[4e] EPG / PHB3 style Racial Bonuses
In the Eberron Players Guide and Players Handbook 3, there are quite a few races that have bonuses in the style: +2 to Stat A or B, +2 to Stat C. I personally think all races should have this style of ability, and strive to do so below.
To read: Race, +2 to A or B; +2 C.
Race A B C Bladeling Dex Str Wis Bugbear Dex Con Str Deva Wis Cha Int Dragonborn Cha Int Str Duergar Wis Cha Con Drow Dex Wis Cha Dwarf Wis Str Con Eladrin Int Cha Dex Elf Wis Str Dex Gensai Str Dex Int Githyanki Int Wis Con Gnoll Con Str Dex Gnome Int Dex Cha Goblin Cha Con Dex Goliath Str Wis Con Half-Elf Con Dex Cha Half-Orc Dex Wis Str Halfling Cha Str Dex Hobgoblin Cha Int Con Human * * * Kalashtar Wis Int Cha Kenku Dex Int Cha Kobold Con Cha Dex Longtooth Shifter Str Con Wis Orc Con Wis Str Razorclaw Shifter Dex Int Wis Revenant Dex Int Con Shadar-Kai Int Con Dex Tiefling Cha Con Int Warforged Str Int Con Bullywug Not a race Changeling See EPG Githzerai See PHB3 Minotaur See PHB3 Shardmind See PHB3 Wilden See PHB3
Human: Humans choose from one of the following three ability score pairs:
1) +2 Dex, +2 Int
2) +2 Str, +2 Con
3) +2 Wis, +2 Cha
----
Thoughts, comments, better ideas, less arbitrary stat choices?

Why the bullywug? Why?
Other than that, pretty cool. I actually always wanted a human wizard who was also rather agile, and this gives me quite a bonus. Sweet!

Eladrin should get Cha, not Elves.
Cha/Int, Dex -- Eladren
Wis/Str, Dex -- Elves

Changed. As I said, a lot of it was arbitrary.

That they are useless as a race, as is. More then most monster races. They'd need a serious remake before I think of giving them anything.

But that would be fixing the problem instead of complaining. Obviously I cannot do that.
(More Seriously: Too lazy)

Then I might remake them... possibly... if I can muster enough energy. They're a good idea at the very least. :)
