Your mail prompted me to update the rules following our discussions at
the last session, so I have made some changes.
> 1) as mentioned at the last session. Re: movement of pixies and flying skills:

I still disagree, the Drake has better movements, but gets little
else. As a level 1 character a pixie gets all the benefits of race and
class. I have fixed the entry in the rules though. It now states:
Speed: 3 squares, fly 6 squares (Altitude Limit 6)
> 2) The pixie racial bonus to skills:
> should this be +2 Perception?
> and possible +2 Acrobatics?
Fixed:
Skill Bonuses: Perception +2
> 3) The -5 Stealth penalty due to buzzing, does this apply even when walking?
Yes.
> 4) The Resist 5 Arcane:
> Does this apply to damage from all powers with the Arcane keyword? or is it a saving throw bonus.
Applies to all arcane damage.
> 5) Pixies should have Racial Proficiency with Shortbow? (Otherwise sleep arrow etc would cost a feat to use properly)
No, they shouldn't.
These powers apply to any ranged weapons.
> Also, I had an idea for a new Handicap:
> Can't stand the sight of Blood:
> Whilst you are bloodied, you are weakened.(Attacks deal half damage)
I have changed the name to "Weak Stomach" and have added it to the
rules. "Can't Stand the Sight of Blood" was a bit of a mouth full.
> if you are Ok with this, I will take it as a handicap (quite ironic for a Cleric, huh?)
No problem.
