New species: Mullvad
Say hello to the mole people ( I would suggest "Mullvad", which apparently is the norwegian word for mole). As for flavor, I would suggest the something along the following lines:
"The mole people are primitive underground dwelling humanoids that use their claws and talons to dig tunnels for their colonies. The underground adaptation has left their eyesight poor, but given them the uncanny ability to blend into the darkness. In addition, they are very good at detecting their prey by sensing the vibrations through the ground".
1) It should get the nightstalker mutation at first level and have it improve in power as the character levels up.
2) It should get the antenae mutation and be unable to wear helmets. However I think that the flavour should be changed and the effect explained as some sort of tremorsense.
3) It should have claws and talons.
4) It should gain the ability at some level (say 7 or so) to use a modified version of the Dig spell in exchange of Breath. The modified version should dig just one square.
5) As far as aptitudes go, I would suggest that it be good with unarmed and dodging, bad with weapons and magic, except maybe earth magic.
This should be a fairly easy species to implement I hope, since all the effects are already there. Do you think that it is interesting enough?
