Val: I have this notion that the soul must be kept away from the Deader, otherwise it will turn into a real, bloodthirsty undead. I think the Deaders are more like golems than zombies, the makers just make use of a thing with all the right joints and so on, which would otherwise be expensive to make.... Go to Comment
First of all, let me say that I love the name! And while there was nothing wrong with the write-up I felt that it was somehow lacking. More like a frame for something then the actual "painting". It shows much promise though, and hints at some great ideas.
This could be expanded, and I would love it to be!

Good bones for a location, but currently somewhat missing the meat. You mentioned in chat that you would be changing that in time, so this vote is a placeholder - I'll change it as needed. Go to Comment
OK, ladies and gentlemen, I´ve added a map to this sub as well.
Sadly, it has to be a linked image, since our gallery ain´t accepting uploads at the moment.
As soon as it works again, I´ll put the map up as a nice thumbnail.
Hope you´ll like it!

Wow again. Lots of meat here, yet the write-ups manage to stay very compact. The inspiration for some of the races is visible, but doesn't poke into the eye... they are all very usable. It is indeed a good inspiration! Speaking for the formatting-crazy crowd, it could be easily split into a scroll, but it is fine as is.
Great work, O.! It is easy to create new races/minorities based on this list - I may end up doing that very thing. :) Go to Comment
Yes, I rather feel that many exotic unique kinds of humans can be more interesting (and work more logically- why do ALL THE ELVES IN THE WHOLE WORLD have the exact same culture?) than a bunch of semihuman creatures. If there are nonhumans, they had better be totally weird, or it really won't hold my attention. Go to Comment
Excellent expose. I pretty much agree with the previous comments.
The races are original and pertain to your world, but can be recalibrated with ease to use in ANY world.
favorites:
Grassdancers (I have the perfect place for them in my campaign world)
People of the Autumn Kingdom (fur hats and crustacean enamelled armor!)
Earthroot Tribes (dwarves)
If i were to create something like this, based on my campaigns, it would look very similar. Lots of rich, exotic humans in lieu of the ubiquitous demi-humans. Go to Comment
