I was referring to the fact that ¹they have good hair, ² they are smartest in norrath ³they can't be shamans or thieves and ⁴ they are excellent stonemasons.
Furthermore lore indicates they were once normal looking until Qwelicious turned their skin dark.

Let me clarify that I've always found it funny, sad, and fucked up that they weren't simply classified as human. That could have been handled with the starting city selection, a model change, and a different lore box. Humans from Odus, the Erudites,...

You find it funny, sad and fucked up that Erudites were included in a fantasy game at all, what's more with any respect.

I wouldn't want to be associated with a race of people that would produce thoughts such as these. So I can't blame them. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

It’s not that serious

It would have been more racist if barbarians were black and erudite were Asian

The fact that erudite are brown is no different than the fact that dark elves are blue...

Compare a wood elf warrior to a dark led warrior...

Identical stats.. but dark elf has about 30 more points of intelligence...

I guess the elves are a good way to frame that. Similar anatomy with different names to highlight cultural differences. In closing, I am very mad.
