Breaking News: Kuo-Toa Not Froggy Anymore

[Eldragon]

If they ever have rules for Kua-toa PCs, they will have breasts.

At which point the Kua-toas will be renamed "Fishborn" and they have breasts, tastefully covered by kelp and sea shells.

 

[Shadeydm]

There was this quote in Worlds & Monsters:

For fey, the goal was similar. Scantily clad human females set in the woods, to me, aren't nymphs or dryads -- they're scantily clad human females with a couple of extra powers. Where's the imagination? Where's the fantasy?​

Bill Slavicsek has clearly failed to understand the reason for having scantily clad human females in the woods.

This might be the worst news about 4E so far!

Can anyone here show us the proper pronounciation for these races' names?

Here's a start, from http://www.wizards.com/dnd/DnDArchives_FAQ.asp :

Sahuagin: sah-HWAH-gin
Ixitxachitl: iks-it-ZATCH-i-til or ik-zit-zah-chih-tull

dictionary.com says nereid is: neer-ee-id

I'm waiting to see a downside to this.

Not so bad... read properly... i helped you with bolding the most important part...

wonder what those extra powers are...

Umm.... you'd always second-guess where your glass of milk originated?

No, Shadeydm is right to worry. This is the dryad:

And coincidentally, here's a sentient tree in Guild Wars:

[Lonely Tylenol]

The original Deep Ones were the sahuagin. Any word on what's happening to them in 4E?

That said, all of these fish-folk tend to merge into each other after some time.

Well, I got a sahuagin in my "4E preview" Deserts of Desolation booster. I don't know if that means anything.

I think what he meant was that there's no reason to fret, because now we can kill tree looking things while saving the scantily clad human with extra powers, in the forest.

Yeah, I can see the Greek gods lining up to bang one of those....

Maybe it's the age in which we live. In the late 1970s, before the Internet, we got our porn where we could, and the 1e MM (And 1e D&DG...you know the picture I mean...) was a lot better than National Geographic. Now, with that niche well and truly filled, we get THAT for Dryads.

Insert some lame pun using a double entendre of 'wood' here.
