I'm kicking around an idea here.
Looking for a race with a racial Tumble bonus. Preferably not Small, definitely with 30' or greater base move.

Trying to get to that DC:40 Tumble check for 10' steps really early, without using a bunch of feats (Item Familiar, Skill Focus(Tumble), Acrobatic)

Illumian with the Uur sigil gets you a +2 bonus on all DEX-based checks and DEX-based skill checks, so Tumble counts there. 30' move speed.

It's indirect, but an azurin could spend their racial bonus feat on Shape Soulmeld for the Acrobat Boots and then invest their racial essentia in it, gaining a +4 insight bonus on Tumble (and also on Balance, Escape Artist, and Jump, because the Acrobat Boots are pretty sweet). Still 30' move speed.

There's this cool race named humans (you may have heard of them) that can get Skill Focus (Tumble) for free. Strongheart halflings even get another +2 dex to go with it!


Alternatively, a jermlaine gets +6 to dexterity, but is also tiny.

And 20ft. move:


Strongheart halflings have all the halfling racial traits given in Chapter 2 of the Player’s Handbook...

Mountain Spirit Folk from Unapproachable East.
Medium, 30ft movement, +2 to a bunch of skills including Tumble. No stat bonuses or penalties.

Air Goblin from Unearthed Arcana.
Small, 30ft movement, +4 Dexterity. Among other things, this means +2 Tumble.

Chaond from Monster Manual II, with the Lesser Planetouched variant rule.
Medium, 30ft movement, +4 Dexterity, +2 Tumble

Shadowswyft from Planar Handbook, with the Lesser Planetouched variant rule.
Medium, 40ft movement, +2 Dexterity.
I mention them since you seem to appreciate high movement speeds.

Wispling from Fiend Folio, with the Lesser Planetouched variant rule.
Small, 20ft movement, +4 Dexterity.


If Lesser Planetouched are allowed, go Chaond.
