    A new character race would follow the path of least resistance. More model action and refinement already exists for the evil addition already. Emotes, movements, sounds. The most likely candidate for it is.........

    I don't think there were any true evil frogloks, unless they were the undead frogloks in Lower Guk.

    I always thought some dwarven variants would be cool. You could play a Coldain. I mean, they wouldn't be an evil race, but I'd imagine it'd be one of the easier options. Maybe they could adapt the classic orcs that seemed to have player skeletons. Barring that, adapt the troll skeleton and give it an orc head.

    So you are down with the Goblin Character!
    Awesome saws!
    Sweeten the Deal ~ Give us Goblins as a character race to play & I will vacate posting on Forums entirely :)

    By the way the only reason I mentioned sirens was because they would be a water race so possible underwater area, and because they remind me of the DnD Air Genasi or Sea Elf.

    It may have sounded stupid but that's why.

    I want Hua'Mein player characters. Maybe they'd fit the Ogre model?

    I would like to see a siren or dryad(with legs not a trunk) type or even add new hair style/face markings for characters we already have

    I'd agree on this - Just nice little things.. Maybe not hairstyles, yet, until they can get everytthing onto one skeleton for ease of access.

    But, what about color variation? If possible, just for everything around? I have no idea how easy it would be to add say, darker skin colors for the fairer races or just overall different hair colors. I don't know, I just think it would be neat.

    New hairstyles would be nice, I agree.

    Maybe not in the past. But a new evil that turns formerly good races evil?

    PERFECT! Then being an evil offshoot, you could call them the inhua meins.

    Not initially when the race was added. I heard they could start choosing evil deities to start with only after the Trolls retook Grobb, which the Frogloks initially took over for themselves in the first place. That all happened well after EQ2 came out, so I wasn't around to see that happen.

    I'm not *against* the idea of Sirens or Werewolves being introduced as an evil race, but Norrath already has a large number of both Sirens and Werewolves who have proven they aren't inherently malicious. The Lyrech faction of Werewolves are directly opposed to Mayong Mistmoore in the Loping Plains. The Sirens of Cobalt Scar are predators by nature-- there's a quest in Cobalt Scar where a siren tricks you into thinking they need your help, but they lure you into a trap for them to feast on your corpse. I suppose if Sirens were to be introduced as an evil player race, the Sirens of Siren's Grotto would be the most likely source.
