So for a friend's campaign starting in a few weeks, I wanted to do something... special. I have always wanted to be a werebear, but it was always impossible when we started with low ECLs. We decided that this (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showpost.php?p=8183188&postcount=306) is acceptable. Then I though, why stop there? I want to be something really weird and my DM has allowed me to combine the half-dragon and half-minotaur templates to form my starting race with the following...
Size Large
Type Dragon
Natural Armor +6
Move Speed 40’, 80’ fly average
Str +12
Con +4
Wis +2
Cha +2
Lvl +4
Bonus Feat Track
Lowlight Vision
Darkvision 60’
Scent
Immune to sleep and paralysis
+2 Search, Spot, and Listen
Gore d8
Bite d8
2 Claws d6
1/day Breath Weapon 6d8 60’ Line of Acid (copper) or 30’ Cone of Cold(silver)
Ref for half DC = 10 + ½ racial HD + Con mod
+4 to escape Maze
Always know which way is North
LA +4
I would be ECL 5 with 8 hp, though. There are a lot of fun templates between these two pdfs I have by crystal keep, and I have not gone through them all. These two were just attractive after a quick look. We have 2 or 3 clerics with 1 or 2 multi classing as a sorc or wiz, I think, and something else. We will also have a bard and a ranger/rogue at least. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? I mainly just wanted to share and ask if there is something useful I could actually make this into. I am going to talk to him about LA buyoff, but I am not exactly sure how it works, myself. Would I only be able to buy the first lvl off at lvl 12?
thank you kindly, sirs and madams
