Eberron RPGA Campaign and Miniatures

The first FAQ for the RPGA Eberron campaign Mark of Heroes is up. Of interest to miniature gamers is this passage:

Will there be fastplay characters?
Yes. Early November heralds the release of six fastplay characters keyed to figures in the D&D Miniatures Aberrations set. We’ll advance these core six characters throughout the campaign level kicks. With each new miniature set comes more fastplay characters. For instance, in late February we’ll unleash four new fastplay characters keyed to figures featured in the D&D Miniatures Deathknell set. And starting with Deathknell, basic stats for those fastplay characters are featured on the roleplaying side of the stat cards, so you can play them right out of the box.

Just a note: Fastplay characters don't have names, so it's not automatic that they'd be iconic characters. Instead, they'll be normal miniatures, though possibly with an Eberron theme, much like the Valenar Commander and the Sharn Cutthroat.
