Edit:  ***I have merged this thread into Mike's "empty slots" thread***  Please do NOT reply here.

When working out race priorities for my China setting, I stumbled upon an interesting idea to fill the D race priority.  This is the Exemplar.

Exemplars are humans, they are merely extraordinary individuals of their nationality.  A Welsh Exemplar would be a crack shot with a bow -- even if he had never picked one up before.  A Odean exemplar would be able to walk through blizzards in light clothes, and be tough as a bear.  A Mongol exemplar could ride like the wind and gather armies in a matter of months.  They are simply the best that their nation has to offer.

Exemplars are a D racial choice, and double all bonuses associated with their nationality.

What do you all think?  I'm thinking about tripling the bonuses and making them a C choice (so that they are cooler but rarer.)  Conceivably, there could be two levels -- Exemplars and Paragons, say.  Any other riffs on this concept?
