Mechanically, Kalashtar are a separate race. But are there any Kalashtar that are not human? Like elves or gnomes that have that quori connection unique to the Kalashtar? By canon lore the Kalashtar progenitors were all human and the bond doesn’t pass to offspring of other races. You could create a “new” kalashtar tied to another race, but you’d have to figure out balance; what do you remove to balance racial features such as darkvision?
