Races - Mostly by Dunamisdeos, sort of
« on: September 21, 2012, 11:34:27 am »

So I was wondering, I realize that I've modded a whole lot of new races into my game, but not posted them up here. Would anyone be interested in playing them? They're just in my creature and entity standard files right now, but I could paste them into their own files and make them stand-alone.

They aren't anything new as far as fantasy races go, and for the art, I've pretty much just done some palette swapping and none-to-moderate pixel art on existing sprites from the Pheobus set. But hey, I did the raws. Might be nice to just plug in new races from time to time.

-They are-
High Elves
Dark Elves
Frost Giants
Fire Giants
Halflings
Orcs

I've also changed the name of the vanilla elves to "Wood Elves". All of these races are complete with unique ethics, weaponry, and nobles. I've been playing them for awhile, and they all play nice together in worldgen, with the notable exception of Frost Giants. They have a tendancy to wipe out fledgeling nations in murderous rampages, but an established civ can hold their own.

When in doubt, MAGMA.

Fixed that for you.

But, in all seriousness, I'd love to see hobbits. Perhaps they'd be less drunkardly and more human like?
Frost Giants and pretty much everything there except for Hobbits and Fire Giants are used quite a bit.

I know you gave it to Putnam.

If you could still OP it, I wouldn't; I have too many god damned mods already, IMO.

LOL. I could tell you I was speaking for everyone else, but I literally did not look at who was posting. Commence light mockery.

Anyway, I'll post this stuff up presently in another thread.
