View Full Version : [3.5] Homebrewin' a race with little wings on its head

On a whim, one of the NPCs in Quisquiliae has hawk wings sprouting from his head. Since I will eventually need to stat him up, I figured I'd start with his race. Here's what I've been thinking so far:
Medium Size
Humanoid (maybe with a subtype?)
+2 Wis
-2 Con
Spot bonus
It needs something interesting, though. A unique racial ability, maybe. Thoughts?

Are you kidding? Feather fall at will (self only). This works only when the creature is not helpless (e.g. unconscious, paralyzed, petrified, etc.) and speak with animals (birds only) 1/day. Caster level for both effects is equal to character level.
Size: Medium
Type: Humanoid
+8 spot racial bonus.
+2 Dex
-2 Con
+2 racial to Jump checks.
+1 to DCs of all spells cast with the [Air] descriptor.
Favored Class: Ranger.
Edit@V: Sound better?

His clan needs the ability to speak with their totem bird at least in a limited way.
"Little brother says there is a dangerous hunter near...."
That alone could make him very cool.
I can't get into having actual wings on the head - it would be so awkward. How about feathers instead of hair and a vestigal claw on each pinky finger?

I doubt he's going to get rid of the wings' location. If you read the OP, he said that the character has already been introduced this way.
