Humans are a fairly easy species thanks to their fast advancement in character level and their balanced, but overall good, aptitudes and stats. However, for better or for worse, Humans lack the specialization of other species, which means that another species can often outperform them in a given background, even if that species is much worse than a Human outside certain niches. (For example, Minotaurs are tougher and more skilled than Humans in melee combat, even though they perform much worse than Humans at spellcasting.)
