    Add some Magma/Lava themed dwarves, and give dwarfs a heritage choice like Drakkin; with a bonus cold or fire or magic damage resist.

    Dwarves (including coldain) are not monsters.

    Although when we are deep into the ale vat we do resemble monsters at times.

    Luclin Cotiere vampires are pretty sweet
    Being a dragon race would be also be sweet...with a racial summon ability
    Sarnaks and Shissar would absolutely be awesome

    But the question should be: How bad do you want Iksar Berserkers for the next xpac?

    Not funny. Those have no wearable armor to speak off, and players running nekkid even as a cube is too gelatinous.

    I've always been a fan of the Discord baddies and would like to see a "Discord" race with the following options:
    • Ra`tuk (zerk)
    • Kyv (ranger)
    • Noc (rogue)
    • Mastruq (warrior)
    • Ikaav (int caster)
    • Aneuk (wis caster)

    Hero's Forge items for Gelatinous Cube would be quite a challenge. :cool:

    Art would no doubt veto me on this on technical restraints, but... Have the Hero's Forge items and weapons float within the cube. :D

    The hats should still be on top, but I agree with everything else.

    Since pc's ride mounts, what mount would a Gelatinous Cube ride without looking absolutely ridiculous?

    Oh that is simple: The mount would be inside the cube.

    Would it disappear when in an indoor zone? The cube would have an unfair advantage if the mount was permanent.

    Such a serious topic, LOL, I love it.

    I'm not bothered about a new race, but I would like illusions to show my armour like they do my weapons. :)

    The same as any new race would need to be able to show armour in all slots.....some of the animal suggestions maybe a bit of a challenge on that score.

    As long as the hammer is called Absor Smasher.

    Beholders should be a magic based player race.

    For the slayer's achievements a little floating skull would be added to the Cube. Not sure what evil eyes have for bone structure.
