All of these are MTLZQ\KPUIKPQVM[. They are
wondrous locations: magic items of immense
power, but so large that they cannot be moved.
-TLZQ\KPUIKPQVM[always require rare components
but creating an MTLZQ\KPUIKPQVMcould require one
or more planes to be coterminous or it might
only be possible to build it in a manifest zone.
Ultimately, MTLZQ\KPUIKPQVM[are plot devices.
Their powers are far beyond the standard level
of what is possible in Eberron, but such a device

create these seals have been long lost. It’s said
that as a whole, the LQUMV[QWVIT[MIT[keep the
daelkyr bound in Khyber and prevent Xoriat
from becoming coterminous with Eberron.
If enough of these seals are destroyed, there
could be serious consequences for the world.

Mabar, infusing the dead with the malign
energies of the Endless Night. While it is
active, any creature that dies within two miles
of the resonator reanimates in one round as a
zombie under the control of creature attuned
to the device. At the DM’s discretion, more
powerful creatures can return as other forms
of undead.
