And both men and women may use forges, not sure where it says that.Quote from: Gameplay, Race AdvantagesIf you're male, you will also know to work a forge, making high quality arms. If you are a female, you will know how to make fine poisons and herbal potions.It's implied here that males work with forges while females deal with potions and poisons. If females can also use forges then why isn't it mentioned and why would someone want to play as a male Unath when females can uses forges and can make poisons and potions?
Well, thats a rather powergame-y question. This is a roleplaying game, meant to make and play roles. If you want a male Unath for backstory reasons, or just because you want your character male, thats a role to play.As for the Furouth, they're never outright raided by humans because they like to play the fence. Only take the easy targets, while they're away. No need to alienate the people who make the finest jewelry there is. Just outright enslave them, and they can say "Hey. No, bad. We want this to stop, or you selfish rich bastards don't get your precious baubles." And since they physically less than humans, why would they want hordes of them as slaves? They're weaker, so less work, but an easy slave like a Furouth is better than nothing.Can't the humans just enslave some of the jewellers? Yes they're weaker and thus work less but slaves work for free, not to mention their weakness means they're less likely to escape.
