KOBOLDS, LIZARD MEN, OGRES, ORCS, TROGLODYTES, and TROLLS.


These are then divided into 'shamans' and 'witch doctors' which are respectively a sawn off cleric and a sawn off cleric/magic user. Very restricted spell lists and most of the other abilities cut off.

Thanks for this

Giant Shamans here we come.


Also Troll Shamans!
