Ahh see I thought you may have been leaning towards the Krynn interpretation for Minotaurs. But since it wasn't stated it was a tad bit confusing as to how to make a group of level 1s balanced with what would have been effectively a higher level character. And the Drakken looks like it'll work...
Solid update!! I really enjoy the new player's guide, there is one concern I have. I was really hoping that you guys would have the time to sort of develop the races from Ber a bit to give them a nice Pathfinder treatment. I'm unfamiliar with the rules in 4E for playing a Minotaur, Half Dragon...
