Shattered Kingdoms

Goblins, Orcs are awesome.

Or, D could give out any ideas he would be open to, for adding a permanent race to the game. Im sure a Grp plan could take a month or more to build, but surely a new fun race would not be hard to implement with our currently active staff? Or he could not give out any ideas, and work on this secretly. *cough*

Honestly though, I'd rather see a new class implemented, or area. But I know these things take a lot more planning than a Race, imo.

I'm not actually looking to ever add more races. If I were to add a race, it would have to be one that already has an ecological niche in the world and would not be actively shunned from most capitol cities for being uncivilized. Call me racist, but orcs don't meet the second criteria.

What race might meet this criteria? Off the top of my head? Merfolk. I suppose if you really wanted to do them as a race, one power of merfolk could be a partial polymorph to have scaled legs when on land.

I would rather see more mid-high level areas before new races/classes. Dreamscape was a step in the right direction. Demystifying the Iron Citadel for the playerbase would also be a real treat.

Perhaps a God of Light leads a group of faithful light hearts to descend upon the Grand General who has sent daemons to infest the land. Wow, just had a flashback to one of the old adept spells. I really miss that cabal.

Imho, the amount of races/classes we have is good. What we need, however, is an overhaul of our cabal/tribunals/kingdoms. Update skill/spell sets, take a look at CRS meaning more, a real economic system, and merge/delete/create new ones (cabals, and kingdoms), and have some sort of areas change kingdom owner hands.

That would add far more to the dynamics of SK than a new race or class.

Move CRS to tribunals.

Combine the Hamkeeps and Druardians.

Achernar had a phenomenal idea for tribunal conflict resolution, that involved outposts and capturing actual territory and the like a couple of years ago. It was a truly inspired idea. I'm sure there's a thread about it somewhere but I'm not in a position to go searching for it just now. I'd much rather see that implemented than any new races.
