nah i think its fine, i gave out the possibilities to participate to everyonem, races are more like civilizations, so basically 11 country is good, we cant cover the world with less than 10, next step is to get our location on the map made by Beam, after that, i will try to rework on the Race Template to add more stuff, to be more precise. While i do this you guys can start drawing and looking at your race hitory, after this we need creatures and animals to create.

By the way, there are currently eleven races (there will be twelve when Beam officially adds his). They are all listed on the first page. Do we need more?

I'd say that 12 is enough... now we need creatures... lots and lots of creatures...

For creature concepts, http://www.jefbertels.be => mu uncle, he's a pro painter and he pwns. I don't think there's a problem in basing units off his paintings but if you wanna use a painting's art you'll have to contact him.

Here's another pic - the Kobran Sorcerer.

I'll add info later - got to get to class.

EDIT: Okay, let's try this now.

Kobrani sorcerers are a mysterious and superstitious bunch. Each sect focuses on mastering a single energy - fire is the most common, though others exist, such as electricity and sound. Many kobrani sorcerers are sworn to the service of their Arbiters, and almost all focus on the aspects of combat.
Becoming a sorcerer is a tricky procedure, and so far, no outsiders have been accepted. Korbrani sorcerers claim that magic is a thing of the blood, and aspiring apprentices undergo many tests to prove their "blood" to their masters. High values in these tests seem to include determination, inventiveness, and speed.
The structure of the kobrani sorcerers is very loose, more like a chain of masters and students. Relations with spellcasters outside of this chain are formal and peer-to-peer, no matter the experience of either sorcerer.
The Ptarex are an odd species of raptor (the avian kind), known to some as "bat-hawks" for their small "hands" at the end of their wings, which they use on occasion to grip to the sides of trees. The kobrani believe that these creatures are deeply tied with the "blood-magic", and bind the birds of prey to them through a ritual unknown to outsiders. Most of the more powerful sorcerers have one at their service. and they can act as the eyes and ears of their masters. Some sorcerers are even said to cast spells through their familiars, although there is no evidence of this claim.

i dunno if ull like my idea or not but here it goes for me:

simply a merchant hero, can sell items to other players and doesnt have to worry about money because he sells teh items no one else BUT since if the player advanced highly and got the most powerfull items then it could get really stupid so i have a solution to it the hero cant attack! he can die but he cant attack! maybe something he should have is mass teleport or something so he can get around faster or have a goblin zeplin type unit to carry him around

a building that will sell/make the items for the merchant to make money off.

the merchant will use the money for buying units (e.g. gaurds, builders to protect him more cause he cant attack) i dont want the merchant to be powerfull just someone everyone could benifit off

the area would be just a small secluded area reachable easily by all


p.s. i hope its not to late to get my suggestion in i only found this lately... if someone could tell me soon then it would be nice THANKS IN ADVANCE!

yea its a bit chaotic for someone who see this now, basically its have nothing to see with warcraft for now, we create a world with histories and illustrations, after we are done maybe someone will like this and make a mod for warcraft with it or not..
Anyway i will need to update my race, i must stop being lazy and scan some drawings

Btw nice drawing marco i really like your glove design its really cool

Edit: alright i got Shumack here

Interesting . . . I wonder if we'll ever see one without a mask . . .

And as an off-comment, how will race history work? Certainly no one can work on their history alone, unless we want a short "creation" history or if the races have lived by each other all this time without communication. Wihat sort of group discussion will we require?

IRC is best for it...

But I have conveniently solved that problem by having a relatively secluded group.

Yeah, most of my history should be isolated as well, but there are a few instances where the kobrani get into a few wars. I'll look into the IRC thing.

Hmm yes i think IRC, msn or aim, i dont actually know how Irc work (believe it or not)

For the race history you can involve a war if you want but im pretty sure you can make a decent one if your race isnt a millitary one (mine is millitary organised) im looking forward to team up with anyone for a war history

you will probably see my ppl without mask, mostly females like the foragers but anyone involved in wars wear an uniform so most of them wear a full armor, maybe the soldiers since its not really an obbligation to wear it 24/7

i posted 3 drawing so far

-Officer (armored until he go sleep)
-Champion (well they live with this armor 24/7)
-Shumack (a spirit in an armor nothing much to say)
