I haven't been folowing this entire thread but I made some comments on the
classes (specifically caster classes) that may be relevant to the

But one thing I was thinking about is what are appropriate races, from a
game view standpoint, to make available.
For example, dwarves, elves, humans, half orcs, dragons, trolls, gnomes,
northmen, and wraiths are all fairly common creatures in the world that the
player will meet/fighter
