Don't you think its about time this was corrected? Elves should have had Sorceror as their favoured class given how attuned they are to magic (as per D&D the movie 1 or Tom Baker plays the tallest elf outside of Tolkien), but that would lead to how they stuffed up the sorceror which could have been perfectly fine had they not decided allowing it to have a d6 hd and 3 charisma based skills would have made the Wizard look hopeless...Sorry getting  little off track but I am interested to see what you think and object...</blockquote>
