*1 == Dwarves receive a +2 die bonus to resisting diseases
*2 == Trolls and Minotaurs have a +1 Reach for Armed/Unarmed Comabt
*3 == Trolls have dermal armor, gaining one Body die
*4 == Minotaurs have a pair of horns that will do (Str)M physical damage.
This attack does not benefit from the +1 reach, though.
*5 == Gnomes have a natural 1 die Task Pool due to their inquisitive
nature and an uncanny knack for looking at things in an unlogical
and imaginative manner. This task pool can be used for any technical
skills that default to intelligence, and is in addition to any dice
gained from Cyber or Bioware.

See Ya in Shadows,
