GURPS Dungeon Fantasy Races - 25 point templates

Not to quibble, but you gave one semi-underground race only Night Vision (Dwarf), and two semi-underground races Dark Vision. Perhaps swap Dark Vision out for Night vision there, and give them light sources underground if they live such.

As far as point costs, going with the same costs makes sense, as its more a plug-in-the-template for DF. Adding points to a human also parallels d20 where choosing another race removes 1 feat and some skill points from the total. However, using the idea that humans are a 0-point baseline package, the racial templates could be added for consideration in the optional parts of the class templates (all of them have "a further 20+ points added" sections).
