[QUOTE="shaylon, post: 2300115, member: 22867"] Less Cool-In agreement with most, I would have to go Drow here. Enough about them, they raid the surface all the time, but for what end? I am tired of them. More Cool-Evil Humanoid BBEG's. It may sound strange to some of you, but with the advent of good writers making adventures and people with real writing experience coming up with motives for evil characters I think they are most improved. In the old days it wasn't always clear why the "Mad Wizard" or "Elite Warrior" acted in the manner that they did. They were just "Evil", so that is the way it was. Now you see more in depth characters with real motivations, and the line between good and evil is sometimes blurred. I think many times it makes for a great story. Also More Cool-Kobolds. I know some have stated they disagree but after Tucker's Kobolds you have seen a much tougher opponent. Not sure when Tucker was around, but I only recently discovered them and I have a newfound respect for them. -Shay [/QUOTE]
