And verily, did Karl Low hastily scribble thusly...
|Just my luck, I'd remain your shorter than average human.
|I don't have the stockiness to really qualify as going "dwarf", and at
5'3",
|I'm just a shade too tall, to boot.

Look. Even if the awakening DID arrive tomorrow, no-one's going Dwarf or Elf
anyway. Elves and Dwarves are BORN, not "awakened".

Ingenticisation is called that because it only works on humans TRANSFORMING
into one of the other races, and the only races that suffered that indignity
were Orks and Trolls.

In fact, as trolls are homo ingentis, that's where it got it's name from.

I suppose someone transforming into an ork could be said to be undergoing
Vulgarisation....
