Lucretia's name in H5 game files is Tamika
Still, wouldn't Tamika look like just another black-skinned vampire from H6...? We've had way too many of those...
That being said... increasing the production of grim riders would be so OP.

Sligneris said: I mean, when a character of old reappears, we just have yet to wonder what role exactly is he going to play in the story of Ashan. Should we expect Gavin Magnus? Or will Ashan's Solmyr serve an archmage with a different name? Or even serve no wizard at all?I just wonder what to expect out of him.
Since he will be a gift in the Collectors/ DigiDeluxe Edition, assuming it is indeed Solmyr, all we should expect is an exceptionally marginal role.
After all, only the people who shell out for it will get to experience it. I expect it to be comparable to the extra scenario's you get in for example Assassin's Creed. They extend the gameplay, they tell nice things, but all in all these collectors scenarios influence the story in such a way that you might see a reference in the story everybody gets, but only those who played it understand.

Well, since they are actually putting some effort in making the legacy heroes look like their originals this time around we can at least expect her to have pointy ears and fangs (if not, i will go berserk). she's pretty much "Tyris as a vampire" with similar adorable helmet and ability.

"Nope, I can't" or "Nope, I won't"? Or is it rather a "Nope, and don't bother me anymore"?
Erwan (deep in taught, mumbling to himself): "Hmmm should we charge 150 ... nah 120 will be enough, I think, the Chinesee toy manufacturers did say they'll drop the price for figurines ... There's also the case with music ... awhy did I listen to thhose fools and include both ...
Employee 1: "Sir, there's some stuff I would like to discuss ...
Erwan: "Fool! Can't you see I'm thinking? That's the important stuff you know ... oh it's you ... didn't I fire you?"
Employee 1: "Umm no sir ..."
Erwan: "Ah, I'll have to remember to do this next week ... anyway what's so urget for you to disturb me."
Employee 1: "Ri...Right. You see, there's a matter of the VIP's, I'm sure you remember, we haven't realy..."
Erwan (panicked): "What?! How? Did my wife snooped around my office? I didn't even pay those women, And that Asian wasn't underage ... they just look younger!"
Employee 1 (shocked and confused): "Ummm sir, I am talking about fan VIP's ... for the game. We invited them from fansites to share early information with?"
Erwan (relived): "Huh oh, those ... yea, hehe, I taught you mean ... you know ... anyway what about them?"
Employee 1: "Well, back then you said we should invite them, so it would look like we are actualy listening to the fans."
Erwan: "I remember, so? What about them? Didn't they got enough? You did promise them free copy of the game if they would just stand still and shut up, like I told you to do?"
Employee 1: "Yes. But it's not about their demands. Actualy, that part worked quite well ..."
Erwan: "Ofcourse it did! I taught of it afterall. And to think you oposed me back then ... you see now? This is why I am Creative Director and you are just a lackey."
Erwan: "So? what about it, I haven't got all day. We directors must think, you know?"
Employee 1: "Well recently, we were monitoring the forums, and it looks like some members of the comunity suspect something, and are pressuring the VIP's about it. They say it sounds suspicious, they as VIP didn't contribute much."
Erwan: "And? You didn't actualy share much information with them did you?" ... "In any case, just tell them to not say anything relevant. They can tell other comunity members they can't do anything at this point ... which is not far from truth actualy."
Erwan: "Like I would listen to the fans complaints ... phew. That sounds ridiculous. I said that in the interview with fans directly."
Employee 1: "You did sir! That was hilarious..."
Erwan: "Wasn't it? Hehehe, that's right, that's how to treat the buggers. I even put on my best troll face."
Employee 1: "I still wonder if it was the right thing to do ... I mean they ARE your fans?"
Erwan: "My fans? You cannot be a fan of someone you don't like. It's called logic. They may be Heroes of Might and Magic fans, but they are not important anyway. Who ARE important are MY fans. And MY fans love me always."
Erwan: "So do not worry about the VIP's. I know how to select people, who agree with me. It will sort itself out. If not, they can always remind the comunity, that we changed their Lich and Vampire."
Erwan: "Now make yourself usefull, and get me a coffee. And if it's good, I may not fire you afterall. God forbid, I may need to find a new person who knows, how to prepare a good coffee."
Employee 1: "Right sir, at once! And thank you sir. I will make sure this is the best coffee you ever had ... SIR!"
Erwan (to himself, proudly): "And THAT is how you handle a business."

Well, unlike other people, I'm not under NDA or whatever so what I can tell is, be it Erwan or Ubisoft, all are afraid of the sales, and my understanding about it is they keep making wrong decisions, for whatever the reasons.

Well... personally, I don't care that much, but...
Vampires don't have exposed fangs, but those do show when they open their mouths - so she could simply be portrayed showing her teeth. When it comes to pointy ears, she could formerly be a dark elf, or a sea elf even... although I'm not sure if black-skinned elves exist in Ashan?
She'll definitely have green eyes though, there's no way around it.

To spice the topic up a bit :-P.
There have appeared few other pre-order options.
Standard game costs around 40-45€, and some people reported that they have been given beta keys.
Edit:
And the approximated date is listed as September

Isn't that about the same as the price for preordering H6 was? It seems pretty normal to me.

Beta keys when the game's in alpha? I find it hard to believe.
Hey. I'm just spreading what appared on our web. Even the SE pre-order says
Quote: Předobjednejte si hru včas a získejte přístup do uzavřené betaverze! Těšit se můžete i na bonusové předměty do plné hry. Do jednoho dne od předobjednávky obdržíte na email beta klíč a ihned po spuštění bety budete moci začít hrát.
Trans:
Pre-ordering the game you will gain access to closed beta! Also you can look forward to bonus in-game items for the full game. In one day after your pre-order you will receive an email with a beta key which you can use and play the game as soon the beta will begin.

On polish pre-order websites September was listed as approximate date for a long time now, on one of them there is even more precise date - 30/09/2015

It feels too early to have the game on pre-order at this stage. I'm not an expert on marketing but I just find it a bit odd. Besides, why doesn't Steam say anything? My guess is that it's just sites advertising it earlier to make an extra buck. Like this one that says it costs 90$ and the release is in June.
