I think the Kodan would make a great playable race, maybe add a new class to go with it. I was thinking something like ‘Chi Master’ to go with their spiritual culture etc.
Could be a medium (or maybe light) armour hand-to-hand combat specialist with some chi energy attacks worked in, and a focus on buffs/conditions. Similar to a monk/pugilist style profession without at the same time being a healing class, which Arenanet have clearly stated they won’t do.
What does everybody think?
