The new race?

[Shioban]

Already a few threads up for this pretty much debating what the possibilities are (and future possibilities).

There are other threads up as well besides the ones i've linked from the front-page detailing the exact same thing.
Always check the search function, or at least the first few topic pages, as for high profile updates there's usually 2-3 threads up 5 minutes after the news is posted.
