Half-Aarakocra Half-Elf (Aarako)
Aarako are the result of an Aarakocra and Elves spending a night together in passion. Physicly looking like and elf, the only obvious difference is their hair. Aarako have feathers for hair, some as long as peacocks to as short as a hummingbirds, all the colours of the rainbow, to the pitch black of a ravens. The feathers move with the Aarakos facial expressions and can produce some strange hair styles with strange moods.
The Aarakos have gone a little crazy however with their detachment from the sky, they love the thrill of speed and jumping and some believe that it’s better then flying. However, they are looked down upon by the Aarakocra, believing they are cursed.
Aarakos love to sing, and Aarakos bards can often be seen running through the streets singing about their love for life.
+ 4 Dexterity, +2 Charisma, - 2 Strength, -2 Constitution, -2 Wisdom. Lightweight bone structure and the grace of the elven blood make the Aarako a delicate but lithe race.
Medium: As Medium creatures, Aarakos have no special bonuses or penalties due to their size.
Aarako base land speed is 30 feet.
Low-Light Vision: An Aarako can see twice as far as a human in starlight, moonlight, torchlight, and similar conditions of poor illumination. She retains the ability to distinguish color and detail under these conditions.
+2 racial bonus on Balance, Climb, Jump, Perform: Sing, and Spot checks. Aarakos like to reach high places and jump, giving them the feeling of flying they so long for. Thus, they are constantly looking out for a good launching pad.
Climb and Jump use Dex instead of Str.
-2 circumstance penalty on all attack and skill roles when movement is restricted. Aarakos hate being confined anymore then they all ready are and panic when they don’t’ have the normal freedom of movement that they are used to.
-1 circumstance penalty on attack and skill roles if the Aarako has not moved more then 10ft within a minute. Even as they dream the Aarakos are moving, they become edgy when they are forced to sit or stand in one place for too long.
Aarakos fail all staring contests after 20 seconds.
Natural Abilities: Fast Movement
A Aarako’s land speed is faster than normal by +10 feet. This benefit applies only when he is wearing light or no armor and carrying no more then a light load. This bonus does stack with the barbarian’s Fast Movement.
Automatic Languages: Common and (Elven or Auran).
Bonus Languages: Any (other than secret languages, such as Druidic)
Favoured Class: Bard. A multiclass Aarakos Bard class does not count when determining whether he takes an experience point penalty.
Level Adjustment: +1
