What I would do:Dwarves: Remove the Charisma penalty, the bonus to hit goblinoids and orcs, and the weapon familiarity.Add a -2 penalty to Dex, and a +2 bonus on Open Locks and Disable Device rolls.Humans: Leave as-is.Elves: Replace the automatic proficiencies with Weapon Familiarity - elves consider those bows and swords to be Simple not Martial weapons.Gnomes: Remove the Str penalty, replace with a -2 Wis penalty.Halflings: Remove the Dex bonus and the Str penalty.Half-elves: Not sure. They need some sort of boost. I would probably give them either a bonus feat or the weapon familiarity of elves.Half-orcs: Again, they need some sort of boost, but I'm not sure quite what. Lesser scent seems a good idea. Maybe a +2 bonus on Intimidate checks, and a +2 racial bonus on Fortitude saves against poison and disease.</blockquote>
