\============================================================/

You gave a brief sigh of frustration as you read, for the thousandth time and more, your base sheet.

Most of the abilities on it are next to useless...

Trapsense? You know this dungeon inside and out, you have been over every inch of the first three levels twelve times or more, and can evade every trap in it without trying.

Pickpocket? The heroes that come through here these days you have a 0% chance against, and it costs MP that would be better spent elsewhere.

Bobbietraps? That damage would barely phase someone of YOUR level, let alone the people who command the parties that come in here, and no one is foolish enough to do so without another Rogue with Trapsense: so then they just have the tank trip it and heal him back up.

And as for what you get from your race: while the "Ghoul's Touch" is a mainstay of your tactics you honestly would rather be Human: fewer drawbacks, more advantages.

You close the screen in disgust, and start thinking about how to use the five ghouls that spawned with you to best advantage, you are feeling frisky today and are in a mood to sell their un-lives dearly against the first group of adventurers who comes calling.
