(fast move negates dwarf slowness)  I also hope they give half-orcs weapon familiarity with the orc double axe, because I recently had a player make a half orc, and after I read the racial benifits to him to copy down, he was like "and?"  and I was out of bonuses.  Darkvision just isn't enough for a core race. (especially one that has an overall negative stat modifier).  And orc blood? thats a penalty.. orc bane weapons anyone?  know of any other items that require orc blood? besides bad ones?  I'd also like to see a small boost for half-elves, never seen one played, other than RP reasons, or because I houseruled them an extra feat.  Although one thing I must say, I do enjoy how in 3e humans are one of the best races (if not the best).  They sucked in 2e.Eldorian Antar</blockquote>
