It was previously announced at Gen Con there will be an oriental build for Runpriest called the Kanji. At Today’s Rule of Three it was announced that October will be the month related to Oriental topics. There it was mentioned that we are going to see builds for monks and assassins, but they didn’t mention anything about the new Runepriest build:


“We will be supporting Kara-Tur and Oriental Adventures during October. Nearly all of that month's content will include orient-themed material. Content includes (but is not limited to) several character themes, a backdrop, new assassin and monk options, adventures, and a new character race, the hengeyokai.”

Either they forgot, or they changed their minds and realized that there's no reason the 'runes' can't be kanji already.

or the new monk is the kanji monk instead of a runepriest.

Or they just mentioned one thing we already knew about and two we didn't.  Not that hard.

given the number of other flaws in that particular RoT, I imagine the Kanji Runpriest is still safe and sound and on its' way. It better be, because out pending OA is counting on it!

so if the gencon spoiler mentioned ninja assassins, kanji runepriests, themes and an optional honor system but not a new monk or a race. Rule of three mentioned new assassin and monk options, themes, and new race (hengeyokai) but not the kanji runepriest or the honor sytem. then is it possible there are more races or classes in store for us or do you think that three "classes" are enough and the hengeyokai are complicated enough that there probably wont be enough room for more races and stuff?

It's doubtful that it will be more than that. Depending how they designed the Hengeyokai it may be a a high wordcount article, and full builds worth of info takes up a lot of space.

I really hope it hasn't been dropped. I'm looking forward to making a minotaur runepriest of this discipline, named Mu Kao of course.

It looks like the Kanji was indeed cancelled.

It was released in Dragon 404 back in October.
