I am afraid I\'ve to differ here, one of the things I disliked was precisely that one, specially considering the weird roleplays around the death realm that I\'ve seen happening in-game. I\'m afraid that, if those wars between the death realm and the \"living\" realm are, somewhat, supported within the setting, those weird things I\'ve seen would turn out to be pretty insignificant things, unless a depth and detailed explanation about the death realm, it\'s setting and purpose etc are clearly stated for roleplayers to follow. Anyway, since I think we\'re really far from having a DR that we can consider a \"parallel world\" I don\'t think that those wars will be added to the setting anytime soon, so things can be explained calmly to the whole community.
And also:
I personally love the Kran, simlar to half-giants completely made of stone, intelligent enough to cast spells and with interests in all forms of nature.
o.O?
Krans do start with penalizations on magic, I think, and a report comes to mind about a player that wasn\'t able to cast spells, precisely because had a kran char, that had not the amount of mana as to cast the spell once. Obviously everything can be trained, but I think that, what adds to variety and realism to the races, are its particular caracteristics. While there can be a kran that may be good at magic, I don\'t think it is a general trait to the kran race, and for the sake of diversity, it is fine that way.
