Badly wrong twice in one day.
Well, at least I was confident because the rule as written is broken. All that stops a character from being absurdly powerful is GM fiat. So where to you draw the line? Shell Deer? Trolls? Giants? Dragons? Seems best to just limit them to humans who don't get a species keyword because they're not different from humans.
Time to mark down another adjustment to the rules...
