Race Specific Skills(Discussion)
Each race in GW2 should have skills which are only available to members of that race. Things like giving the Charr biting and clawing attacks or the Asura energy-saving enchantments, are generally what I have in mind. I'm not saying that these skills should necessarily be oriented towards a single theme for each race, but that would be the assumption.


 * Why this is a good idea
 * Allows for some additional race-specialization without too drastically affecting the balance of the game


 * Why it may not work out
 * If handled badly, could result in serious weakening and/or overpowering of certain race-profession combinations
 * If these skills of each race are in a distinct 'area' (like charr getting attacks and asura energysaving skills) they will be very profession-based, a charr monk or asuran warrior would be quite useless. One could however consider having one skill tied to each profession, kind of like the Factions luxon/kurzick skills. Like these they could have distinct looks for each race, while doing effectively the same, keeping the balance intact.
