A question on the dwarves,

Most of their racial traits I agree with, but why are they shock resistant? They typically have high magic resistance,
but protection from lightning strikes is new to me.

I could remove the shock res - I put it in there for three reasons.

1. Dwarfs use rune lightning and this reduces friendly fire damage.
2. Dwarfs resist magical energy - lightning in dom3 is usually magical energy, unlike fire or poison.
3. Dwarfs are low to the ground, very solid, associated with earth. Scientifically they'd probably be good targets for lightning because they wear lots of armour, but still, they give a sense of being 'grounded' in the sense that they might dissapate such energy without getting fried too bad.

It would only be 25% res anyway, nothing major. But like I said, could easily get rid of it.
