[QUOTE="Ashanderai, post: 2589843, member: 13210"] I agree with Truthseeker regarding the Skarn. Andromeda was the first thing I thought of when I saw their entry. Visually, I like the skarn with their spines and the idea of being able to fold them flush to their skin, but I think they should have gone a little bit more alien-like or reptilian-like in their appearance. The rilkan should have been less human-like as well. I agree that the mechanics for the races is weak with one exception. I thought the rilkan abilities are a small step above the other races as far as original ideas for a racial mechanic. They took a page out of the akashic class for a racial memory ability drawn from their link with incarnum that gives a bonus to knowledge skills and bardic knowledge checks - not an original mechanic or idea, but neat and somewhat flavorful. The azurin are just humans modified to be better with incarnum by sacrificing skill points for a point of incarnum and being penalized with gaining a favored class in soulborn. [/QUOTE]
