It wasn't meant as any kind of indictment to the race, I was just trying add fuel for thought. Whenever I attempt to design a new race I try and go through each of the classes in the PHB and ask myself what would a (insert race name here) bard be like? How would they be viewed by thier peers? I do that for each class, I don't write it down and set it stone I just use it as a guide. Sometimes I get an answer of "Well that doesn't seem to work." If I get it for a bunch of classes then I consider it a problem. If it's just that a race seems to have no connection with a paladin type character I say fine. But I pay particular attention to my own answers to questions like "How would an (race 1) fighter be culturally different from a (race2) fighter? How would they act different? How would they look different? WHat makes them more than a sheet with different abilities? I know in the end all individuals are different, but for generation of a new race I try and stick to stereotypes, I leave the outsiders to my players. BTW, the playing with thier food comment was supposed to be a joke? Apparently I'm not that funny in the written word...Haussenfeffer Hasslehoff!!! :\</blockquote>
