Were you hoping to get the 'Large' template and reach? Or something else? The other stuff I see is the<em>Stability</em>(which is kind of attached to the large Template), a proficiency, and the<em>Sterner Stuff</em>feat.<br/><br/>One possibility (just as an idea) might be attaching an<em>Elemental Heritage</em>to your Human (which seems legit in the rules normally?) and then if you select Earth it gives you<em>DR 2/Blunt</em>and<em>Sterner Stuff</em>in exchange for a Spd reduction instead of an Elemental sensitivity. Since there seem to be several ways to get a +10' bonus to Speed this might be an option to make your character 'more powerful than most humans'? Another option I see (although this isn't usually available to humans?) is the Orc/Goblin "Western Horde" which grants Thick Hide 3.<br/><br/>I might be missing the point entirely, if so I'm sorry, I'm just sort of juggling bits and pieces and trying to understand how they all fit together and can be used to tweak characters.
