I noticed that the dev website mentioned that they will be releasing more information about the Races soon.  What do we know already?  Do they mean the races we can play?   I saw a list of them in the Q & A section of the web site:

1) Humans

2) Verduren

3) Gargoyles

4) Waerians

5) Tyven

6) Jenemos

The Lore talks about them some on the dev web site.   The Waerians sound like a water people of some kind.  Does that mean there will be underwater cities?  Adventures?  Quests?  I wonder when they will release info on the first race and which one?  Anyone heard a rumor?  Or will Jatar give us a hint (if I ask nicely)?

If you read the lore you can find everything about them(well maybe not everything),they're prety much all sub races of humans(it has been said that you start human and you can then change).

They've all got their own crazyness,I think it was the Tyven who didn't understand the meaning of possessing something but don't take my word on that.

Well, since you asked nicely     (And we were just about to release information on the first race anyway), you can find information on the Verduren race on the www.citadelofsorcery.com web site.   Look for the Races tab at the top of the About CoS  page.   We will continue to release information on each of the six playable races in Citadel of Sorcery over the next few months.  If you have any questions about the Verduren after reading, let us know and we'll see if I can answer them for you.

I read about the Verdurens on the web site.  So, a matriarchal society, I like it!  From the last paragraph I assume this means that players will be one of the Verduren Sumar?  Warriors without a clan.   I like the camouflage skin of the Verdurens.   What is that like?  Does it change somehow to make them blend in?  I mean, will we see it change in the game?  How does one become a Verduren?  So many questions...

Thought the article inferred that tribes had their own capabilities and these could be learned/earnedin some way. So there could be some nice variations on the camoflage and nature type abilities to be gained from gaining favor with tribes of Verdurens...

I guess... can't wait for this to come out..

I like that... if I'm a Verduren and I do a favor for another tribe then I learn their form of camouflage.     On a different note, they talk about aromas and smells being something special with Verdurens.  I wonder how this will be represented in the game?  Certainly not 'smellaround'., you know, those smell machines, or some guy standing behind you squirting aromas, or scratch and sniff :)  

I do like it when games make better use of sound, more than just music or sound effects.  Like when you can hear footsteps sneaking up on you from the right in the dark.  Or you hear something grunting on the other side of a door and that tells you that there are some kind of monster you recognize from the sound and he's waiting to attack.   I hope CoS makes use of sound... and smell, if that is possible.

The 'November' update mentioned the release of details on another race next week.  I wonder which one?  Does anyone have a preference on which they'd like to read about?   I'm curious about the Waerians and the Jenemos, but I suppose information on all of them will eventually be released.

Oh, and happy Turkey Day.
