Steeliest of the dragons
No. No. No...and No.
If people are right and this is some "let's put it in the playtest to see how it works" thing, then fine. But if I see one top-knotted hair in ANY of the core books, I will be really...miffed.
Kender are a Dragonlance setting-specific Race. They belong in a Dragonlance setting-specific book.
Warforged are an Eberron setting-specific Race. They belong in an Eberron setting-specific book.
The drow have no business being a PC race, imo. They don't belong in the PHB but are probably included as the FR setting race to draw in the drow-who-shall-not-be-named clon-er-ummm..."fans". So, for my two coppers, they belong in the FR setting-specific book as a playable race. They belong in the MM as a "monster" race of evil depraved demon-worshipping villainous elves. Not the PHB.
And Dragonborn...well, I made my peace with the inclusion of 4e races as a necessary evil-er-ummm...concession of the "edition to rule them all." So I suppose they belong in the core PHB to keep folks happy.
But regarding Kender and Warforged in core....in case ya missed it at the beginning...No. No. No and No!
