Race Rules (at long last)

Prohibited professions will be grandfathered whether they were first, second, third or fourth but at the cost of 5 build.

Matt, your question about learning the racial skills is answered on page 4 in the section called "Racial Skill List". All racials can be self taught and have a max of one purchase each.

So under the new rules, just to clarify, I no longer need a teacher for the skill Magic Resistance as a Barbarian?

Also, I know it may sound silly, but didn't Barbarians start with 7 body?  And will the whopping 1 BP be added to previous character cards?

He already clarified that yes you don't need a teacher, and of course you will be getting the 1 body.

Thanks, I didn't see that until Brendan brought it up to the other Matt.

Ah ok.. wow... I really did miss that. Thanks.

So... I'm sitting here in a hotel room in Denver looking over the new races, and I came up with a question:

So can [strike]big[/strike]  [strike]old[/strike] [glow=red,2,300]super-huggable[/glow] people like me be Sylphs?  I'm thinking of me with all sparkly skin and butterfly wings, and as long as no pictures are ever taken, that's ok with me.  But no matter how much glitter I use, I'll never be "Lithe and Ethereal" I'm more "crickety and substantial" ... really more of a whim question, as I'm not sure people would be able to resist taking pictures of me dressed as a Sylph and sending it to my students.

I think chances are the same if I wanted to play a dwarf, Mike.

as I'm not sure people would be able to resist taking pictures of me dressed as a Sylph and sending it to my students.

That depends entirely on how much you're willing to pay...

Mike Janus played a hobbit at the anniversary event.  3"2" and terrified of the big, green meanie played by Teresa S.

Race Rules Updated.  Bear in mind, they were updated to the file provided.  Any errors (such as goblin have mage as a starting/penalized) are also in the Online Rulebook.

is it possible to purchase a hardcopy of the rules?

At the moment?  No.

Sometime in the future when the rules are all brought up to date..possibly

is it possible to purchase a hardcopy of the rules?

Thats the goal

That would be an awesome goal.

I would buy one. Every nerd needs one.
