[QUOTE="Bill Zebub, post: 8381969, member: 7031982"] And I've said several times now, it's really about what the other options are. I don't have any particular desire to roleplay one race over another; rather I build my characters for their collection of abilities, and then I figure out their personality. If the mechanics leads me to end up with a halfling or a goliath or a tortle, then I'll start to think about how their personality and decision making are influenced by their race and background. So when I'm making a character, with no desire for a particular race, I look at what the package of abilities looks like. And it's not that the additional +1 is just the greatest thing imaginable and is absolutely necessary, it's just that there's no other package that I find as attractive. And, again, that's largely because of vHumans: racial abilities are rarely as interesting to me as feats. [/QUOTE]
