Some ideas for new subraces. The first two of them should probably be limited to humans and other weaker races, for balance and flavor.
Genius
+10 to INT, WIS, CHR. Everything else is average. +100% EXP.
Athlete
+10 STR, DEX, CHR. Everything else is average, as per Genius. +100% EXP.
(The idea of these two is mostly to reduce the need for stat-gain for certain types of characters. They level more slowly to compensate.)
Lich
Think Skeleton... With magical powers. +2 INT and WIS, +1 CON, +20% SP, +50% EXP. Vulnerable to fire by default, but resist poison, shards, cold, and nether. Bonus to Magic and Magic-Device skills as well.

Re: New subraces
I think these are a bit overpowered, but these are cool ideas, specially the Lich one.

Re: New subraces
The genius subrace is a super-powered hermit, but without the corresponding decrease in Str and Con. I prefer the hermit idea- if you pump up one set of stats then decrease others. An experience modifier doesn't do much- it just means killing more dragons in the mountains.
