Hello Giantitp Forums, long have I browsed here looking for advice on matters, and I have finally come asking, am I being to harsh?
A friend of mine is creating his own race, the Foxfolk. I have been trying to limit the abilities of make it yourself races, making them more a play of passion and roleplay then of a power boost, so I ask for advice on my decisions.
Originally he wanted this:
Fox Folk Racial Stats:
-+3 Dex +3 Int +2 Cha -2 Con
-Base Speed: 40ft
-lowlight vision
-Racial Skills: Hide +2, Lis +2, Move Silently +2
-Langs: Vulpin, Common, Elf
-Favoured Class: Ranger
-AC bonus +1
-Level adjustment +1 (penalty of 1 level)
Size: Medium
Base Height: M: 3"6' F: 3"4' +2d4
Base Weight: 65lbs * 1d6
But I have argued for a slight change and lessening of the abilities;
Fox Folk Racial Stats:
-+3 Dex +3 Int -2 Con -2 Wis
-Base Speed: 40ft
-lowlight vision
-Racial Skills: Hide +2, Lis +2, Move Silently +2
-Langs: Vulpin, Common, Elf
-Favoured Class: Wizard
-AC bonus +1
-Level adjustment +1 (penalty of 1 level)
Size: Medium
Base Height: M: 3"6' F: 3"4' +2d4
Base Weight: 65lbs * 1d6
Not much but this choice was based on
Tiefling characters possess the following racial traits.
+2 Dexterity, +2 Intelligence, -2 Charisma.
Medium size.
A tiefling’s base land speed is 30 feet.
Darkvision out to 60 feet.
Racial Skills: Tieflings have a +2 racial bonus on Bluff and Hide checks.
Racial Feats: A tiefling gains feats according to its class levels.
Special Attacks (see above): Darkness.
Special Qualities (see above): Resistance to cold 5, electricity 5, and fire 5.
Automatic Languages: Common, Infernal. Bonus Languages: Draconic, Dwarven, Elven, Gnome, Goblin, Halfling, Orc.
Favored Class: Rogue.
Level adjustment +1.
Any Feedback would be much appreciated!
