Will it ever been possible to play an Empyrean?

Question Title: Will it ever been possible to play an Empyrean?
Category: Character
Question: Seeing how the Isparians are ridding the world of monsters, would it be possible for Asheron to release *some* Empyreans back onto Dereth from Portal Space? In game terms, Turbine supports the creation of new characters.

If Turbine were to release the Empyreans as a new race, this would encourage rerolling. Empyreans were mostly mages, correct? Thereby they could have Mana Conversion trained from the start, but lack any melee attack skill.

Answer: No, it is not yet time for the Empyrean to return, for backstory and workload reasons.

If the Empyrean did make an appearance, they would ONLY be NPCs. They will NEVER be a potential player race - they're far too powerful.
