-Cut a few. You have almost as many as we have players. That's a lot. You're 
close to just giving each player eir own stats, no races needed.-

-Change? That should cost something. We're not talking about changing pants 
here. This is your genetic makeup. I suggest a nice Gnome to act as a

-I think if you keep it to those three, maybe add a fourth, attributes, it's 
fine. Past that, it's too complex, too fast. You've got a good base idea. 
Now, will it go places, or will it sit and linger, because no one has any 
ideas to follow it up with?-
