The most respectful and polite poster ever
I will add that unlike Twosix, I don't view this as warring camps that will only allow for one victor. I think it would be easy enough to make the default of having the ASIs tied to race, and a paragraph (like the variant human) that says, "By the way, you can untie ASIs from races and have a floating bonus of X."
Because I like people to be happy. Except people that play bards. They deserve no happiness.
This seems to be the simplest and best solution. Vocal permission via a 1 line sentence in the game to play with floating racial ASI's.
