Prestige races.

Does anyone know if theirs going to be prestige races? Like Githyanki, drow, shield dwarves and Illithid?

Shield Dwarfs and Drow are a possibility, I would have thought. However, I don't think we''l see PC Githyanki or Illithade running around.

From what I've seen so far though, it doesn't look like they are including much in the way of sub-races as yet, so you may still have to pick a simple dwarf rather then a shield dwarf.

Well prestige classes are not exactly what they are, just highlevel creatures that has alot of specialties. Could be cool though and perhaps there will be a way to make them yourself or download..

Shielddwarves should be in the game, since they are a standard Dwarven race in Faerun. The Gith-races could be cool to have along.

Also Drow and Aasimars, Tieflings and such could e nice to play!

A KOBOLD /BARBARiAN/ROUGE!!!

he I tried him out agains my 3:ed playgroup this week.. Hehehe, with his twohanded handaxe and lightspear he succesfully backstabed one person and then had a rage LOL!!!

Oicture yourself a Lizardlike little bugger not much more than a foot tall and with a complex like Conan heheh!!!

Hmm, sorry for the roumblings!

Personaly I hope they dont, prestige races are a bit powerful and even the players handbook warns on using them because they can throw off play balance, and the way they balanced it was the level handicap where to play a certain race at level 1 the rest of the party had to have a average of a certain level.

Githyanki and Illithid, just an example, a Illithid can turn into an Ullithid.

I hope they have some real cool evil monsters too! Like an Illithid-lich hehehehe!!!!

Also my personal favourite would be to be able to play psionicd in the game. For once be able to battle thoose illithids on their playground!!!

Actually something scarier is a kobold Rogue/Sorceror who has taken weapon focus ray attack, improved critical ray attack version of Ottiluke's Freezing Sphere, Maximise Spell, and is within thirty feet of his target, catches them flat footed or just happens to be flanking them and manages to pul off a back attack critical (the additional surprise damage isn't done but the spell damage multiplies). Now that really hurts!!!

Lol he is scary since he has to be a real HIGH level sorcereor and rouge.. But yes indeed, since the little bugger has a great ac and hide bonus and the oitiluks sphere can in the next action,, his normal action unless the first spell is his suprise action.. the second as a area effect spell.. Can anyone say" OUCH!!!" hehe!

Hmm, do you think that one can play a Kobold??
