WayneLigon said:And yet, people are picking this out as if it's a new thing. Apparently some people just skim the PHB or MM, since dwarves in D&D have almost always been 'of color' (usually various earth tones), yet most D&D artists for book covers and game boxes portray them as short white people/Vikings.
No, that's not it, I never said darker skin tones for certain races were new. I said diversity was...you know creating a "diverse" range of skin tones for the demihumans. By giving Elves, and hopefully the other demi-humans the full range of skin tones that humans have...they are still more diversified in 4e than how they (as a whole) were presented in the PHB 3e.
Side Note: Anyone who doesn't like the halflings new hair really needs to look on page 20 of the 3.5 PHB...isn't this the exact same style?
