The mention of pixies and giants brought another point to mind. What about the size of armor? In most games I've played it doesn't matter what size your character is when it comes to using armor. A tall thin human character can kill a short fat dwarf and toss the dwarf's armor on without problem. Is this a case of balance or laziness? Surely balance could be created by making sure all of the races have an equal opportunity to have comperable armor and weapons. Would a bit of realism here help the RP environment?
