OK so for a New campaign im building I decided to re-do the races. The basic concept is that in this universe all races can interbreed as they are all deviations on an original single race.
As such there is a a full blooded and a half adjustment for each race. Take any 2 halfs and combine them for whatever halfbreed you want. Or just take the full blooded as is and dont be a halfbreed.
HUMANS: They never get enough. I know they need something else. Advice is very welcome.
HUMAN RACIAL TRAITS
Medium: As Medium creatures, humans have no special bonuses or penalties due to their size.
Human base land speed is 30 feet.
2 extra skill feats at 1st level, because humans are quick to master specialized tasks and varied in their talents.
4 extra skill points at 1st level and 1 extra skill point at each additional level, since humans are versatile and capable. (The 4 skill points at 1st level are added on as a bonus, not multiplied in)
Automatic Language: Common. Bonus Languages: Any (other than secret languages, such as Druidic). See other racial lists for common languages. Humans mingle with all kinds of other folk and thus can learn any language found in an area.
Favored Class: Any. When determining whether a multiclass human takes an experience point penalty, her highest-level class does not count.
HALF-HUMAN RACIAL TRAITS
Medium: As Medium creatures, Half-humans have no special bonuses or penalties due to their size.
HAlf-Human base land speed is that of the other parent.
1 free skill feat.
1 extra skill point at 1st level and 1 extra skill point at each additional level, since humans are versatile and capable. (The skill point at 1st level is added on as a bonus, not multiplied in.)
Automatic Language: Common. Bonus Languages: Any (other than secret languages, such as Druidic). See other racial lists for common languages. Humans mingle with all kinds of other folk and thus can learn any language found in an area.
Favored Class: Any. When determining whether a multi-class human takes an experience point penalty, her highest-level class does not count.
DWARVES: They may have too much. In my universe giants and dwarves aren't enemies, they get along though. I've designed my dwarves as master craftsmen who sort of lose themselves in their work, not drunken scotsmen.

Darkvision: Dwarves can see in the dark up to 60 feet. Darkvision is black and white only, but it is otherwise like normal sight, and dwarves can function just fine with no light at all.
Stonecunning: This ability grants a dwarf a +2 racial bonus on Search checks to notice unusual stonework, such as sliding walls, stonework traps, new construction, unsafe stone surfaces, shaky stone ceilings, and the like. Something that isn’t stone but that is disguised as stone also counts as unusual stonework. A dwarf who merely comes within 10 feet of unusual stonework can make a Search check as if he were actively searching, and a dwarf can use the Search skill to find stonework traps as a rogue can. A dwarf can also intuit depth, sensing his approximate depth underground as naturally as a human can sense which way is up. Dwarves have a sixth sense about stonework, an innate ability that they get plenty of opportunity to practice and hone in their underground homes.
Weapon Familiarity: Dwarves may treat dwarven waraxes and dwarven urgroshes as martial weapons, rather than exotic weapons.
