This game seems to be missing one rpg cornerstone. Character customization. We need races(dwarves, elves, orcs, humans, etc) with unique skill sets and stat bonuses. Also classes would be nice. Atleast the basic 3 (warrior, mage, rogue). I dont code so i have no idea how hard this is to add but would take a great game above and beyond.

Perhaps I can do something similar to Ultima.  You are always the Avatar, but you can pick certain professions to start out as which confer certain benefits.  Also, in Arcanum, the player can pick certain traits that effect their character at creation.

Perhaps I can add in traits like "Magic Adept", "Faithful", "Acrobatic", "Thick Skinned", "Bulky", "Silent", or "Jack of All Trades" to name a few.  These could give the player certain benefits and disadvantages and perhaps confer some special abilities.

I actually like the fact that the system is classless: you can build any kind of character you want by selecting the appropriate abilities and skills.

I could see having races, but what would they mean in game terms? +x to this ability, -x to that one? Just set your abilities the way you want them. If anything, I think that the way to manifest races would be to just add more character portraits.

I like the idea of traits. If you want to think of your character as being a particular race/class, then just pick a trait and portrait that seem appropriate when you create the character, and then choose appropriate abilities and skills as you level-up.

I can see wanting it classless. But I think races might be cool. The usuals like dwarves getting a + to starting constitution, elves to dex, etc
