mmm... and if you make 2 custom race special, one for Strength and one for Con? and under race limit to "1" the custom ability total...

Remember, Adam, Mowgli's asked to figure this out on his own, so he can learn it for next time, so you may want to remove the answers from your post (you are correct, BTW).

This would also work. Since the "+2 to an attribute" option that humans use already exists, I think it's faster to modify that to only choose from those two attributes than to build a new set of abilities to pick from, so that's why I'm leading Mowgli through this method.

Got it!

Final solution:

Copy the "+2 to One Attribute" Racial Special
Change the Custom Expression to "component.BaseAttr & (thingid.aSTR | thingid.aCON)"
Give it a new name and unique ID
Save and test.

Thanks, Matthias!
