The Tapestry has no large-scale industries. However, its members are constantly exploring new paths of magic. Although they don’t produce massive quantities of treasure, they might develop spells or magic items that can’t be found elsewhere on Eberron.
The youngest of the Argonnessen territories—a mere 4,000 years old—the Tapestry of Thought is a gathering place for mostly younger dragons who seek to broaden draconic culture. These free thinkers want to mix draconic lineages, rather than clinging to flights and families, and to separate the notion of age from that of status. Only the fact that so many of them are talented students of the Prophecy prevents more tradition-bound dragons from dismissing them utterly.
The other dragons of Argonnessen ignored the Tapestry movement until the first appearance of dragon marks on humanoids—an event that dragons of the Tapestry had been predicting for years. Eventually, convinced by their accuracy in interpreting the Prophecy, the Conclave allowed these dragons to observe and even influence events beyond Argonnessen in the form of the organization known as the Chamber.
The Tapestry has a far looser social structure than other domains; a dragon’s standing is based more on its ideas and abilities than on age or bloodline. Despite their interest in the dragon marks, the dragons of the Tapestry still consider other creatures to be beneath them. The humanoids of the Tapestry are no more than second-class citizens.
The Tapestry is the youngest and smallest of the territories, born less than four thousand years ago. The dragons of the Thousand cling to their individual flights, and to the traditions and philosophies they see as the property of their lineage. The founders of the Tapestry wanted to bring dragons of different colors together, to set aside the idea that influence and age were inseparable, and to consider new ideas about religion and the draconic Prophecy. They might have established themselves in the Vast, but many of the young dragons hated the violence found there. One of their main objections was the process of sending the young into the Vast, a tradition intended to weed out the weak. Initially, their efforts received little support from the Conclave, but they continued, predicting a great change in the shape of the Prophecy.
Then the first dragonmarks appeared.
In the wake of this event, the Conclave agreed to provide the young dragons with territory to continue their work. This land came to be known as the Tapestry of Thought, since it was intended as a land where all colors would come together as one. In time, the Conclave agreed to let the dragons of the Tapestry act abroad, and so the Chamber was born.
The Tapestry is the home base of the Chamber, although some dragons of the Vast serve in that body. In the Tapestry, dragon mystics, prophets, and sages continue their work, while their elders defend the activities of the Tapestry and the Chamber before the Conclave. Both the Eyes of Chronepsis and the wyrms of the Conclave have grave doubts about allowing dragons to intentionally interfere with the outcome of the Prophecy, and many wish to shut down these activities and force the dragons of the Chamber to rejoin the Thousand or disperse into the Vast. For now, however, the Tapestry remains a crucible for new ideas.
