159     Descriptions on classes:
160    
161     race attacktype restrictions immunities prot./vuln.
162     fireborn fire,phys no armour, fire vuln:ghosthit
163     no weapons poison drain,cold
164    
165     Fireborns are supposed to be fire spirits. They're closely in tune with
166     magic and are powerful and learn magic easily. Being fire spirits, they
167     are immune to fire and poison, and vulnerable to cold. They are vulnerable
168     to ghosthit and drain because being mostly non-physical, anything which
169     strikes directly at the spirit hits them harder....
170    
171     race attacktype restrictions immunities prot./vuln.
172     Quetzalcoatl physical no armour fire vuln:paral
173     poison,cold
174    
175     Quetzalcoatl's are now born knowing the spell of burning hands, but
176     because of their negative wisdom bonus, they have a very hard time learning
177     new spells. Their maximum natural wisdom is 13. With the high intelligence
178     bonus, they will typically have many spellpoints. They can be very
179     devastating at low level due to their low natural ac and can make mincemeat
180     out of low-level monsters. However, at midlevel, they really begin to have
181     problems because they cannot use armour.
182    
183    
184     race attacktype restrictions immunities prot./vuln.
185     Wraith cold,phys none ghostgit,drain prot:col,phys
186     vuln: fire
