05-07-06, 09:52 PM I need a new race that would work in Faerun. Any suggestions?

(or in other words: You should be a little more precise)

05-08-06, 10:39 AM I thin everything would fit in a campaign if you change the story a bit. You could even use Warforged (Eberron) in your Faerun campaign.

I like the Extaminaar from Champions of Ruin if you want to know which race we like from the Faerun campaign.

05-08-06, 05:10 PM That depends on your definition of "what works in Faerun". What do you need this race for?

Just go ahead and put gods in your FR campaign as a player race. They'll need to be one if they want to do anything in the world anyway *scowl*.

05-09-06, 09:06 AM There's a whole section on Races (http://boards.wizards.com/forumdisplay.php?f=18). What sort of race do you want?

I'm rather fond of the Skraal (http://boards1.wizards.com/showthread.php?t=343784), but of course I'm rather biased! At least there's a good reason why most folks don't know much about them (considering where they live: they're a sort of super-Inuit for arctic regions). This is something you need to consider when introducing a new race into an existing setting: if they live among the regular races, why haven't they made their own mark on history already?
