Iconic Heroes

Introduced in Update 18 for those who pre-order the Shadowfell Conspiracy expansion, Iconic Heroes are the new form of character creation, sort of like a mix between Veteran Status and new race.
 * They all start in special locations and are given enough XP to level to 15 (1,050,000 XP).
 * They are Race/Class combos with new racial abilities.
 * However, only 1st class level is forced to take in this creation process. So, they can either;
 * take a predefined path,
 * or customize their levels,
 * or reject training to train normally in a public instance (including multiclassing options), to level 15.
 * They receive their own set of starter equipment.

Four Iconic Hero options are planned to be released, the first already available for those who pre-order the expansion.
 * Bladeforged Paladin
 * Sun-elf Morninglord (Cleric)
 * Purple Dragon Knight (Cormyrean Fighter)
 * Shadar-kai Assassin (Rogue from the plane of Shadow)

Reincarnation

 * Not included with the initial release
 * TR is recognized as a top priority
 * LR option will probably come before TR
