			==Racial traits==
			Descriptive fields vary by race for sentient races.

			Some may not be discernible to other races, though. Different groups have different secondary/tertiary sex characteristics, for example. Need a group tree/wheel/grid to show how closely related each is. The further away from each other, the harder it is for the different races to recognize traits of each other.

 One idea is to have basic races and have a bunch of sub-races based on location. This presents a problem with humans, so maybe we'll just leave them out. Entirely. (Hey baby, want to kill all humans?) Additionally, only a subset of races are playable. Some of those are "elite" and require a quest or some amount of time in game with a basic character before they can be unlocked.
