Thought I'd put this here for people to discuss the new stuff. I personally like what I see so far. I do think the Gem Dragonborn should have been in the Dragonborn listing. I also think the stat buffs from backgrounds is an interesting feature. I do think that some backgrounds should allow you to choose between two feats... example urchin allowing you to choose between lucky or skulker. Something I think should happen though is to have the Sorcerer's casting ability be Constitution.
