These are just the guidelines to making a race. Of course its not just
self-created ones they could very well be cannon races for people to get a
better idea but in that case they would have to be open for everyone to use
to be fair.
1. When making a race, try to keep a balance of what you're doing. It's
understandable how you might want to make a race stronger, faster and
more attractive then humans, because they're the base race. However, they
can't be good at everything. Every race needs it limitations for balance.
After all, if they're already too strong there's no room to grow.
