First look of the Dragonborn?

[Simia Saturnalia]

After enlarging the picture (and using my secret TV-show image enhancer), I must admit I was wrong. There is an ear visible on his head and the dragonborn in R&C have no ears.

So, it's a fiendish gnoll after all.

Maybe it's Orcus?

Where's that "drumroll" smilie when you need it?

Here's an enlarged version of the cover I whipped up:

Now that I see it larger, I'm thinking it's an Orcus-tainted bugbear. The triangular ears, the spiky fur on the head and the bear-like snout makes me lean towards bugbear, and the wings and torch (too Wand of Orcus-y to be coincidence) bring the infernal touch.

Hmmm... Paladin of Orcus, maybe?

I take back my comments. I now see the fur and nose. Fiendish Lolcat is is.

Maybe it is the SUPER SECRET unannounced race

That would be the dragonborn, and they're not-so-secret anymore.

You, sir, are a gentleman and a scholar.

Is that a wyvern tail?
