PH3 Playtest Race: Wilden

[Rani]

They've put the name up for it here: Dungeons & Dragons Roleplaying Game Official Home Page

Anybody heard of them before?

 

[Fallen Seraph]

That's new, wasn't there before. Unless that is a mistake. Hmm, either rename of a race, or a new race. It is close to Wilder though a Psionic class from 3.5. It be funny if they made a mistake and the Wilden is actually a Psionic class in 4e based off the Wilder

Could be the Narnia style talking animals mentioned in Races & Classes, or perhaps a renamed hengeyokai. But if it's a race of Celestial badger-dwarves from the Astral Sea, I will not be happy.

Nowhere does it say "race", just "PH3 Platest: Wilden". I think a typo here can make the Wilder...

 

[Inyssius]

Except we already know that they're playtesting a new race from PHB3 this month.

That's a good point. While they did mention last month that we'd be seeing a playtest race this month, it doesn't say "race" there now. It's possible they changed their minds on what to show us. Who knows!

As was mentioned elsewhere, the Dragon TOC still says race:

Oops, haha, nevermind then.

Well it is up: Dragon 374: Wilden Playtest

With the dew of their creation still wet upon their brows, the wilden emerge from the Feywild's unspoiled reaches, from ancient bogs and primeval forests. Awakened to combat the growing corruption plaguing the lands, they shoulder the burden of restoring the natural order and purging the aberrant horror from the world.

They are based off the Killoren.

 

[kenmarable]

Live now. They are re-do of the killoren from Races of the Wild.

Update: Ninja'ed!! I knew I shouldn't have bothered.
