ABOUT RACES
     Races, like guilds, exist to add depth to Nanvaent and allow you to
     have variety in your character.

     That said, some races are better for some guilds than others. For
     example, while it is perfectly possible to be a giant wizard, it's not
     the best combination.

     There are over 30 races you can become, though there are many other
     races in Nanvaent for you to interact with.

     Here is a handy race selection widget. Be warned that this list
     changes frequently, so use the race change machine in the Nanvaent
     Village to get the most up to date information. Also note that this
     table doesn't give other vital information, such as the banshee "wail"
     command, or the fact that the sun hurts trolls.

     Always check with other members of the guild you want to be in before
     choosing your race.
