Time to redeem the Drow? Bring the Best D&D Goddess to DDO!

Hopefully, literally anything that isn't watering down the game with more FR.

I agree to an extent. As much as I would like to see Eilistraee in DDO, I really would like to see more Eberron in DDO and less FR. We have an entire continent of Khorvaire and the only places we've explored there are Sharn and an abandoned facility in the Mournlands. I would rather visit Thrane or Karrnath.

Tiamat originates in Mesopotamian mythology, rather than a TSR copyright. To have her show up in both FR an Ebberon (As well as a score of other products since 1975) just means that the idea of a public domain 5-headed dragon queen/god carries a lot of narrative weight in a game who's name consists of just under 50% dragons. That's not a crossover, that's an archetype that's older than Christianity.

Eh, Tiamat the Mesopotamian character is quite a bit different than the character that WoTC has the copyright to. Sea serpent vs 5 headed dragon goddess who has a red, blue, green, black, and white head and rules over chromatic dragons. In Eberron the only difference is that she corrupts dragons whether they are chromatic or metallic although she has an easier time with chromatic ones. Whether or not they are the exact same character I think is purposefully left up to interpretation. It's just one of the many things WoTC likes to leave open so DMs can use it as a way to move players between different settings.

Tiamat from Eberron/FR vs Takhisis from Dragonlance is a similar but more complex can of worms.

Something related to this that I thought was interesting is the characters from the Feywild expansion. The Prince of Frost and Titania are both characters that I am familiar with from the Feywild in the Forgotten Realms, but I've heard discussion that the Feywild in DDO is from the Eberron setting yet different from Thelanis. I really don't understand how things tie in together in that regard but I guess that's part of the whimsical nature of the Feywild.

Tthe best part is how the hell do you even pronounce her amazing name?

I'd like to see more deity choices in general.
