[QUOTE="Qik, post: 5953420, member: 6673727"] Out of the three of those, the one that bothers me the least is the Tengu. I also thought the introduction of SLAs seemed a bit unintegrated into the race as a whole, but I can live with that. Like you said, we can find ways to explain them within our own canon. From the remaining two, the Strongtail merfolk racial trait is the one the strikes me as the most problematic. I would be against including it into LPF. I suppose an extra 10' isn't catastrophically over-powered, as there are already ways around the merfolk's speed limitations, but I don't like the idea of making it that much easier for anyone. Fiendish Vessel - I see the problems with this, and imagine it will get excluded as well. It's kind of a shame, because, fluff extracted, it's an interesting archetype for a cleric - the whole free Improved Familiar is pretty awesome. But yes, the evil alignment/evil god-worshipping/evil fluff is a deal-breaker for LPF. In short: I'd say [B][COLOR="Lime"]YES[/COLOR][/B] to the tengu without exception, and [COLOR="Red"][B]NO[/B][/COLOR] to the Fiendish Vessel and the Strongtail Merfolk trait. PS ~ Fiendish Vessel would make a great villain, though. [/QUOTE]
