Shadowmers.
I don't know if this has been done, but I'll give a description of the image that just popped into my head.
A race of people who have merged with shadow. They would have the bone and muscle structure of an ordinary human, but they would appear as a smokey shadow. Their skin would whisp and smoke, and move constantly. It would be pure black, and their eyes would be totally white. They would have a higher limit of pain than 'normal' people, because of their inconsistency. They would mostly consist of thieves, assassins and an odd magician, because they could blend into shadow, with the exeption of their eyes, who would remain white.
meh, sounds kind of cheezy.

I have actually made up a fantasy universe that contains (to give an example of the more exotic ones):
Arachnids. Human sized sentient spider-esque beings. Walks on four legs.
Orcs. With a Viking-esque culture.
Aras. Parrot-people.
Kudu. Minotaurs, but with antelophy heads.
Mermen. Self-explainatory.

Furcadia. Nuff said.Boxes_Of_Boxes said:
Birdmen. My friend's got an entire storyline based around them, and already figured out a heirarchy and religion for them. they will be led by the bird-emperor Manuron...
So if they wanted to be totally invisible, they'd just have to close their eyes? of course, there'd be the tactical trade-off of being temporarily blind.Samuel_of_Saruan said:
So far, there's little or nothing here from what I've read that hasn't been in a Dungeons & Dragons Moster Manual at one time or another =p
OT though, I'd love to play a Minotaur or Cyclops in a RPG. Or a Treant. Yeah. Big-Ass Tree-Man of DOOM. Fear the splinters.

hah this thread reminds me of morrowind with their subtle racism with the readgaurd (black people) and their racial ability was to run fast

Guild Wars 2 (eventually) will have the Norn, who are celtic/viking/norse (something) people who can transform into bears. They're also bringing in "Sylvari" which are plant people (not original) and they already have the Charr, lioney tigerey bearey people that like fire.Ken_J said:

Neverwinter Nights lets you play as an Aasmir (Half-celestial (angel)) or a Tiefling (half-demon). Though, that is a Dungeons and Dragons based game, so hey...
trashrobots, goblins(has probably been done), giant rats, really really fat...things like in the movie "spirited away", treepeople, insects, black ghost things wearing giant white scary masks, heads with long legs growing out of it and a crazy smile, bluesdogs, lolcats, something on wheels, upside down people, gangsta rabbits.(i could go on like this for hours)

WoW failed when it didn't had Pandas as a playable race. Anyone who played Warcraft 3: Fronzen Throne know what I'm talking about.
Hmmm... I don't have any more ideas for races, but I do have an awesome idea for a creature.
What about a creature that looks and acts like a baby Seal. The fluffy ones. However, whenever they are killed, and their fur is taken away from their corpse, the carcass instantly turns into a beast that is part wolf, part sea lion..
...kinda would look like this:
Then it seeks out other creatures of it's kind, and eventually raid the settlements of the hunters that killed them..

What about a race of intelligent zombies?
A race of guinea pig cyborgs?
A boobie people (courtesy of zero punctuation)
Being serious for a split second... uh, still with the intelligent zombies... though that's already been done in Sonny 1 and 2. Going for something original...
Incredibly cute, harmless looking furballs (literally furballs, they're like those things in Munches oddyssey.) which are actually vicious killing machines which can make massive leaps and chew their way through a victims leg in one bite. Special moves include them jumping up to face height and being able to bite through armour!
Those might be a bit overpowered though. I know, its hard to believe I'm being serious but cute but devastating furball critters would actually be incredibly cool in my opinion.
