A-EftP - Ssss..... Rrrrrr.....?

[Quazicore]

Something is really ticking me off, im not extremly mad just irked, avernum escape from the pit: NO NEPHIL, NO SLITHERAKI characters,either that or im totally missing something... usually id play through the avernum games with any race other than human (got bored with aldous) so naturally id come to expect the lizards and kitties to be playable races in the saga, isnt it a avernum tradition?

Escape from the Pit is a remake of Avernum 1, which didn't allow non-human characters either. At this point in the series, humans weren't on friendly terms with the nephilim or slithzerikai.

[Randomizer]

The first game in the series is human characters only. In later games you get to play non-humans as the ally with the humans.

I agree with the lack of options in terms of races, perhaps if we could play silth the pole in melee wouldn't be so underpowered

[yarrmateys]

if they could be hired in gnass or other friendly non-human settlements, then sure.

 

otherwise i don't think it'd make sense since your characters are banished from the surface at the start.

 

sliths are native to the caves, and all surface nephils hated humans (those who still survived, and weren't mostly exterminated/banished through the other portal).
