Okay... A couple of questions...
I've been following the thread since it started, about mid-day, here, and I haven't seen it asked (I don't think), and I'm rather curious:
In Races of Faerun, it was described that there is a whole hit-die and level adjustment to lycanthropes. However, in Savage Species, it gives lycanthropes a base +3 LA. Does RoF over-ride what SS wrote about lycanthropes? If so, how can one incorporate it without the hit-die (or can it be extrapolated from RoF)? I ask because I am currently playing a lycanthrope in a game and was somewhat unsure of how to account for the added power of it (btw, it's a were-lion - based off the were-tiger lycanthrope and using the SS LA of +3).
And, a more 'usage' inquiry: I will be running a game where characters can choose to play pretty much whatever race they want (thanks to SS and the LA system). I was wondering how helpful RoF would be to the game, in general. IOW, is it more geared for Faerun or can it be useful in a general game?
Sorry about the long post. I tend to babble... v.v;;
