[QUOTE="Serendipity, post: 5811005, member: 18216"] I went with None of the above and Something completely different...let me explain because I want something *like* character kits, but not so close that it'd be the same thing. What I've heard about themes sounds like a combo of 4e themes and pathfinder archetypes and THAT I am all over. I'm content for PrCs to occupy an optional strata that I may or may not ever make use of as a GM depending on how it's implemented (Hint: if it looks anything like it did in 3.5, no way.) And I really really really don't want the return to the ice cream shop of flavors approach to races. I've mentioned elsewhere that I really would like a sharp differentiation between innate physical capability and culture for all of the races. It occurs to me that you could create 'culture packs' - a dedicated set of theme/theme-y things to chose from when you make your race selection, based on which ones were available by campaign setting or whatever. THAT would be the bees knees as far as I'm concerned. [/QUOTE]
