That sounds like original old Basic D&D.
My class is "Dwarf"! :D

If they were alongside the standard classes, I would actually welcome "Dwarf", "Elf", and even "Human" as prebuilt class/multiclass templates. It both helps you to see what the bulk of people would be (not the specialists), and also really strengthens the theme of races. What would "human" be you ask? A generic "hero", the sort we see in many fantasy stories. Someone who can do a bit of everything, a jack of all trades who doesn't sing like a bard. Some small measure of spellcasting, but drawn from all of the classes (switching on my 3E brain, perhaps a 1st-4th level spell progression like the Paladin and Ranger), with some good fighting ability but not the specialties of the fighter.

So does my shortened Dwarf entry there hit all the points needed to play one (aside from stats that is)?
