    Yes, but not it's not unique to the character per se, it's unique to the armor that's unique to the race. Umm, let me look for a citation post and then I'll clarify what I mean more.

    I am sure you looked it up and could not find any info, Well each race gets unique armor that give them their race bonus, you can always trade extra with friends and then you get the other race bonus for your race. Basically the race bonus is short term depending on how social you are.

    No, all races are pretty much identical, the only thing different about the races are the recipes you start with, and some aesthetic things like the look of your ship.

    Edit: It's also been mentioned that the novakid's racial special will probably be giving off light.

    You start the game with access to your race's armor. Note that races will eventually gain access to each others armor. Starting off an Apex, I could eventually get Hylotl armor if I wanted to, and so forth.

    Here you go, copypasted from wiki article

    Each set of racial armor has passive bonuses that will provide an extra ability when the set is equipped.
    • Apex: Increases run speed and jumping height.
    • Avian: Allows the player to glide.
    • Floran: Sunlight is converted into Energy
    • Glitch: Increases mining speed
    • Human: Extra Inventory space
    • Hylotl: Allows the player to breathe underwater and swim faster.
    Players can eventually obtain armors of races other than their own to receive the associated bonuses.

    I'm going crazy not being able to find the post I want... There was a post with updates that had all the revisions in the last update I believe by blue? I think it pretty much has what has been said already but if anyone can find it before me it has a lot of useful information.

    Apex sounds like a good choice they are bad on the aztecs which is pretty awesome.

    Juice Box thinks this thread is silly, a simple google search could provide the answer.

    I still think that racial perks would be quite more interesting than armor ones anyway

    This is made not to restrict players to certain races just because of the bonus.

    Someone will likely make a mod that gives the races the perks rather than the armour, so I wouldn't worry too much.
