If i'm forgetting something that you believe should be a PLAYABLE race then add your imput and i'll update the list as I see fit

some issues is have:

Catfolk- increases risk of cyberers 10 fold

Kenku- birdman a scholar? you are aware that among species advanced enough to have a brain birds have the lowest brain/body ratio

mul- just a horribly oand unnessecary idea

draknoids-would give me nightmares

revenants- a good idea but not for playable charecters

Giants and orcs- too similar one should be eliminated

oni- should constitute the npc populace of demon island but should not be playable. there seems to be little logic behind many of these did you stop to think that maybe we can get by just playing as humans?

Cat Folk - Cypers appear anywhere
Giants/orcs are not the same whatsoever if only one must be kept it's orcs though
Mul- ... Nothing needs to be said
Kenku- My knowledge of this race is -very- limited

Ajustments will be made

catfolk-was a joke
orc- you are aware that the definition of orc directly compares them to giants

Nerd rage engage
Orc : proud warrior race with a strong sense of honor Shamantic values
Giant: Attributed to them are superhuman strength and physical proportions, a long lifespan, and thus a great deal of knowledge as well.

what are you using for refference? in traditional mythology the two were occaisionally used as symonyms

I'm basing this off stuff I remember from LoZ D&D RS Blue dragon, and WoW i'll do some backround checking on wiki/dictoary.com if it suits your fancy

i thought you took mythology

I did, greeks bore me you can't accpet knowledge from only one Sorce

gi⋅ant: a person or thing of unusually great size, power, importance, etc.; major figure;
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/Giant
orc: "ogre, devouring monster,"
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/orc
Whil the Dictionary sort of gives justice to Giants it unfairly steriotypes orcs (yes i'm treating this as if these were real races in the world we live in) Now then a more fair assment of knowledge can be found
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orc
Gives both the good and the bad seeing as I wish this to be a playable race and since you wish to have demons as unplayble I say then we take the good asspects of these noble races

Rant over

you are aware that initially i was reffering to gameplay but when you brought backstory into the fight i couldn't resist

Orcs-playable

giants- enviromental hazards as i reffer to wandering enemies

Giants are now up for debate let the public choose

Wow, you guys put in a lot of effort here, I'm proud of you, I bumped up your reputation a lot. Those do seem like good ideas, now we just need to make the descriptions more detailed. If you want you can make stats, the begining stats must equal up to 25, no more, no less. I think at this point I'm going to definitly have players *START* as their class and still have class advancements. For a "demonoid" we can have dark knight only (as opposed to Holy Knight; blood and dragon knight still options). Also look up the races from elder scrolls (it was for xbox). They had some f**** up races there that we can use. Please keep updateing.

Uhh sure i'll look into that before i hit the hay

Ok so... no... elder scroll ... no ._.

i think what hunny said was sweet!!!!all those races!!!! XD but mybe we should have the serpernoid/aqua race or mybe beastfolk people XD it would be kinda sweet!!!! OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!I HAVE AN IDEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ok ok...we could have vampires as a race along with werewolves!!!!!!!kinda neat if we think about it hua???

i was thinking mybe witches??i dont know i just thought ill introduce it to ya...cook up some ideas

No... No Vampire Race.... I enjoy my sanity, and the fact that the Twilight fad hasnt taken said sanity away yet. Werewolves would create the same annoyence.

Vampire and werewolf are fodder for a class not a race ~ which we are working on these things take time

Some kind of aquatic race that excels in water combat sounds like a good idea, beastfolk is tricky because ... what kind of beast would we use? You cannot stereotype all beasts, beasts range from giant spiders to bears to raptors.


So aquatic races...

Serpent-like = Naga

Other Aquatics... = mermaids w/o a giant fin for half their body... blue skin and little fins and scales on their bodies.

hello folks if you havn't noticed by now i'm rolling All Animal based races into one Beastfolk hope thats ok if not uhh voice your opinion

I think they should be separate; diversity makes games more interesting. Also, people like individuality.

We CAN have different racials for bird/people, cat/people, penguin/people, cow/people, wolf/people, owlkin/people.

Makes the game more unique.

Yay More Work for me

Small note: Shouldn't birdfolk recommended classes be, Theif + Archer? Last time I checked birds had minimal intelligence (actually it depends on the type of bird, and birds are actually very intellectual. Small brians does not always equal large intelligence), and have keen eyesight as well as swiftness and grace. I wouldn't recommend them for a stealthy theif class , I would recommend them for whichever offbranch of the thief class is more of a attacker rather then a hider, (IE: Bandits (= a better name for Jesse's pirate class)).

The way to encourage that would be to give them racials that promote offensive combat.

Example: 2% more attack speed

I think they would make good fallen monks, give them +stats to claw weapons. =P
