- As for capitalization of race names, easy answer; they're different species rather than ethnic groups. Its also the official way Wizards of the Coast decided to do it, so we go along with that for consistency (as well, since typically we get things like "rock gnome" or whatever, rather than ethnicities that tie to proper places, like, uh, "Waterdeepian humans").
