I'm not sure what I think of that...Seems like this defeats the purpose of having different races with different advantages...? I know it's problematic to translate a thing like that (in particular IQ and behavioral traits) to different human races, but... I mean, it seems the different D&D races are practically different species? Dwarf vs. Paladin (human?) vs. Halfling vs... I forget what else. I wanted to be a wizard but apparently that wasn't an option. So I went with druid, and my friend made some snide comment about how that was a girly thing to choose. wtf dude, I want to be king of the wolves and have a bear come maul your ass, then I'll chill by a camp fire with my furry friends and eat your flesh, you fuck-off
