I would like to have a race generator that I could use to make my own worlds with the races that I would like to have populating them. After several mentions on other posts I realized that I hadn't given any thoughts on how to go about this. Back in tha day, I remember playing a game that had diff. animals you would play & roam around attacking other types of animals, the cool part was that you could take say a lion & mix it with lets say an elephant and have a monsterous lionphant with the constitution/size and hide of the elephant & the claws, head, speed of the lion. I think if we had a list of 20-100ish diff "animal" (wolf, ogre, bandit, snake, spider, troll, dragon, eagle, centepede, ant, slug, clam, lobster, crab, octopus, bull, scorpion, shark, etc.) body types to choose from that we could take say the hard exterior of the ant with the regen of a troll, or the size of a blue whale with the features of a squid we would be able to make any type of fantasy creature our hearts desired without upsetting the default Elemental storyline by having all these races pre-made.
Hell could even make it possible to design/obtain different races in-game via=
quest: 1. You help out/kill a dragon and obtain it's eggs granting you the ability to use your arcane abilities to transform them into a half dragon\half human species
quest: 2. Your hero discovers some wierd vile & decides that drinkin it is a good idea, turning him into a half frog
spell: You decide to poison the water supply of target city turning all whom drink the water there to turn into undead allowing your blunt weaponed horde to mascre the brittle defenders
building: Totem Of Creation or something, would use mana in the creation of the races and you would possibly have to have prior knowledge of the type of creature you would like to make into a new race by killing/capturing at least one of them first
I know this would prolly be very time consuming & expensive but if we had this & the other generators (quest, spell, faction, minor faction, hero, sov., item, etc.) just think of the possiblities, it would be the first and only fantasy turned based strategic war game that offers the player's' any fantasy world they could imagin, all they have to to is build it (Or download one of the many many many mods that would come from such a venture).
