Add racial bonuses to the helpfile, please?

[Trillarel]

I believe that adding racial bonuses (+/- to abilities, any additional abilities such as darkvision) to the helpfile would help many newbies. For example, I'd forgotten that elves get low-light vision and not darkvision.

BTW do elves in FK get proficiency in longswords like in D&D 3.5?

That is a relatively new development, and a good suggestion. Now that we can see stats, it makes sense to spell out those modifiers, as well.

Anyone keen to take this on? Otherwise I'll work on it as time permits.

Does it make sense to put this information into the base race helpfile (e.g. in elves, when it applies to all elves)?

Non-drow elves start with novice proficiency in longswords (double-edged blades) and thrusting blades. I do not know if they are allowed to use other sorts of double-edged blades. I don't believe they can further train the skill unless allowed by their class, but they can always improve on it with practice. Others please correct me if I am wrong! (Note to self: This is added at character creation, by the room program where race is chosen [30012], rather than coded into the race file.)

Also start with bows iirc, Raona.
