Gamespot has written a preview of DAoC: Shrouded Isles. Here's a bit for you:
The expansion will add a new playable race to each of the realms, bringing the total number of player races to 15. In addition to Albion's Britons, highlanders, Saracens, and Avalonians, Shrouded Isles will let players who align themselves with Albion play as iconnu, a diminutive race of albino humanoids that hail from the underworld, and are proficient with magic. Midgard's population of Norse, trolls, dwarves, and kobolds will by augmented by the valkyns, a race of feral savages who have appeared in the realm in order to the help the trolls and their brethren. Finally, Hibernia's Celts, firbolg, lurikeen, and elves will be joined by the sylvans, a new race of creatures that are rumored to be spirits of nature incarnate. |
