If the races from Tian Xia are not going to be in then we might be getting some new races.
Changeling
Duegar
Gillmen
Gripli
K???
Merfolk
N???
S???
Strix
Suli
Sverfneblin
Vanara
Vishkanya
W???
It's also quite possible that I A) heard wrong or B) whomever mentioned it only said "no" because Paizo wasn't ready to announce it yet.
Gillmen are unlikely, I think, as they are Golarion-specific and the book is in the RPG line.
A LOT of monsters start out as being in the Golarion line and get moved into the Core line. A good percentage of Bestiaries 2 and 3 fit the criteria.

And before anyone else can say it, I don't know why I said the Elemental races came from Legacy of Fire. With a quick look through I didn't see them, though for some reason I thought that that is where they originated. My bad.
The 'elemental' races were called Suli I believe and I am pretty sure they are from LoF book 1 or 2.

Nope, the Suli is a completely different race from the Quadira Player Companion book.

The "Suli" Jann were from the Player's Companion to Qadira.
No additional player races were given in the Legacy of Fire AP.
The Ifrit, Oread, Slyph, and Undine (to the best of my knowledge) 1st appeared in Bestiary 2.
Oh, and with the "suli" jann... in their write-up they are given the option of having an energy type of their choice "sheath" their arms (or held melee weapons I believe). That might be the "elemental" race portion you are thinking about Dennis.

Personally, I just hope that they do a better job with Chapter 4 than they did in the playtest, they need far more options and far fewer restrictions. It was very obvious that they were just going through the existing races and pricing the abilities, rather than considering what NEW races people might want to price out, such as diminutive races, serpentine races, etc. How did they ever miss those as options in the first pass?
I really hope Chapter 4 is heavily revised and expanded.
I need options for four-armed Standard races that don't overpower them, body-type support for Cecaelia-like races that push into Advanced Races at most, and serpentine races if I'm going to make my primary homebrew races at all.
Stuff like hooves pushing races into the Monstrous tier and all of those pre-requisites that aren't relevant to homebrew made me nervous too, but there has been a lot of talk about how much rethinking was going into this.
I'm pretty sure that C is for Changelings, which makes me sad for the Centaurs. I'm still holding out hope that W is for Wemics.I'm pretty sure C is Cookie, which is good enough for me.
You win this thread!
Cenobytes
Decepticon
Gestalt
Great Old One
Kali
Mutant
Ninja (they're everywhere)
Saiyajin
Starfell
Stuntman
Superhero
Vampire, Nosgoth
Vampire, Twilight
Wasabi
Maybe WOTC lost some rights to Dragonlance and we now get Kenders...(doubtful but we can dream)
As soon as someone invents Pixie Sticks that have an extra effect on the Gnomes, Kenders would be obsolete.

Ding, ding, ding. We have a winner. Well done, Sgmendez. That was quick...even quicker considering that you posted this last week. ;)

The Djinni, Efreeti, Janni, Marid, and Shaitan Genies all use artwork from LoF. That might be what you're thinking of.

Nuuu! Now I have to buy this book! My poor wallet...
Strix!
Gotta love 'em.
Changling, Gripli, Kitsune, Merfolk, and Vanara are the ones I am most exited about.
Too a lesser extent I am also interested in the Nagaji, Samsarans, Strix, and Wayang
Svirfneblim are just too powerful to me and Duegar have too many immunities.
One of the V's might be for Vegetables, since that's what the Cookie Monster eats now, ya know. :/I'm pretty sure that C is for Changelings, which makes me sad for the Centaurs. I'm still holding out hope that W is for Wemics.I'm pretty sure C is Cookie, which is good enough for me.
Blasphemy.

yah for these fellows
Will there be additional foxy feats for the kitsune. I am currently playing a kitsune fire wujen/monk in the Jade Regent and would love to make him more foxy.
