Rank Your Options!
I'm procrastinating other projects right now so I thought it would be fun to rank my options in Starmourn, rather than just a poll (that doesn't even give enough options for race anyway.) So how would you rank your choice of civilizations, classes, and races right now?
Here are the options for easy reference:
Civilizations
Celestine Ascendancy
Scatterhome
Song Dominion
Classes
B.E.A.S.T
Engineer
Fury
Nanoseer
Scoundrel
Races
Amaians
Decheerans
Elgan
Humans
Jin
Krona
Nath-el
Nusriza
Ry'nari
Shen
Tukkav
W'hoorn

I really think it will be interesting to see how this changes by the time the game launches and I'm actually in character creation, given that new information will be released between now and then.

1. Scoundrel (flavor is perfect for the character I'm imagining playing. If I hate how it actually plays I'll try something else though)

2. Damn it, Pollivar, you got here first. It's human all the way down.

I recently took another look at the races description and I fell in love with the Amaian architecture. Elgan still feel like my go-to race when I will create my first character but Amaian is getting closer. As for Human, it'd probably be my pick if I ever made an Engineer and he would be based in Scatterhome for sure. I feel no appeal towards the other races I left out.
The aesthetics of Amaians do not appeal to me at all but the rest of their culture does. And it's funny because it's a text-game. I can set a description and go and not really have to think about what my character looks like. But I still will. Definitely think I'll try one out somewhere down the line.

My number one for each has stayed pretty consistent. The Tukkav race has spoken to me from the beginning. I really like nomadic cultures and cultures that can survive in harsh climates so they were the obvious choice.

I was pretty torn between scoundrel and beast until fury came out...stabby stabby all day long.
Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength, I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken.
The Force shall set me free.

Almost dead yesterday, maybe dead tomorrow, but alive, gloriously alive, today.

I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

Civilizations
Celestine Ascendancy (This is the only one that feels like a real city to me.)
Scatterhome
Song Dominion (Not really in the running. Living in a floating greenhouse just doesn't appeal to me.
Classes
Nanoseer (Pretty sure I'm going to go for one of the Kith classes and nanoseer seems more scholarly and less aggressive.)
Fury
Engineer (Somewhat tempted to play an engineer just so I can have a robot army.)
B.E.A.S.T.
Scoundrel
Races
Tukkav (Really like their culture and I definitely want to play a nonhuman race.)
Shen (Their connection to kith and the Elder Races would be intriguing to explore.)
Ry'nari (Spaces dinos are awesome.)
Nath-el (Not a fan of the hive mind thing.)
Krona (Not planning to play a boisterous character. Also, they just seem oddly shaped.)
Nusriza (Not a fan of the throng dynamic.)
Jin (Not interested in combat or their cultural connection to death.)
Amaian (Played a grook for years on Achaea, so not wanting to play another watery race.)
Elgan (Too small.)
W'hoorn (Eh, never been crazy about cat people.)
Decheeran (Or tree people.)
Human (Just too boring.)
