A class or template that grants you glowing head-runes? That's cool. Even a small class (paragon or prestige). But a race? Bleah.I feel the same way about the Incarnum races. Their big abilities are things you can invest Incarnum in and boost, so why not make that racial feature into a Feat that normal Humans can take? Or into some other kind of soulmeld augment?Next campaign world I start -- and it'll be a while I'm sure -- will probably have these races:Human- Changeling (feat)- Shifter (feat)- Elan (transformational PrC)- Tiefling (transformational PrC)- Half-Dragon (three transformational PrCs)- Giant (feat + transformational PrC)WarforgedKobold (Yuan-ti created slave race)Many of the standard "evil" races will be Humans who have joined Abyssal Beast Cults (e.g. Gnolls will be human cultists of Yeenoghu who have transformed themselves in a depraved rite). Yuan-ti will be there, too. Basically, a world of humans, and the evil they have created. <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/devious.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":]" title="Devious    :]" data-shortname=":]" />Cheers, -- N</blockquote>
