No no no, I'm not adding the outsider type to Frostburn :P

What are the playgrounds favourite Outsider-type monsters/creatures/things?

And also What material is available for caveme related shenanigans, 1st party. 3rd party, homebrew it's all good, I'm just curious is all.

When you say caveman-related shenanigans, do you mean pre-historic type settings? Stone age campaigns?

My favorite outsiders are aasimar and tieflings, I think. The idea of a distant extraplanar ancestor is always interesting, and I think the races themselves are on a nice power level (well, with LA buyoff).

If the cavemen stuff allows for shamans, just play a 20th-level druid. It's not quite tier 0, but hey, you're still a shapeshifting spellcasting engine of doom.

Yeah I do, it's quite late so I may have misworded, but yeah stone-age/pre-stone age/early humanity.

My favorite outsider is the Dust Para-Genasi, from Dragon # 297. (The article there (pages 62-66) has a bunch of additional Planetouched races.) Good stats for a Rogue (+4 DEX, +2 INT, -2 CON, -2 CHA), and it's Breathless (i.e., doesn't breathe and thus is immune to inhaled poisons).

Azer. They're Dwarves. ON FIRE. Fiery Dwarves. Anything more that needs to be said?

They are literally my Reese's Cup.
