Why don't they use nagas as the new race? They look cool and their two classes can be Shadow and Necromancer. Shadow can be a magical assassin and the Necromancer can use dark magic. Srry if my idea is bad I just started this game
And what happens when you equip a pair of pants? Or boots? How do you keep your Belt from just sliding off you? lol. Wearable items use "bones" to define their positions and boundaries. If your lower body were a scale covered tentacle, and your gear was visible, it'd be a jumbled mess. Unless they overhaul all the lower body & foot armor. Not sure they could make that work, even if they wanted to! In any case, it'd be a Blender nightmare. :p
Your idea isn't "bad". Just maybe a
little impractical. Don't get me wrong, snake people are cool looking, in their own way. Used to call them "Yan-ti" in AD&D: Darksun.
I think they should just grab whichever (non Human-look-a-like) race that has a "skeleton" closest to that of the current playable races, and make that available as a playable race. Probably some consideration payed to which race already includes both sexes, and which have the most flushed out (already existing) animations, too. That'd probably end up being the Capra. The less work and hassle involved, the more likely RW is to grant our request.
