Infinite Stamina overhaul
We have multiple pages that give infinite stamina off either undead or mechanical nature only. This goes against the Stamina page saying: "Please note that characters that are mechanical, undead, or incorporeal/non-physical (including ghosts) should not automatically be assumed to possess infinite stamina, unless this trait has been clearly defined within the series or by the lore."
So unfortunately since MÖRK BORG is very light on explaining stuff, it means all of these (And anything else I missed), should have their infinite stamina removed and replaced with Average.

Power Additions

Prowlers should have in their optional abilities Sleight of Hands off the specialty of stealing objects.
Gutterborn Scum should also get Sleight of Hands off the Filthy Fingersmith ability.
Goblins should get Athletic Human since they have the Quick trait, with it raising their attack/defense to DR14, which is considered a hard difficulty according to the book.
 
I feel like infinite stamina would be implicitly fine as the guys are frequently just like. Sitting in tombs for an eternity, waiting to beat up a guy? There is a reason why it was the default assumption before, it doesn't really take much to justify it. For what it's worth, the undead are referred to as "sleepless" in the book, also.

Power additions are fine.

(the above only really applies to undead like zombies and skeletons, since I don't know anything that would imply infinite stamina for the dolls or grotesques or liches, since they seem to work more on a magical energy source)

Well the Dolls are also zombies, it's an undead child inside a porcelain doll.
Anyways, how would you word the infinite stamina for the undead then?

Does "Undead are often found standing in one location for eons with no signs of fatigue, with them being called sleepless as well" work?
I assume the other creature types can have their infinite stamina removed yah?

I didn't open the Undead Doll link and did not know it was referring to the dolls in the book, hah.

I think that works fine. I stand by liches being excluded because they implicitly feed on magic, but the other undead seem to just function forever without rest.
 
Alright added the powers to the relevant pages and removed infinite speed from the agreed upon pages.
I'll update the stamina sections of the undead to add a better reasoning later, but otherwise this CRT can be closed.
