    Design a Racial! In this thread you GET to be racist :3

    I'll go first...
    Draenei have, since the corruption of Archimonde and Kil'jaeden, been on the run from the burning legion. Many of their race have fallen over the millenia in this chase. I propose the new Draenei racial be based on the spirits of the fallen and be called, for lack of a better name: Strength of the Fallen.

    My idea for this racial would work somewhat similar to the Darkmoon Card: Greatness and Death's Choice/Verdict...however obviously a smaller version

    Strength of the Fallen: Increases your greatest stat by 3% for 12 seconds (3% at cataclyms levels should be a rather large amount of str/int/stam)

    Or, to further integrate the mastery stat it could increase your mastery by 5% or some amount that's balanced with the other racial talents.

    Anyway, that's my idea for a new Draenei racial, what ideas (hopefully rooted in lore) would you have for your own favorite race's new racial?

    Increase healing done by food and increase food buffs by 3%

    Orcs - I'M GREEN!
    Increased evasion in forested areas >>

    Undead - Superfluous Organs
    5% Lower chance of being hit by a critical
    or
    Rotting flesh
    The scent of your corpse and the sight of your exposed innards causes enemies to lose 10% hit rating when targeting you

    Gnomes - smaller targets!
    Increase evasion by X depending on level

    Blood Elves - Ballerina training

    Dwarf:
    [Iron Belly]
    Whenever the Dwarf drinks an alcoholic beverage stamina is increased by "x"% for 30 minutes.

    This will not only be a cool racial, but it will promote Dwarf drinking habits!

    Undead:
    [Bad Breath]
    Melee Range
    Instant

    Targeted enemy has an "x"% chance to miss for 10 sec. (2 min cooldown.)

    ^ It speaks or itself, I would cough if I were fighting an Undead close up :-X
