*Level 1: '''Soaring''' A variation on actual flying, this ability launches a Grecht into a sky version of a room; after a short time he or she then automatically lands back on the ground.
*Level 25: '''Air Stability''' This passive skill stops a Grecht from being blown into another room while flying.
*Level 50: '''Nightsight''' This skill lets a Grecht see during the night, allowing him or her to look into adjacent rooms even when dark.
*Level 75: '''Lunar Regeneration''' This skill passively regenerates a Grecht's health and mana when the moon is in the sky. HELP ASTRONOMY details more about the movements of the moon.


==Roleplay==

The Grecht race is rich with roleplay potential, with an entire plateau claimed as their racial home. A range of backstories and character types can be pinned to these origins - from warriors to priests to rebels to hunters, nearly all character concepts can fit well with the Grecht race. The physical details, such as the ability to soar, open the door to fun physical roleplay ideas and give players lots of ambient emote potential.

A Grecht.

Physically, Grecht tend to feature large ears, angular features and have dark skin, ranging from pure black to greys and browns, with leathery flaps connecting their arms to their bodies, which give them a limited, soaring sort of flight.

Stark black to slate-grey in appearance, the Grecht have limited powers of flight, able to soar thanks to the thin wing-flaps connecting their arms to their bodies. Lithe and thin, the Grecht are a people well-adapted to the atmospheric reaches of their homeland.
