[QUOTE="catsclaw, post: 4143699, member: 59911"] The eladrin are subject to the same fate as the elves, so they're not around. Yes to the feywild and the shadowfell: based on what little we know about them they will fit just fine. Tieflings and dragonborn already have places mapped out for them. Tieflings are recent, a byproduct in some fashion of the open warfare between devils and demons. Dragonborn are the inheritors of a vast empire in the northern desert--but their numbers have dwindled drastically over the past 2,500 years, and now they form isolated tribes in the midst of ancient temples and cities now abandoned and covered in sand. They're not mentioned on the site since they're not OGL. Shifters, likewise, can easily fit into the one of the forests formerly inhabited by the elves. There are a few places I can think of where warforged would fit, but they're so closely associated with Eberron I'd be reluctant to use them. If someone had a fantastic idea for them and wanted to write it up, though, we wouldn't object. Ultimately, yes. Our first goal is to flesh out the setting. Then we're going to start publishing the Adventure Path, and use that to build up detailed materials on the races and countries (and Paragon Paths, and talent trees, and the like) you'd encounter on the way. At that point we'll have [i]more[/i] than enough information to publish a campaign setting book, and from there we'd like to start moving the timeline of the world forward, and have players be able to reshape the world. That's still a ways off, and of course all depends on when and if there's a GSL forthcoming from Wizards. [/QUOTE]
