I'd like to add that "race" on the menu.
Where and how (if you're willing to help) would I do that?

I was thinking maybe I could edit the Game_Player, or Game_Actor and define it there, but I'm not sure.

thanks.

Are you defining the race or do you want the player to do it?

I will be defining the race.
That's why I want it to show, since each race will have different characteristics, special skills, etc..

Just put this above main:

class Window_Base < Window
  def draw_actor_race(actor, x, y)
    @race_id = ["1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8"]
    self.contents.draw_text(x, y, 150, 32, "#{@race_id[actor.id - 1]}")
  end
end

Now only rename the 1 - 8 strings to your character's race, depending how they are ordered in the database. Means for character 1 in the database string 1 would be his race.
Now you only need to use draw_actor_race(actor, x, y) to show the race. If you want it to show in the Menu, place it in Window_MenuStatus in the refresh method.
