Help for races (General Help)
---------------------------------------------------
  In The Two Towers, your quest is that of Bilbo and Frodo, to
find and destroy the One Ring (although Bilbo did not actually
know that it was his quest, at the time).  
  Supporting this, we allow players to be only the 'good' races
which would have a part in finishing this quest.  The races are
(at the time of writing) :
dunlending, dunedain, hobbit, dwarf, silvan, and sindar.

  Race affects statistics, and help is available for each
of the different races.

Help for dunlending (General Help)
---------------------------------------------------
        Take a look at yourself and tell me what you see. That`s a dunlending,
hopefully. They are the average race on Two Towers. They aren't as strong
as a Troll, but they are stronger than a hobbit. They aren't as quick and
elusive as an Elf, but they are faster than an Orc. Basically, they are
just average. If you want to make a character that knows a little bit about
a lot of different things then this is your best choice, but if you want
a specialized character that is really good at one particular profession,
then this probably isn't the best choice. Dunlendings are a good race for first
timers, because you can test out lots of different things.
        A note about Theme: Dunlending is an ancestry of people from
the west side of the Misty Mountains.  While the current tribes
of the Dunlendings are in service of Sauron and are considered evil,
those choosing the race of Dunlending are normal citizens of Bree, 
and as ordinary as any man or woman on the street.

Help for dunedain (General Help)
---------------------------------------------------
   The Dunedain are men that ruled the land long ago, but their
numbers have dwindled. Most of these former nobles now exist as rangers
in the woodlands. Legends say that they secretly protect the weaker
races by guarding the forests around their land. The Dunedain are
a noble race, and they seem to have an inner strength that ordinary
men don`t have. They are tall in stature, and can be very
intimidating when they want to be.

Help for silvan (General Help)
---------------------------------------------------
   The Silvan elves are less noble and wise than the Sindar, but they
are generally stronger and better in combat than their more magical
relatives. They closely resemble men, except for the slightly 
pointed ears, and a slighter build. They are familiar with the ways
of magic, but they are not nearly as magical as the Sindar.

---------------------------------------------------
Help for sindar (General Help)
---------------------------------------------------
        The Sindar are the oldest and most noble race in Middle Earth. They
look like Silvan elves, except they tend to be taller, thinner, and quicker.
They are not as strong as most of the other races, but they are very agile.
The Sindar tend to understand magical spells better than the other races, and
they can learn to move about almost completely unnoticed. They make good wizards
or possibly thieves.  They are capable warriors, but aren't as tough 
as Silvan elves.

Help for hobbit (General Help)
---------------------------------------------------
        The hobbits are a race of halflings (short people). They are known
for their quietness and ability to move around without being noticed. They
are not very strong at all, but they are quick. The hobbits are a simple 
race that doesnt understand much about the ways of magic. They make good thieves
and average warriors.

---------------------------------------------------
Help for dwarf (General Help)
---------------------------------------------------
        The dwarves are a hearty race. They tend to be on the short side, but
they pack a lot of punch for their size. They tend to be very strong, and they
can take a lot of punishment. However, they have trouble with learning spells,
and the dwarves are not known for their intellectual prowess. They also tend
to be less than quick at times.
