ok so we are reading things about the same way... I was thinking after they had finished these adjustments, then it should be ready for beta and not re alpha the thing...

Folks who want to know scheduling information should perhaps check the "Schedule" link on the www.dresdenfilesrpg.com site. :)

Those of you who haven't looked at the site recently, there's a new entry up on the blog today, about changelings.

I like that. I especially like how the Choice is handled. I can see that having a really big impact on how the story unfolds. I imagine that many of the gains of Stunts -- and the corresponding loss of Refresh -- will come at stressful moments, probably opening characters up to yummy compels against Fae type Aspects. Tight, that.

It also looks like we have three tiers for supernatural physical umph. Also good to know.

Thanks Fred.

Would a lycanthrope, be a playable race?

Not sure how a lycanthrope would fall under "Free Will".  They have souls.  There not totally mad like Hexenwolf right?  The lycanthrope Parker, from Fool Moon, was as self-disciplined and determined as anyone.

And if they are playable, would they be able to use any magic?

Absolutely playable. Able to use magic? Sure, if you can afford doing that AND your lycanthropy without going overbudget.

Emissaries of Power went up yesterday. It's pretty open, sort of a catch all for lots of possible weirdness. Looks to be a good way to personalize your Dresdenverse. Want lots of demon funkiness? Emissaries of demons princes sound like a good way to go.

Focused Practitioners are next. Hopefully we'll get to see what sorts of Stunts might be available for human magic users.

I just realized something. The sneak peeks for character types is going in the same order as this list. Looks like we have a long time to wait for wizards.  :'(
