developed to be used with the broadsword, longsword, or dagger.  The style is one that allows a Cyran Swordsman to avoid blows with the Undead and deliver devastating blows against their unliving opponents.  Whereas Karrnathi Swordsmanship is brutal and dynamic, Cyran Swordsmanship is very fluid with a lot of Adrenal Defense moves built in.  Comparing the two arts is like comparing an elegant, high quality Italian gellato with American ice-cream.

Recommended Skills --- Longsword skill, Broadsword Skill, Dagger Skill, Adrenal Balance, Adrenal Defense, Feinting, Disarm Foe (1H foe).
Weapon Art Abilities [Core] --- Longsword Attack [5 points], Broadsword attack [5 points]. Dagger attack [5 points], +1 to Critical Rolls [15 points], Adrenal Defense, Greater [30 points]
