       Well....the dragonewts were always supposed to be exceedingly alien non-player characters unless they "fell off the Dragon path" and lost their immortality. An immortal, alien, bizarre dragonewt is an exceedingly unbalancing and irritating character. Dwarves and dragonewts who have fallen or rejected their normal lifestyles make perfectly fine PCs.

        I do agree on the whole 'hive mind" business with elves; it is not necessary for MGF, and I've seen no real justification for it beyond making Glorantha more commplicated and alien.
