And frankly, the only downsides of half-ogres are -1 IQ - which is manageable - and the Social Stigma and Ugly appearance, and social abilities aren't really part of the ninja's niche anyway.

Besides, anime and manga series focusing on ninja frequently have ninjas of the "strong but dumb" archetype, and these were at least as much of an inspiration for DF: Ninja as real world history - likely more so. So who am I to argue? It's not like the whole Dungeon Fantasy series takes itself terribly seriously anyway...

True enough. But what of us cloistered, stuffy, dusty,
& bookish types that like our DF more down to Earth
or at least closer to the OD&D/AD&D baseline? :-) And
I agree, I can't even believe a Pixie is a valid PC. Might
as well play a Supers game instead (Wasp from the
Avengers, I'm looking at you!).

What is the default campaign setting for DF? I didn't
think Yrth was this wild. Speaking of which, I just got
my hardback from Amazon for Banestorm. I should probably
check the races real quick. :)
