I'm interested strictly in the mechanical concerns. I do have information on the races outside of their numbers, but I didn't feel it mattered here. Regarding lack of favored classes, I haven't made up my mind about whether or not I like the whole mechanic of favored classes, however to stick to some "sacred cows" I probably should limit the favored classes at the outset and then use them or not use them when it comes down to actually using the races.evolved: I may take out the stat bonus and penalty altogether for Race #1. Race #2 I gave a penalty to Intelligence because they are not learned in general, but are crafty and are good at witchcraft and sorcery, I didn't want those areas to be penalized by a general lack of "book-knowledge." I will probably limit the Crafts however, because you're right about it effectively giving a bonus to a nigh unlimited amount of skills. I'm not sure exactly how the run ability would stack with the run feat, but I was trying to give them some extra speed without increasing their base movement. That's a very good area to look at.</blockquote>
