[QUOTE="Turjan, post: 2178786, member: 3477"] Well, regarding the five creator races, there is a bit of information in Serpent Kingdoms. 1. Stats and shape of humans are in the PHB :D. And they are obviously still there :). 2. The sarrukh (=sauroids) have their own chapter in Serpent Kingdoms. They created "serpentfolk and scalykind" ;). Some sarrukh are still present in southern jungles, but most of them left for other planes. They are an LA+8 race. 3. The batrachi (=amphibioids) are the creators of bullywugs, doppelgangers, kopru, kuo-toa, locothah, sivs, tako and other shapeshifting, amphibious, or piscine races. Their fate is unrecorded, but they may have moved to limbo and be known as slaadi. 4. The aearee (=avians) are the creators of the aaracokra, kenku, other birdlike humanoids. They flew to Maztica, but there their track got lost. ("Other sages leave out the aearee but include dragons in the list.") 5. The fey (=sylvans) are the creators of korreds, sprites, and pixies. They still rule in Faerie, but their connections to Faerun grow faint. The fey never ruled Faerun, but all others did at one time of history. Sarrukh, batrachi, and aearee all contributed to the Nether Scrolls, with the sarrukh contribution being the 'Golden Skins of the World Serpent', a collection of their knowledge. [/QUOTE]
