So this is my first time making homebrewed races and I'd just like to have some more experienced homebrewers look over them. All ideas and criticisms are welcome!
Thank You.
Human
Human Racial Traits
Medium: Humans are medium creatures.
Normal Speed: Humans have a base speed of 30 feet.
Eager Learner: Humans receive an extra 4 skill points at first level and 1 bonus skill point every level after that.
Talented: Humans receive one bonus feat at first level.
Rat Folk
Long ago a village of humans lived in peace. But that ended when a powerful wizard of the First Race decided to use them in a magical experiment. Using his powerful magics he gave each villager the form of a rat. Horrified by their change they hid in the wilderness of the world. Only recently have they come out of hiding and begun to interact with other people again.
