Werecats are certainly possible! We'll write this up to be implimented ASAP. Perhaps we could use wolves for something... And Witches for shades... Well there would have to be some type of way to detect Shades, because if you got in a fight with one it should be almost certain death. Also they would have to be fairly rare, witches are rare already, but they would have to be extra rare. But I really like the idea of Werecats to! Remember that with the 1.8 update it added rabbits, not sure what they could be used for though... I'd leave the rabbits; they are small game that could be hunted and eaten. Wolves could become Shrrg or something and live in the Beor Mountains. Although a modified horse would probably be better. And I like witch shades, yes you would be able to tell because they would have the shade texture, maroon hair and eyes and pale white skin. They would have superstrength, superspeed, lots of hunger, throw potions (magic) and be able to control other beings and make them attack you. I'd hope these would be rare! Definitely not something I'd want to encounter...

Good, I feel like I'm keeping up to date on all these developments! That'll work, but Urgal clan chiefs should be able to control these "wild" urgals as well, since even wandering tribes of urgals respect the chiefs. Just realized I said "pig zombies" instead of zombie pigmen. :/ That could be an advantage of choosing the Urgal race. If you make it far enough into the game, you might become a chief and could command an urgal army. Yep! Now just for some advantage humans could have... :/

are endermen going to be Ra'zac? I would think that Enderman would be the model for Kull, seeing as they are about two feet taller than most other creatures in the book. Endermen don't have the right shape for either creature, they are tall but very skinny. The Ra'zac were completely wiped out after Eragon, Arya and Angela killed the eggs in Dras-Leona. However, there could be two types of witches, one being a shade and the other a Ra'zac...

Well in the thread about the time period its set in, I believe we concluded that we would be taking the best of all the time periods, I know the best doesn't included raz'zac but I believe they should be included because they played such a large role in the books.

Yeah, maybe witches can be the Ra'zac (however there won't be any Lethrblaka) and zombie villagers or some other random mob could be made into a shade. IMO shades would be cooler to fight than Ra'zac, and make more sense since shades can be created anywhere, anytime, so if I had to choose I would say that we should include shades instead of Ra'zac, but maybe both can be done.

Definitely not something I'd want to encounter... as with rabbits we should just leave wolves as they are to roam in the spine and du weldenvarden. they are way too small to be shrrg. and we need horses, but witches should definitely be shades. To make then really rare all we need is to make it so that they dont despawn, and they when a villager is hit by lightning, voila! we have a shade!

Now just for some advantage humans could have... :/ easy. better trades with villagers. now i dont know about anyone else but im more likely to trade with a human than a kull.

Well, actually they weren't wiped out. the priest said that there were more and galbatorix wouldnt want his pet slaves to become extinct... and eragon didnt go back for the eggs that as i said COULD be there so i assume that there are still maybe one or two in alagaesia.

I guess you are right about the wolves, but maybe skeleton horses can be modified to be Shrrg while leaving the rest to be normal horses. I don't know if shades should be able to be created accidentally... It would probably be more balanced to make it a spell in which 3 or 4 people need to participate and where it creates a shade but kills them all. This might seem easier than the lightning striking villagers, but lightning striking entities is a lot more common than you would think for a server that has such a large map, so many entities, and is running 24/7. There could be a new shade created every week in this way! A suicidal spell would probably be a better bet.

I guess it was never really specified. I interpreted the part as "you killed the Ra'zac, but galbatorix gave us eggs just in case *sly smile* enjoy being eaten alive *brings in last remaining Ra'zac eggs* *Angela kills them with tinkledeath* *no more ra'zac*". But it isn't explicitly stated. Nevertheless I support adding the ra'zac.

That's a great idea! Will write that up to be looked in to. It could be done very simply too, if all we changed was the price. if the player interacting with the villager is from the human race price of villager trade is reduced by 10-30% else (The player is not a human) price is normal

From recent experiences, pack AI can be a bit laggy, but I'm sure we can get it working in a future release. Shades, Ra'zac and other difficult hostile mobs will be rare. You probably won't encounter them in a typical lifetime, but after a few hours of gameplay you're sure to have seen, or been killed by, at least a couple. There should always be at least one (or more) Shades and Ra'zac on the map. When one dies, another will be spawned in a random location.
