this was approved by me. however I believe snowy's snow elf PR also modified the drow and half drow stats after they spoke with balance. I don't know if that will cause any conflict. its the same state change but I don't know if that will cause any issue.

[Telvayne]

It's overall ready to go if at some point we want to expedite the changes and have snowy cut them from theirs just for the sake of it.

Removes the least relevant stat from fDrow while horcs keep their giant +2 str; I don't have strong feelings about hollowkin or rakshari con but the changes to the actually problematic races don't fix them or change anything significant.

horcs will never lose their +2 strength

Horcs currently fine the way they are. They are quite discriminated.

[Pidgey-chan]

Discrimination is not an excuse for poor balancing and doubly so when this "discrimination" doesn't lock them out of roles that are powerful both socially and in combat; see MAA, forest enforcer, etc. It's time to accept that some stats are more important than others. Horcs aren't suffering from their int penalty and the game would be better off if extremes like +2 str were instead +1.
