Well, the devs have gone on record saying they are not planning to ever add new races to the game.

While that is true, I personally would not mind a non-hero race or two to be added.

Basically, a character you create that can level up to cap, but it has no classes and extremely limited glamour. They would have all locations unlocked, and be able to engage content in the field and level up.

Basically something like Bluemage that is mostly self contained, minus dungeons and story, but can go anywhere. Maybe give them a skill set similar to paladin or red age (dps base with self healing).

Think... tourist?

The point being I could have a friends who are not really interested in playing the full on game, but might want to just hang out and do mahjong or sightseeing or treasure hunts for a short bit.
