This is the official discussion for the racial bonuses & weaknesses.
This is where you can offer feedback on balancing issues, or suggested implementations.

Everything I've added for racial traits was derived from ѕaιnт apollyon's lore document & discussion seen here!

As I mentioned before, I'm totally open to feedback, especially if something feels unbalanced!

I found through my play through with this that the poison immunity gave a lot of benefit, so to counterbalance fire is absolutely devastating. I've messed with the numbers every day for about a week now, & I've found that I can play with my partner without being needlessly immortal in comparison lol

BUT I also have other mods, like RPG growth, which give me benefits to certain things. So if something feels imbalanced to you, I may not know about it bc I have other mods! Basically, don't feel like you can't share your thoughts. I want this to work well with or without other mods :)
