It's March

Some progress has been made:

• Added Pasht as an unlockable race
• Added character race art for character creation: Faerie, Goblin
• Paladin class abilities: Lay On Hands

I took a small detour to start colourising line art that had been waiting in the sketch pad for a while. There's more waiting, so I will probably interleave this and the character class abilities to keep things fresh.
