I like the idea of more significantly stratified races in a way. That race sounds interesting, and I'd like to see others with big inherent differences. But definitely not classes. As a veteran of various class-based games I think this is the big thing Skyrim got right by me. I enjoyed the immense freedom of choosing a character based on whatever I want (even just appearance), then shaping them to use any fighting style I could conceive of. I made characters using skillsets nothing like I've ever attempted when limited by class and a bunch of arbitrarily defined stats.
