That's a GREAT idea. That just might be my next campaign, if'n you don't
mind! Or if someone who GMs on IRC can run the game better...

I'd go for an elf, no problem, maybe a dwarf...an ork, POSSIBLY, if he
was fairly human-looking. A troll, doubtful, unless he was really
something special. I think, considering the conservative way I was
brought up (believe it or not!), I'd have biases. Friends with a troll?
Sure. DATE a troll? Probably not. Even though I do prefer that my guys
be taller than me...and I think 9 feet tall is just a bit taller...

That was a joke, really...I was insinuating that I might have enough
facial hair to be a MALE dwarf. :> But of course, I was kidding. I
believe that in SR, female dwarves can be fairly attractive. Especially
with the "human-looking" edge.
