    Default Help finding the right race...

    I'm looking for options for a race with an Int bonus, no Wis penalty, and no level adjustment. Please cite which book it comes from if possible.

    It is what it is unless it is what it isn't. Or isn't what it is. But if it isn't what it isn't then it is what it is.

    Dungeon! game currently being run. If this tickles your fancy, and you'd like to be notified when the next round of signups opens, come and say hi in the OOC Thread!

    Fire Elf (Unearthed Arcana): Dex +2, Con -2, Int +2, Cha -2. Like grey elf, but with more of a smoky/toasty flavor.

    Lesser Tiefling (Player's Guide to Faerun): +2 Dex, +2 Int, -2 Cha. Humanoid with Extraplanar subtype.

    Savage Progression Drow (WotC online article): +2 Dex, -2 Con, +2 Int. You can just skip/ignore the 2 racial class levels.

    Arcane Gnomes from Dragon #291: -2 Str, +2 Con, +2 Int, -2 Wis ,UMD is always a class skill (*Bazinga!*), no speak with animals, favored class wizard.

    Dragonwrought Kobold can get up to +3 Int based on the age category.

    You might actually do well to ask this question in the Homebrew forum as well... also there are two MAJOR threads that have lists of links to races.

    A valant attempt at an index.

    As long as I am at it, let me see if any of MY creations fit the bill...
    Well, if you don't mind 10 racial HD for a +10 bonus to INT and your GM is feeling frisky you could try a favored of the traveller god. I didn't list an LA for them but +0 could be argued to be quite reasonable.
    With similar caviats, and if the game is high enough level that you can get a perminant item of flight to make up for the 0 speed (or you can cast Overland Flight or similiar), you might try a medium sized Lord of Rest... 2 RHD, +2 INT, and some interesting RP opportunities since logically someone is going to end up sleeping on you when camp gets made... of course I could see many players being "quite illogical" about that.

    Might I ask your build? Classes that run off of Int (Wizard, Archivist, Artificer, Beguiler, Psychic Rogue, etc) can generally dump Wis to 10 or lower.
