09-30-05, 01:51 PM I'm already drooling. The Renegade Mastermaker could really use a better name, but all I needed to read was 'Psiforged' and 'Psionic Artificer' and I was drooling all over my keyboard. :)

Nuff said. This book is going straight to the top of my list to buy. and the preview is making me want to play a Renagade Mastermaker.

Oh baby. I'm assuming these are 'The Breed' that's been mentioned already.

09-30-05, 07:10 PM I find it curious that they phrase it as 'Daelkyr Half-Bloods', not 'Half-Daelkyr' ... which makes me wonder what the OTHER half is.

Half-Daelkyr, Half Pit Fiend.

"All your base are belong to THAT."

Hmm. Perhaps half-Daelkyr, half-Illithid? Half-beholder?

Actually, I'm pretty sure it's going to be a PC-able race (LA+1, tops), but instead of a necessarily set racial package, there'll be one for each PC race in Eberron that could theoretically get mixed up with a Daelkyr (no Warforged, for instance), but rather than a totally different statblock for each, it'll have one line that will say 'pick one from this list' ... so the Dwarven version might get Stability, but the Elven one will get the immunity to sleep effects, or something like that (so it doesn't qualify as a 'subrace').

Alternately, I suppose it could just be a template ... for some reason, I was thinking this was the Player's Guide, not Magic of ... just a brain fart, nothing to see here, please move along, these aren't the droids you're looking for, we are not ninjas, we are a hedge ...
