| I'm thinking the 5th figure for the Starter will be a Tiefling. The uncontended 4 are; Dwarf Battlemaster, Elf Warlock, Human Sellsword and Large Green Dragon that we know of.
We've been told it's an Exiled Drow or a Yuan-ti something or other, but I just have a feeling it's neither and may end up being the Tiefling. The artwork shows a Drow (potentially), but Lidda had said it was Yuan-ti (probably to balance the encounter, 2 activations vs 3) and she's pretty trustworthy, but wotc just loves the tieflings so much and are pushing them really hard as a PC race I think they may put them in the starter.
What do you think? Yuan-ti, Drow, Tiefling or other? | |

"Â half-drow, half-tiefling with a Dragonborn template?"
Not sure, if you can say that or not.
But don't do it too often, you might develop a stutter.

Don't worry about the current metagame. It doesn't matter if it's ugly, bad, or the best ever. In 2 years time, set rotation will ban everything. | |

| | I was hoping for a drow, but my bets would be on what Lidda said (unless she has new information to share). | |

| | Lidda's been moved from ddm to another department, so she won't say anything new to my knowledge. However, I was thinking, things are/were changing, maybe things got shifted after she got moved. I know the tiefling is unlikely, I would prefer/assume the drow (simply from the artwork). | |

| | I would guess Dragonborn. We just had two Tieflings in the last set. We haven't had a Dragonborn since WotDQ and that's the only one we've had. | |

| | I had been hoping for a Yuan-Ti, but the 2 abysmal ones we got in DoD have made me question that wisdom. I'm still not sure I'm going to buy a starter yet. It's all dependent on whether I like the rules and what the minis inside look like. | |

Hahaha! I'm guessing a Yuan-Ti myself, with all the Zehyr-pushing, but I'd prefer a Drow.

Can I say half-drow, half-tiefling with a Dragonborn template? Yes, you can say it. Now say it 10 times fast 
It'll be a Dwarf with a ridiculously oversized head
