Changes to Race Options in Eberron: Rising from the Last War

Eberron: Rising from the Last War is here! This is a setting book for the world of Eberron, which gives a different spin to the world of Dungeons & Dragons. In this world, players can choose unique race options besides the ones presented in the Player’s Handbook—the changeling, kalashtar, shifter, and warforged.

Wayfinder’s Guide to Eberron gave us the latest version of these options before Rising from the Last War, and there have definitely been some changes! In this post, we’ll talk about these updates. (This post is mainly focused on the changeling, kalashtar, shifter, and warforged options, so we won’t address any changes made to the dragonmark character options just yet.)

This most recent article introduces a giant-inspired fighter, a stranger ranger, and a spooky rogue!

Looking at UA: Bard and Paladin

(The classes who haven’t received UA in this round yet are wizard, druid, fighter, rogue, ranger and cleric—we’ve already covered half of the official classes!)

We’ve got a talkative bard subclass and a heroic paladin subclass in this article. Also, the survey for the sorcerer and warlock UA article is available.

Looking at UA: Barbarian and Monk

This week, we got some juicy Unearthed Arcana introducing two new subclasses: one for the barbarian and one for the monk. Both of these subclasses bring some fresh flavor to these classes, enabling a player to take their character in some fun and different places than the existing class options.

I think my group is pretty excited about these options—even a few of us who don’t usually go for these classes!

In this post, I’m going to go over the content of this new UA article and discuss my impressions. I’d love to hear yours, too!
